My Sobriety Journey: Week 2-8

Weeks 2–6

In-Patient Rehab (28 days) [Steps 1 & 2]

Residential treatment program — structured environment, group therapy, and continued introduction to the 12-step program.

I continued the Upon Awakening process with phone calls, meditations, and reading pages 87–88.

Weeks 7-8

Out-Patient Rehab (14 days) [Step 3]

Stepped down from full-time live-in facility to 3 days a week, afternoons only, while beginning the transition back to daily life.

Read the Big Book from the opening page through page 57 with my sponsor, including writing notes, underlining, and highlighting.

I continued the Upon Awakening process with phone calls and meditations, but now used the Third Step Prayer instead of pages 87–88.
