Many Americans look forward to celebrating the Fourth of July with their friends and family. If you are involved in the sober community, you may appreciate the holiday with a different tone. It is one that is deeply associated with the consumption of alcohol, which is something many people in recovery have to grapple with. How do you enjoy yourself while others are doing the same while using the substance that threatened to end your life? People in recovery face this concept daily, and this blog post is a space where we can bring light to that fact and spread empathy for those who struggle with substance misuse. Please take a moment to not only celebrate the independence of our country, but also to educate yourself or connect with someone who struggles with substance misuse!
CTO Wishes You A Happy Independence Day!
