Objective: to characterize the social representations of abstaining alcoholics about alcoholic beverages and their implications for the acquisition of alcoholism. Method: descriptive exploratory study with a qualitative approach, focused on the procedural aspects of the Theory of Social Representations. The interviewees were 30 members of the Psychosocial Care Center. The ATLAS.ti version 24 program was used, and thematic analysis was performed. Results: the process of sobriety and overcoming the problematic consumption of alcohol and other drugs is significantly influenced by social and environmental life. Problematic alcohol use directly interferes with mental health, affecting the ability to interact and maintain healthy relationships. Relationships with family and friends play a key role in recovery. Final Considerations: Strategies for the prevention and treatment of alcoholism should consider the social representations of the affected individuals and understanding of the factors that influence the attainment of alcohol use, as well as the importance of family and social support.
