How to Bring Your Support System Home for the Holidays
The holiday season is one of love, celebration, and family. However, it can also be a challenging time in terms of staying sober. At Banyan Detox Boca Raton, we help people find their sobriety with comprehensive detox and rehab services. After completing Boca drug treatment, many patients have a tough time navigating their first sober holiday season. While you’ve been surrounded with sobriety support at our drug, alcohol, and mental health programs in Boca, it can feel jarring to be in a different setting when you’re home for the holidays. But you can find a holiday sober support system. Here are tips on how to bring your support system wherever you go, like going home for the holidays.
Support is a Big Component of Your Holiday Sobriety Plan
Holiday sober support plays a big role in long-term sobriety. When you’re building your holiday sobriety plan, you should consider crucial support for your recovery. You can take your current sobriety support system and bring many of the same components of care to your home. You can do this by:
- Joining an alumni network
- Communicating with your sponsor by text or phone call
- Participating in group meetings wherever you may be
- Practicing gratitude daily
- Being honest with family and friends
When you are honest with your family and friends about your addiction, they are able to become part of your supportive team in sobriety. Family, friends, and loved ones can become part of your support system, helping you stay sober over the holidays.
With dedication and honesty, you can take your sobriety support system anywhere in the world. Contact us at 888-280-4763 to learn more.
