Emotional Sobriety
Finding Balance Beyond Abstinence
How It Affects Mental Health
Emotional sobriety is the deeper work of recovery — developing the ability to feel your feelings without being overwhelmed, reactive, or emotionally dependent on others. It's not just about abstaining from a substance or behavior, but about restoring your emotional resilience and self-trust.
