Hi. Thought it might be helpful to start a thread on what some people have found as an alternative high/escape/addiction in their sobriety that is positive. 😊

I returned to my first best friend and escape - books. I have read a ton of memoirs by authors who are recovering alcoholics or addicts. I'm not in 12 step now but the AA book Living Sober was great for early sobriety. I get newsletters from Lifering.org and a great online paper called The Fix. There is also a forum strictly for addiction called Sober Recovery.
