Struggles with Sobriety and Social Acceptance

Experiencing sobriety can lead to profound internal conflict, especially when one feels disconnected from social norms. The difficulty of accepting a life without alcohol can be overwhelming, particularly when there is a perception of not being a 'true' alcoholic. This struggle is amplified when social settings, like those involving partners who engage in alcohol-centered activities, create pressure to conform.
