When you learn something new, exactly. Because I know Steve said it was annoying when I'd come back and be like, oh, did you get a sponsor? I think it just helps in general to like the education piece of having a better understanding of what addiction even is and what that looks like, and then just hearing other people's stories to be able to go in that room and be like: okay, I'm not the only one who's been going through hard things.
Ever wondered how addiction can shape relationships? In this episode of the Boy Problems Podcast, the hosts chat with Charlie, who opens up about his personal battle with addiction and the road to recovery.
