I entered my first inpatient rehab facility. Or you know, I had a girlfriend at the time and when we were drinking she would tell me no hard alcohol and try to control that.
What happens when you take on Las Vegas, the city of endless temptations, without a drop of alcohol? In this eye-opening episode of 'Recovery Elevator', host Paul Churchill recounts his three-day sober adventure in Vegas, all while participating in his fantasy football draft. But that's just the beginning. Paul also sits down with Ian, who celebrates 18 months of sobriety, sharing the ups and downs of his journey. The episode takes a heartfelt turn with Diane's story.
Imagine growing up with two alcoholic parents, losing a sibling to alcoholism, and now facing the challenge of parenting a 19-year-old struggling with the same addiction. Diane opens up about her life, shedding light on the ripple effects of alcoholism within a family. They discuss the tough realities of polysubstance abuse, the support found in AA, and the genetic factors that make addiction a family affair.
This episode isn't just about the struggles; it's a testament to resilience and the importance of seeking help and self-care. Whether you're battling addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of community.
