Tips for Sober Travel

March 26, 2015 By SoberJulie 5 Comments

In the past when my husband and I were looking around at travel locations and resorts, one factor which weighed heavily on our decision was the alcohol. We'd investigate the bars, what brands of alcohol they offered and the general vibe of the place because we were looking for a lively, upbeat place where we could enjoy our drinks of choice. These days as a sober traveller, I still investigate this but for the opposite reason. The last think I want is to end up at a resort jammed with partiers ...

Symptoms of a High Functioning Alcoholic

January 13, 2015 By SoberJulie 13 Comments

Before I became sober, I knew I had a problem but did my best to avoid confronting it. I knew my entire world would change and for years the thought of the upheaval was more frightening than the unhealthy behaviours I had. These days as I walk the streets I know that high functioning alcoholics are all around me; they're walking past me on the sidewalk, working at their jobs, taking their kids to school and doing their best to hide the signs of their alcoholism from others and themselves.

Sober Sex? Dear God Help Me I’m Talking About It

September 30, 2014 By SoberJulie 20 Comments

At the age of 16 I was truly kissed for the very first time, sure I'd had the fumbling kisses of younger years but this one made my toes curl. I stood leaning against my Father's car in the driveway of the first "real" love of my life, he leaned in and as our lips met my world changed. In that nanosecond the world stopped and I can remember everything. The way the breeze came off the fields, how he smelled and how his lips were a bit dry and chapped against mine. My 16 year old self revelled in ...
