No one warns you about THIS in sobriety...

from The Sober Scoop · host India Gants

One of the things I struggled with in the beginning of sobriety was the abundance of time. My days basically doubled when I quit drinking, and it was really hard to fill my time when I was SO bored, yet also hyper and restless.What was once a burden on my life is now my favorite part about life!! Having the entire day to be productive and enjoy life has truly been a blessing. I went from "when is this day going to end?" to "I've done so much with my day."In this episode, I'll give you some advice for those tough early days and share how I transitioned from hating the extra time to absolutely loving it :)More resources: TheSoberScoop.comFB support group: @The Scoop TroopIG: @thesoberscoopPersonal IG: @indiagantsTikTok: @thesoberscoopYouTube: @thesoberscoopEmail: [email protected]
