Don’t Call Me Sober, Call Me May: A Rule-Breaker’s Guide to Overcoming Addiction

The truth is that being sober is not an accomplishment. Overcoming your addiction, however, is.

For decades, addiction recovery has followed a single narrative: "You are powerless. Your addiction is a disease. You will fight it for the rest of your life."

But what if that’s not true?

Don’t Call Me Sober, Call Me May isn’t another self-help book preaching the same outdated dogma. It’s a raw wake-up call for those ready to break free from labels and take control of their lives.

True freedom isn’t in counting days or meetings—it’s in doing the hard work to overcome and reclaim yourself. This book dismantles the flawed thinking behind traditional recovery models, offering a mindful, no-BS alternative rooted in personal accountability, self-awareness, and lasting change.

Don’t Call Me Sober, Call Me May argues that addiction is not a lifelong sentence—it’s an experience.

If you’re tired of being told sobriety is the best you can hope for, this book is for you.
