My Sober Addiction
This show is for drug addicts in recovery BY a heroin addict in recovery. Living with active addiction is hell and getting sober is an incredible accomplishment. However, it doesn’t end there; we must then maintain our sobriety and assimilate into society as normal, functioning, productive people…all while living sober dealing with triggers and cravings. Of course, addiction recovery does get easier, especially with a community of support. We can only go up from here, sobriety is an opportunity to shine and have an amazing, sober life, so let’s do it!

Being Mindful Of Addictive Traits Now That You’re Living Sober
Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here!
In this episode of My Sober Addiction we are revisiting the idea of being mindful of those traits, those tendencies, we had during active addiction. The thing is, if we really look back on life before and after active addiction, we realize that those traits are part of who we are. We carry them over into life when we are sober in our jobs, exercise and heath, relationships, hobbies, etc. We have to be aware of our mental state and not allow burn out to set in and risk relapse.
In the past, I’ve said that i would recommend someone hire addicts in recovery because of how dedicated they are. Of course that comes with a price to the addict in recovery, you may have higher expectations placed on you to maintain and prove your sobriety. Does that not sound fair? Maybe it isn’t but it’s just the way it is. Unfortunately, addicts do relapse and when they do…well, let’s just not do that.
