Maintaining a healthy balance between work and life ensures you have time to nurture your relationships.
- Schedule social time. Whether it’s a short coffee date, a study session, or even just a chat on the phone, regularly reaching out to the people in your sober network helps ward off feelings of isolation and loneliness, which are detrimental to recovery.
- Join a club. Joining an academic, athletic, or social club can expand your social network and provide enjoyment in a structured environment on a regular basis.
- Attend meetings. If nothing else, attend your support group meeting every day for healthy social interaction and peer support.
