FREEDOM FROM ADDICTION

Experience tells us that in order to maintain long-term sobriety we must develop an alcohol and drug-free lifestyle. We must develop new friendships and relationships with other alcohol and drug-free people at work, at home and especially in our leisure hours. We must also replace our previous destructive behaviors with more healthy and productive alternatives.

One of the first steps in developing a drug-free lifestyle is to avoid those people who were directly involved in our former drinking or drug-using lifestyle.

Another important aspect of developing a drug-free lifestyle is to develop a structured daily schedule that we can consistently follow. Structure and organization in our life can be one of our best friends in early sobriety, while a chaotic and disorganized lifestyle may prove to be our worst enemy. It is important not to abandon this structured daily schedule or deviate from it on a regular basis, as it helps replace drug-seeking and using activities with the healthy alternatives that are needed.

DEVELOPING GOALS

While maintaining our sobriety should remain the number one priority in our lives, in order to develop a long-term drug-free lifestyle, it is necessary to identify larger goals for our future. We may wish to return to school, change careers or save toward financial goals. Identifying other goals for our lives and developing a plan to achieve these goals can play an important role in helping us develop and maintain a drug-free lifestyle.

GAINING SPIRITUALITY

Spirituality, as it relates to recovery, means gaining values in your life and having altruistic goals; reaching beyond yourself to find fulfillment and happiness. Spirituality is one of the most, if not the most important factors in any successful recovery program. It involves connecting to a power that extends beyond the concerns of daily living. Gaining spirituality in one's life may involve participating in activities that are "greater than yourself" such as doing service work for your support group, becoming more involved in your religious organization, doing community service or volunteering for charity work.
