What is Sober?
Sober refers to the state of being free from the influence of alcohol or drugs. For individuals in recovery from substance use disorders, maintaining sobriety means abstaining from substances and actively working to avoid relapse. Sobriety is not only a physical state but also a commitment to living a healthier, substance-free lifestyle.
For many individuals, achieving and maintaining sobriety requires ongoing support through addiction treatment programs, therapy, and peer support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA). Sobriety is a critical goal in addiction recovery, helping individuals regain control of their lives and well-being.
