First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 70 Romanian adults with alcohol use disorder who have been sober for at least a year. Researchers use personality tests and spiritual well-being surveys to see what predicts a calm, fulfilling sobriety versus a difficult one. The goal is to better understand recovery, not to test a new drug or therapy.
