If you have just started or are considering recovery, you may be wondering how long it takes to feel better. After all, there would be no point in sobriety if you didn’t feel better. You may start your journey with detox and treatment. Detox can be a bit challenging as toxins leave your body. Treatment will become a little easier, as you start to learn about your past addiction and the potential for a new, wonderful life.

Many people begin to feel mood and physical improvements within a couple weeks of sobriety. You have to understand that recovery does not guarantee that you will never have a bad day. Recovery is about learning to handle tougher moments and stay focused on your sobriety.

Recovery is about learning a new way to handle and cope with life. Recovery is about managing difficult and happy moments in an entirely new way. The thing about recovery is that with time, sobriety becomes second nature. As long as you continue going to meetings, spending time with supportive people, and nurturing you recovery, you will stay sober.

There is not a cookie cutter answer about when you will feel 100% better because each person is unique. Every individual had different patterns of addiction, and each substance works differently in the body. The best way to start feeling better is stop using. Your odds of feeling better begin by detoxing, going to treatment, and doing whatever is necessary to stay sober.

Recovery is a gift. You will be able to accomplish new goals and follow your dreams. You won’t have to worry about waking up sick or needing a substance to feel a false sense of happiness. Recovery allows you to truly, deeply feel like a new person.
