Changing your life with the decision to get sober can be challenging.

Old friendships or relationships could prove to be challenging to the maintenance of your recovery.

If your old friends are still using, it can end up being a trigger for you, possibly leading to a relapse.

Your old friends may feel threatened by your new found sobriety, and may try to convince you to drink or to use “just one more time.”

Or they may be so consumed by their own addiction that they cannot yet see how it is possible to live life happy and sober.

In time, over the course of your sobriety you will come recognize your true friends versus using or drinking buddies.

Once you are serious about your recovery you might begin to drift away from your friends that are still using and abusing alcohol and drugs.

You will begin to form a network full of new friends who can better identify with you and your recovery lifestyle.
