#MythBusterMonday - "Drinking more water can help you sober up" Water helps with hydration and may help combat some hangover symptoms, but it doesn't sober you up.

Sometimes the most important thing is simply showing up. To everyone who is walking alongside someone in recovery - your support matters more than you know. orlo.uk/uZlcK
