Sober Helpline

Sober Helpline is for the family on the other side of addiction. When someone you love is struggling with alcohol or drugs, everyone tells you to "say something." Nobody teaches you how. Sober Helpline is the app for the moment before the conversation — the words, the practice, and the steadiness you need to reach someone who isn't ready to be reached. WHAT TO SAY 34 real-life scripts written from 20+ years of professional intervention practice: the money ask, the 2 AM phone call, the relapse you suspect, the morning after an overdose scare, the day after they said no. Each script gives you words to try, words to avoid, why they work — and the pushback you'll probably hear, with a reply that holds. Three fresh scripts surface every day, and the full library is organized by situation. PRACTICE OUT LOUD Reading a script is one thing. Saying it to a voice that argues back is another. The AI Practice Partner plays your loved one — with a realistic voice, in the mood you choose: Guarded, Defensive, Heated, or Guilt-ridden. It deflects, bargains, and pushes back the way real people do, so the hard sentences aren't new on the day that matters. This isn't a game you win — it's a rehearsal room. What changes with every rep is you. COACHING AFTER EVERY REP End a practice session and a coach's debrief reviews your own words: did you lead with love? Hold your ask when they changed the subject? Keep your boundaries under pressure? Stay calm under bait? You get specific feedback with your own lines quoted back, one drill for your next rep, and a private session history that shows you getting steadier over time. STEADINESS EVERY DAY A one-minute daily check-in tracks your own footing — because you can't hold a boundary you don't have. Build a streak, watch your mood over time, and get a fresh script daily, even on the free plan. REAL HUMANS, TOO Join the free weekly family call, connect with support groups, or book time with a coach when you want a professional in your corner. WHEN IT'S URGENT Crisis resources are one tap away — and the app knows the difference between practice and a real emergency. If a rehearsal touches something real, it stops and points you to actual support. EN ESPAÑOL The full scripts library and practice experience are available in Spanish. You didn't cause this, you can't control it, and you can't cure it — but you can get better at the conversations that open the door. Sober Helpline helps you practice until steady. Sober Helpline supports family communication and wellbeing. It is not therapy or medical care and is not a substitute for professional treatment. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911.
