I do believe that there's a difference between problem users and actual addicts, and I think a lot of the times it's because it's a progressive disease.
Ever wondered what it takes to stay sober for eight years? Diana Beals is back with hosts Jason and Alex to share the second part of her inspiring journey. Kicking off with her struggle to accept her powerlessness over addiction, Diana opens up about the hurdles she faced and why sobriety took its time to stick.
Her story is a blend of personal trials and triumphs, shedding light on the difference between problem users and addicts, and how traditions in sobriety played a crucial role in her recovery. One of the most touching moments involves a simple sobriety birthday candle that marked a significant turning point for her. Diana also delves into the impact of negative influences and the difficulty addicts face in distancing themselves from toxic peer groups.
She believes these relationships are hard to sever because they often involve life-and-death situations where those same people are present when death is narrowly avoided. With eight years of sobriety under her belt, Diana credits her success to a mix of meditation and living in a way that makes her proud of herself. This mantra has created a positive snowball effect in her life.
She also talks about how her legal knowledge has been a tool to help others in their recovery journeys. Tune in to 'Let The Journey Begin' and find out how Diana's experiences can offer you a fresh perspective on your own path to sobriety.
