My rock bottom pretty much coincided with my son being born.
Ever felt like you're juggling too many balls, and one wrong move could make them all come crashing down? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle takes listeners through his rollercoaster journey of giving up alcohol. Boyle's tale is not just about quitting booze; it's about the messy, raw process of hitting rock bottom and finding a way back up.
He opens up about his failed attempts at moderation and how he tried to distract himself with a job as a waiter in a Sri Lankan restaurant. But life had other plans. The looming pressure of starting a family and his floundering comedy career pushed him to the edge. When his wife got pregnant, Boyle knew he had to change. The birth of his son became the catalyst for his sobriety and a new focus on putting his family first.
With humor and honesty, Boyle shares the ups and downs of this transformative period, offering listeners a candid look at the struggles and triumphs of quitting alcohol. Whether you're on your own sobriety journey or just need a dose of real-life inspiration, this episode is a must-listen.
