Yes, you deserve to be taken care of. You deserve freedom from alcohol.
What is your reason for getting sober, LG?
My meta-reason is that I am living a life of quiet desperation, and I don't want to die with my song inside me (to mangle quoting Thoreau).
On a simpler level, I have work to do and relationships to fix and people to take care of. Including myself.
How are you today Mizz?
