What’s the difference between Alcoholics and Alcoholism – In a word “Recovery”  

Recovery is not just about getting sober—it’s about building a life worth celebrating. One of the most common things I hear from men in sobriety is, “I haven’t done enough to celebrate”, or “ I only have one month sober”. But here’s the truth: if you’re showing up, if you’re trying, if you’re taking even one step toward a better life—you’re already doing more than enough. 

We’re so proud and excited to announce that Starting August 4, 2025, Soberman’s Estate began offering something we’ve wanted for a long time—24/7 Registered Nursing Coverage. This commitment ensures that medical support is always available—day or night—providing immediate attention, peace of mind, and an added layer of safety throughout every stage of the recovery journey.

“I don’t know who I am anymore.”
It’s easy to think of grief only in terms of losing someone else. But what happens when the loss is... you?

Let’s be honest. 
When you hear the word wellness, what comes to mind? 

How to Deal with the Fear of Judgment: Normalizing the Fear of What Others Think

We often think that transformation in sobriety requires major breakthroughs or life-altering events. 

Alcohol withdrawal occurs when someone who has been drinking heavily for a long time suddenly stops or reduces their alcohol intake. For those with alcohol use disorder or alcohol dependence, the body becomes reliant on alcohol, and withdrawal symptoms can follow when drinking stops. 

For anyone struggling with alcohol use, the decision to stop drinking is a courageous and essential first step. But the method of quitting can significantly impact safety and success. Many people consider quitting alcohol cold turkey, hoping for a fast recovery. However, this approach carries serious health risks, especially for a heavy drinker.

At Soberman’s Estate, recovery doesn’t end when residential treatment does. It evolves. It deepens. And sometimes, it brings men back to the very place where their healing began.
