I was lost. I was done my second fucking shot at quitting drinking. It was all fucking over the shop, but Next Week we'll be learning to be sober.
Imagine hitting rock bottom, only to find the strength to rise again. In this gripping episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle takes you through his tumultuous journey from being an 'alcoholic maniac' to a 'sober lunatic'. With his trademark wit and raw honesty, Boyle recounts his second attempt at quitting alcohol, a journey filled with setbacks, confusion, and unexpected twists. Feeling lost and suffocated, he decided to escape to the US, hoping to find answers.
Instead, he found himself in a hostel, drinking for a week straight without speaking to anyone. But the story takes a turn when an Australian guy invites him to a comedy gig in LA, setting off a chain of events that would lead Boyle to a pivotal moment in San Francisco. After consuming two weed cookies and losing his mind, Boyle made a life-changing decision: to quit drinking for a year.
Back in Australia, he gave himself two weeks to say goodbye to alcohol before quitting on his Nana's birthday. This episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, filled with humor and profound insights into the struggle of addiction and the journey to sobriety. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Boyle's story offers a beacon of hope and a testament to the power of resilience.
