Rock bottoms are personal. There's no absolute yardstick to say you must have done x before you get to y.
Ever wondered what 'rock bottom' really means when it comes to addiction? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Next Time I'll Try Knitting', host JJ Chance opens up about his own experience with hitting rock bottom and how it propelled him towards recovery. He challenges the stereotypical image of rock bottom, explaining that it's a deeply personal moment that varies for everyone.
For JJ, it was losing something he valued more than his addiction, a wake-up call that led him to seek help and start his journey to sobriety. JJ dives into how addiction often forces individuals to compromise their goals and values, leading to a sense of losing control over their lives. He emphasizes that the key to recovery is taking action rather than getting bogged down by definitions and labels.
His candid reflections serve as a powerful reminder that while the journey to recovery is unique for each person, the decision to take action is universal. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the recovery process, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement. JJ's honest storytelling and practical advice make it clear that while hitting rock bottom can be devastating, it can also be the first step towards a new, healthier life.
