What is it that makes us different?

A message from our CEO Mitch Prager:

In the heart of a tranquil desert landscape lies a sanctuary where men gather strength, rediscover their purpose, and embark on a transformative journey towards sobriety. Soberman's Estate is more than a treatment center; it shines a light of hope for individuals seeking to overcome Substance Use Disorder and lead a fulfilling life.

Maybe your husband or loved one is exhibiting questionable behavior related to alcohol, and it doesn't feel right. Know that you are not alone. 12.7% of American adults have an alcohol use disorder, colloquially known as alcoholism. We’re going to talk about signs you’re in a relationship with an addict, as well as strategies to cope and heal. 

October is National Substance Abuse Prevention Month, a time that we need to be raising awareness on the epidemic of substance misuse and addiction. This is creating such a detrimental affect on countless individuals, families, and communities, and in actuality, the world that we are living in today.

Soberman's Estate was founded in honor of two men. The Soberman's Estate Founder's Brother (Jeff Prager) and his Best Friend (Jerry Josen) who committed suicide as a direct result of alcoholism. Jerry's daughter wrote the following paper. 

September is Pain Awareness Month, a time dedicated to increasing understanding and empathy around all kinds of pain, including the emotional and psychological suffering many of us go through. When it comes to emotional pain, guilt and shame often take center stage, becoming overwhelming barriers in the path to recovery.

Labor Day is a time to celebrate the achievements of People in our workforce, and recognize the value of hard work and dedication. However, as we relax on this long weekend, it's also essential to consider the challenges that many workers face, particularly those affected by addiction. Addiction, whether to drugs, alcohol, or other substances, casts a long shadow over the workforce, impacting individuals, their families, and businesses in profound ways.

If you’re one of the millions and millions of people who have to deal with chronic pain on a daily basis—and if that pain makes it difficult or impossible to work or even get through a day without being exhausted, depressed, anxious and irritable – you may be wondering whether there is any point at all to holding onto your sobriety.
