Five Years Sober: A Journey with Five Friends and Five Words

That by myself I would continue to drink that. It is only with the other alcoholics in the room that I can accomplish and become sober, contented, happy, and free.
Imagine celebrating five years of sobriety with a powerful message engraved on a medallion. In this episode of the Sober Moments Podcast, Karen shares the story of her fourth friend, who marked her five-year milestone with the words 'of myself, I am nothing'. This isn't about feeling alone; it's a profound lesson in the dangers of self-will and self-importance. Karen explains how her friend initially struggled with isolation due to her self-reliance, leading to a relapse.
It was only upon returning to AA that she realized the vital role of community support in recovery. Through her friend's journey, Karen emphasizes the importance of acknowledging one's limitations and the strength found in unity. This episode is filled with hope and encouragement, reminding listeners that they are not alone on their path to sobriety. Karen's heartfelt reflections offer valuable insights for anyone navigating their own recovery journey.
