Is it safe to stop drinking without medical help?

Not always. Stopping suddenly after heavy daily drinking can cause withdrawal that is genuinely dangerous, which is why supervised withdrawal exists as its own service. If you drink heavily every day, speak to a doctor or a withdrawal service first. This is the published position of the Alcohol and Drug Foundation, not advice from this directory.

What is sober living housing and who is it for?

Sober living and transitional housing are shared homes where everyone is staying sober, usually with house rules and required meeting attendance. It is housing, not treatment. Residents commonly move in after residential treatment and attend local AA meetings as part of the house agreement.
