Hello All! Welcome to the Cali-Sober Community Page!
If you're wondering what Cali-Sober means, or you think you know what Cali-Sober means, then read on and you'll find out...
Cali-Sober is a relatively new form of recovery from drugs and alcohol that utilizes cannabis in conjunction with healthy lifestyle changes, honesty, accountability, and support to live a new life free from the uses of dangerous drugs and alcohol.
Cali-Sober is not an excuse to smoke w**d instead of working on yourself and actually working through the problems that are causing problems like addiction. Cali-Sober uses Cannabis as one of many tools in recovery, it's not a cure all. A program with structure and several lifestyle changes are usually what it takes to start to turn someone's life around.
People use cannabis in recovery for a variety of reasons. There are literally as many legitimate reasons for people to be able to use cannabis in recovery as there are legitimate reasons for them to use it along with their other treatment for any other disease. For me, it's depression, anxiety, and ADHD with which it helps. My ability to participate in programs or even life in general (truly) was greatly hindered by my depression. Pharmaceuticals alone didn't help, either. And attempting to participate in other programs while continuing to consume cannabis behind everyone's back was disastrous and would just lead to relapse.
It wasn't until I found an actual community of like-minded individuals who were living life this way that I was able to succeed in it.
A support system is crucial. You could have the best idea in the world but if there's no one to help support your new idea then it will be hard, especially when it comes to a new form of recovery like this. Here in L.A. we have Cali-Clean meetings every week, but for most of the United States there are no such meetings.
That's why I decided to create the Cali-Sober Community page. I hope that this new resource will help you in finding a new life, free from drugs and alcohol, a life of which you can be proud.
