Relapse prevention is the best defense against relapse.
Social gatherings can be tricky when you're in early sobriety. How do you stay strong when everyone around you is sipping on their favorite drinks? In this episode of '12oz of Sobriety', hosts Pat and Robbie tackle this very issue. They dive into the pros and cons of non-alcoholic beer, a hot topic among those new to sobriety. While some see it as a safe substitute, Pat and Robbie highlight its potential pitfalls.
Did you know that even non-alcoholic beer can trigger the same reward centers in your brain as the real thing? This can make it a slippery slope back to old habits. Instead, they suggest more fulfilling ways to reward yourself. Whether it's indulging in a favorite treat or finding joy in activities like sports or movies, there are plenty of ways to enjoy yourself without risking relapse. The hosts also emphasize the importance of having an exit strategy.
If a social event becomes too overwhelming, it's perfectly okay to leave early. Your sobriety comes first. Tune in to hear Pat and Robbie share practical tips and heartfelt advice on how to navigate social events while staying true to your recovery journey.
