Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your journey with us, Rosie. Community has been one of the most beautiful parts of sobriety for me, too. There’s so much clarity, honesty, courage, self-accountability, acceptance, and generosity in sober circles.

Community was a key component of my recovery 53 months ago. I flitted around until I found the right one. I opted for Bee Sober because it was a non profit CIC, and there were options for IRL meetings. I have done many voluntary sessions for the community (organised meetings, mountain walks, beach walks, hosted zooms, led circles, taught yoga). However, the further into my recovery that I am, the less I have found the need to engage. This is either a stage I'm at, or it's a gradual stepping into the person I always should have become before I developed a toxic response to grief, loneliness, dissatisfaction with life. Sobriety opens doors to perception and I'm enjoying stepping through them all 😆 🙏
