Alumni Update: I am Sober and Still Recovering

I left The Cabin about 4 months ago, and I’m happy to be sober, but always in the “recovery process”. The challenges I face are dealing with recovery in an isolated location and situation, and of course, just recovery in general.

My husband has stopped drinking to support me, and the local AA chapter is helping to organize a “lone” phone meeting. I have a great sponsor who I have never met but talk on the phone with weekly. I attend The Cabin weekly online meetings, and my Sodastream carbonated water maker makes each day easier.

I don’t notice any specific triggers, although various things on movies, books and magazines, and on planes can sometimes cause a reaction.
