The Power of Community in Overcoming Addiction: Real Stories from 'This Is Not A Meeting'

There's nothing that truly Trumps what can happen when you're just physically present. It's just like the realness of all that and it's just like you just can't even comprehend that another human being such as yourself, somebody that you bsed and played games with and boarded all those things- is going through something that magnitude I couldn't imagine.
What role does community play in addiction recovery? In this thought-provoking episode of 'This Is Not A Meeting', hosts Scottage, Jimbo, and Big Joe dive deep into how crucial community support is for those battling addiction. Drawing from their personal journeys, they discuss how a sense of belonging and physical presence can make a world of difference in staying sober.
The trio tackles the often-overlooked challenges of reconnecting with loved ones after addiction, emphasizing that being emotionally present is just as important as physical presence. They candidly share their experiences, highlighting the irreplaceable value of having a support system outside formal meetings. One memorable quote from the episode captures this sentiment perfectly: 'There's nothing that truly trumps what can happen when you're just physically present'.
Whether you're on your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, this episode offers heartfelt insights and practical advice on building a strong community around you.
