SOBER CURIOUS GROUP SUPPORT
Facilitated by Joy Dorsey
MAY 4-JUNE 15 (6-WEEKS) (no session on May 18)
WEDNESDAYS 6:00 PM- 7:00 PM
ONLINE WITH ZOOM
The Sober Curious online group is an opportunity for you to join with other individuals to talk about your challenges with substances and the relationship this has with your eating disorder. ABSTINENCE IS NOT REQUIRED. In this group you have the opportunity to be in a community of like-minded individuals to share about how using or not using is impacting your eating disorder recovery and your relationships, career, self-esteem, and your ability to handle the challenges and celebrations of life. This workshop would be suitable for you if you answer YES to any of the following questions:
​
-
Do you use substances even when you’ve told yourself you won’t?
-
Have you ever considered giving up drinking and/or using drugs? Even just for a short period of time, and yet struggle to follow through?
-
Have you ever given up substances for a period of time, hoping it would shift your relationship with it, but then find yourself right back in the same spot?
-
Have you used substances as a way to manage your food intake?
-
Do you notice that your use of substances increases/substantially shifts the more your ED recovery improves?
-
Do you have some health (mental, physical, emotional) concerns that you know would improve if you were sober?
-
Do you wonder what your social life would be like if you didn’t use substances?
-
Are you considering sobriety but not ready to give up drinking/drugs in their entirety?
-
Do you know you have a problem with alcohol and/drugs but don’t want to identify as an alcoholic or an addict?
-
