Sober Fausto: Overcoming Trauma and Finding a New Life

It was just a bunch of suppression of, you know, drinking, using dating, money, sex, partying, all these things, just to avoid that all that stuff really happened.
Imagine facing the darkest moments of your life and finding the strength to choose a different path. That's exactly what Sober Fausto did, and his story is nothing short of remarkable. In this episode of 'The Addictive Pod', Fausto opens up about his harrowing experiences with sexual abuse, drug and alcohol addiction, and the brink of suicide. His raw honesty offers a rare glimpse into the struggles many face but seldom discuss.
But Fausto's journey doesn't end in despair; it takes a powerful turn towards recovery and self-discovery. He dives into the often overlooked topic of sex life in sobriety. How do you navigate dating when past trauma and addictive behaviors loom large? How do you rebuild trust after betrayal? Fausto shares his insights on these intimate aspects of recovery, emphasizing the importance of finding a partner who understands the language of sobriety.
He also touches on the role of service and belief in a higher power in his recovery process. Fausto's story is a beacon of hope, reminding us that no matter how dark things get, there's always a way to find light. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable perspectives and a message of resilience.
