Question 3

Is 10 months sober a big milestone?

Accepted Answer

10 months of sobriety represents sustained, committed recovery. Every month matters. Be proud of where you are.

Can I use the sobriety calculator to find my exact count?

Accepted Answer

Question 5

What support is available to help me stay sober?

Accepted Answer

Free support: AA meetings (aa.org.uk or call 0800 9177 650), Frank helpline (0300 123 6600, 24/7), NHS drug and alcohol services (self-referral via Frank or GP), SMART Recovery meetings, and online recovery communities. Private counselling and rehab are also available.

Question 6

Should I still be going to AA meetings at 10 months sober?

Accepted Answer

Many people continue attending AA long after the acute recovery period — it provides community, accountability, and a framework for sustained sobriety. There is no required timeline. Some people attend for life; others reduce meetings as their recovery solidifies. The key is to maintain your support network.
