You might transition to a sober living house when you leave rehab. While it’s not your home, it’s a step closer to your real life environment. While there, you may have to undergo regular testing to make sure you’re staying sober. All of this is to help your continuing recovery.

Characteristics of the Best Sober Living Environments

Whether it’s a transitional setting or your own home, you should look for certain traits in your sober living environments. This way, you’ll have the best chance of maintaining your sobriety in the long term.

Your environment should have the following characteristics:

  • Supportive people: From counselors to family members and other people going through recovery, you need a strong support system full of people who want to see you get well.
  • 100% drug and alcohol-free: There’s no room for any addictive substances in your sober life.
  • Non-judgmental atmosphere: The people around you should be compassionate and not judge you based on your dependency.
  • Peaceful environment: The more peaceful and calm your environment, the less likely you are to escape via drugs or alcohol.
  • Encouraging: Having encouragement from others can make you feel valued and loved, which goes a long way toward lasting sobriety.

Some people won’t have this support and encouragement in their home life. They may have to leave behind toxic friends and even family members. This can be incredibly difficult, but it’s an important step to take for that person’s health and healing.
