Surfing Sobriety

When urges hit, don't rely on willpower. Have a system.

Surfing Sobriety is a practical recovery app that helps you through the moments that matter most.

Whether you're newly sober, leaving rehab, trying to stop drinking or using, or simply tired of repeating the same patterns, Surfing Sobriety gives you practical tools to help you respond differently when cravings, stress, or difficult emotions show up.

Most people don't plan to relapse.

It happens in ordinary moments—when stress builds, loneliness creeps in, emotions run high, or old habits quietly return.

Surfing Sobriety helps you recognise what's happening, steady yourself, and choose your next step.

Urges come in waves.

They rise.
They peak.
They pass.

Instead of fighting the urge, learn to ride it without letting it take over.

Notice what's happening.
Slow down.
Choose your response.
Get back to your life.

THIS APP MIGHT HELP IF:

• You keep doing something you don't actually want to keep doing.
• You make good plans, then break them later.
• Stress, boredom, loneliness, anger, or exhaustion lead to decisions you regret.
• You feel in control sometimes and completely out of control at others.
• You want practical tools—not more motivation.

You don't have to call yourself anything.

You don't have to have it all figured out.

You just have to know something needs to change.
