ABTRS’s Guide to Finding a Sober Living or Transitional Housing
A Better Today Recovery Services understands that nothing is more intimidating than entering the real world after drug and alcohol treatment. When you walk out of our doors you will have to answer that one question that has been on your mind for months.
Will I abuse drugs and alcohol again?
Relapse is one of the biggest fears that our patients share with us. Sometimes this fear can seep into dreams causing nightmares, even night terrors. This is why after care which includes sober living can play such a big part in long-lasting recovery from drugs and alcohol.
Sober living environments or transitional housing are temporary living arrangements for individuals who are recovering from substance abuse and are transitioning from the safety and structure of an inpatient treatment program, back into the real world. Sober Living is a place where recovering individuals can practice tools and techniques in the real world while still surrounded with a support group of staff and peers in recovery.
Patients in sober living environment can benefit from having a safe place to rest their heads away from drugs and alcohol while they work to rebuild their lives without abusing substances
Sober livings offer a wide variety of lifestyle arrangements and levels of accountability. A Better Today Recovery Services offers our patients transportation to survey sober living homes as part of our aftercare recommendations. We highly encourage a sober living lifestyle after treatment to ensure our patients are off to a good start and surrounded by good people.
