Sober Christmas Tips

Christmas is upon us and whether you’re newly sober or a sober veteran this time of year can always be a little tricky. Here are some tips to help you get through...

  • You don’t need alcohol to celebrate. Always try to remember this when someone puts pressure on you to have ‘just one’ or you’re feeling tempted.
  • Stock up on alcohol-free alternatives if that’s your bag. The options are endless these days.
  • Use your support networks. Sober Instagram, the Bee Sober gang and anyone else who gets it. If in doubt just reach out.
  • Buddy up - agree to be sober buddies with someone where you agree to stay in contact on any days you might find difficult so you can help each other get through.
  • Enjoy ALL THE FOOD! How much festive food have you wasted in the past or not appreciated because you were sloshed by midday? Not this year!!
  • Remember how frickin incredible you are without the need for booze.

And finally....it’s been a shit year but it doesn’t have to be a shitty pissed or hungover Christmas.

Merry Christmas everyone - you are all legends
