Best Sober living in NYC
Best Sober living in NYC - People often ask us at
City Recovery what the best sober living option
in New York City looks like. To find the best
sober living requires looking at many factors.
Diagnosis, Aftercare Plans, Level of Support and
Family Dynamics are just a few. DIAGNOSIS Most
people struggling with an addiction issue also
have a co-occuring disorder or dual diagnosis.
That means there is an underlying mental health
diagnosis that is a key factor in driving their
addiction behaviors.
2
Things like Trauma, PTSD, Schizoaffective
disorders, Bi-polar 1 and 2 are all contributing
factors if you are working on making the changes
necessary to lead a healthy, happy life. Working
with a Sober Living and AfterCare provider that
also understands these issues is key. You may
have a complicated list of medications or need
someone helping you navigate new coping
mechanisms and having a staff trained to manage
these issues and experience working with mental
health diagnosis is key.
AFTER CARE PLANS Are you going back to school or
getting a new job or just attending IOP and
focusing on your recovery? Whatever your plans
are post-inpatient rehab youll need a staff that
has the bandwidth to help you on all fronts. The
first year of recovery is the most daunting and
the most important year-youre changing
everything.
3
Make sure your Sober Living and Aftercare team
have at least 5 years of sobriety, and have
examples of clients theyve helped in the past
either get job placements or return to school or
any of the important milestones youre looking to
hit while youre in the safety of a Sober
living. LEVEL OF SUPPORT Some people have the
ability to change their life with a minimum stay
of 28 days while some people need longer to
address difficult addiction behaviors. If you
feel shaky and doubt whether you can sustain
sobriety, make sure your Sober Living has the
staff to support you with everything from
one-on-one coaching care to full-time companion
services. Having a trained staff member handling
medications and certified counseling staff are
always a plus.
4
Many staff at sober livings have their hearts in
the right place but may not have the years of
training or any level of continuing formal
education to truly help with those that need
more. Make sure you choose a place that has had 5
years or more of working in the industry and be
sure to ask how they deal with relapses. All of
this can affect your progress and your focus
while youre working on your sobriety. AFMILY
DYNAMICS Dealing with family members is always
difficult and can be a major contributing factor
to your mental well-being and sobriety. Different
after care providers offer different levels of
service in dealing with family members. Some
clients have wives, husbands, children they are
away from and others have an actively using or
alcoholic parent at home that can be difficult to
navigate.
5
Having a Family Support Specialist that works
directly with family members and gives you the
ability to detach from family issues while you
focus yourself is key. Someone with experience in
their own lives and in their own family with a
nighter level of education or certification is
something to look for if you have a difficult
time with your family. Let your aftercare
provider help you in as many ways as possible
focus on yourself and your recovery.
