Los Angeles Sober Living

Los Angeles is an excellent location to get sober, as it has an excessive amount of support systems in place for individuals in recovery.

Sober living facilities in LA are widespread and vary in specialties. Sober living facilities are residencies for individuals to use as transitional living as they are learning to reintegrate into society, post rehab. Residing in a sober living facility allows a safe, sober environment for people to continue with their recovery process at their own pace. The supportive network that is made up of the vast sober community in Los Angeles has been deeply woven into the culture that makes up the city.

Healthy Living

One of the most important aspects of maintaining sobriety is leading a healthy life.

Los Angeles is notorious for its beautiful weather, vast beaches, and palm trees. There are phenomenal hiking trails, pools everywhere and a plethora of new and old exercise classes to try out. There are health-conscious restaurants, and healthy food options everywhere—so no need to pack on the pounds! It is essential to learn to fill up one’s time that was previously occupied by one’s substance and/ or alcohol abuse, with healthy and productive pastimes. Los Angeles is rich in culture and the bustling city does not lack for safe, sober activities.

Support

There are countless sober living facilities for individuals in need in LA. Finding the correct sober living facility that directly caters to one’s specific needs is not unrealistic in LA.

The specific support a person requires to continue on their path of recovery should be of utmost importance, and LA has an enormous support network in place to assist with this. Different stages of recovery may be more challenging than others, and people may find certain steps more difficult to take than others. LA is a densely populated city with huge professional opportunity. Regardless of the industry, Los Angeles has endless job and career opportunities.

Additionally, there are uncountable substance abuse and/ or addiction support group meetings held on a daily basis in Los Angeles. There are twelve step meetings in addition to other types of addiction support group meetings. Having consistent access to support group meetings can help an individual maintain his or her sobriety long term.

Options

Los Angeles is a densely populated city with an abundance of sober living facilities available.

It is not uncommon that a person transplants him or herself to LA to attend a substance abuse and/ or addiction treatment program. Attending and completing a rehab program may be overwhelming at times, as well as comforting. Regardless of where an individual was before he or she attended a substance abuse or addiction treatment program, upon its completion, in most cases he or she must carry on. That may mean that the person must begin to pick up the pieces of his or her life, beginning with a place to move to after the completion of the rehab program. Directly returning home may not be the best option. Everything takes time, and in most cases, the time an individual abused drugs or alcohol far exceeds the duration of one’s substance abuse and addiction treatment program. Transitioning to a sober living facility, post rehab, can behoove a person in continuing to learn how to soberly navigate their day-to-day life. Getting sober takes a strong commitment, as a person must endure a lot to achieve sobriety. Giving oneself a little extra structure and support when it comes to maintaining sobriety would hardly be harmful.
