Therapy for struggling to get sober
Deciding to get sober is a courageous choice, but it’s often filled with challenges and setbacks. Sobriety can feel daunting, and the journey can be lonely or overwhelming, especially if alcohol or other substances have been a coping mechanism for a long time. You might feel torn between the desire to change and the pull of old habits, leading to frustration, guilt, or even shame when things don’t go perfectly.
about substance misuse
In the early stages of getting sober, you may also face external pressures, whether from social situations, relationships, or personal doubts. The idea of navigating life without alcohol can feel unsettling, and the fear of relapse or setbacks may make it hard to stay focused. But recovery isn’t a straight line—it’s a journey that involves ups and downs, self-compassion, and resilience. Therapy can help you build the emotional strength to persevere through these challenges, while also celebrating your progress along the way.
