Continued support: Even after you leave rehab, it’s important to continue seeking support from friends, family, and support groups like AA. Many rehab facilities offer aftercare programs to help you stay on track and maintain your sobriety.
Emotional ups and downs: Recovery is a journey, and it’s normal to experience a range of emotions as you adjust to life after rehab. You may feel elated and proud of your progress one day, and then anxious or overwhelmed the next.
Lifestyle changes: You may need to make changes to your daily routine to support your recovery, such as avoiding certain triggers or finding new hobbies and activities to replace drinking.
Continued therapy: Many people find that ongoing therapy and counseling can be helpful in maintaining their sobriety and addressing underlying emotional issues that may have contributed to their addiction.
Focus on self-care: It’s important to prioritize self-care and focus on healthy habits like regular exercise, healthy eating, and getting enough sleep to support your overall well-being.
Remember that recovery is a journey, and there may be ups and downs along the way. It’s important to stay focused on your goals and seek support when you need it.
