The Sober Christmas Survival Guide by Ben T. gives readers in recovery real strategies for navigating holiday triggers, family gatherings, and the pressure to drink
CLEVELAND—Oct. 1, 2026—Author Ben T. has released The Sober Christmas Survival Guide: Staying Sober During the Holidays and Committed to Recovery Through Holiday Gatherings and Family Events. This practical guidebook is written for anyone who wants to protect their sobriety through the most challenging season of the year.
The holidays are often framed as a time of joy and connection, but for people in addiction recovery, they can also bring pressure, temptation, loneliness, stress, and difficult memories. Alcohol-filled parties, uncomfortable family gatherings, friends pushing "just one drink," and the disruption of routines that normally keep someone grounded can all put sobriety at risk. The Sober Christmas Survival Guide helps readers face the season with a plan instead of white-knuckling their way through it.
The book walks readers through strategies for recognizing and managing holiday triggers, saying no without guilt or lengthy explanations, and building an exit plan for difficult situations. It also offers ideas for replacing old drinking traditions with healthier, more meaningful alternatives, along with relapse prevention strategies specific to the holiday season. Additional chapters address strengthening a support system before, during, and after holiday events, and coping with stress, loneliness, family conflict, and the fear of missing out.
"You don't have to white-knuckle your way through Christmas," said Ben T, a 61-year-old man who has been sober through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) for over 25 years. "With the right plan and this holiday sobriety guide, you can enjoy the holidays, protect your recovery, and enter the new year proud of the promises you kept to yourself."
The Sober Christmas Survival Guide is available now in paperback, audiobook, and ebook formats. It has earned a 4.7 out of 5-star rating from early readers.
