A "pearly baker" is a colloquial term for a person who has experienced a relapse in substance use, particularly in relation to addiction recovery. The term often refers to someone who has gone through a period of sobriety but has returned to using drugs or alcohol, likening their situation to the way pearls are formed in oysters but can be disrupted. It highlights the challenges of maintaining long-term recovery and the cyclical nature of addiction.
