Mastering Negative Emotions: Real Stories from the A2D Podcast

We really should be focused, not on how long we've been clean and sober, but how close are we to the next relapse, and that's why it's so key for me to say that we need to be able to manage our negative emotions before they take us to those places.
Feeling overwhelmed by negative emotions? You're not alone. In this episode of 'A2D - From Addict to Disciple', David Hain brings together a diverse group of individuals from the US, South Africa, and Australia to discuss a challenge many in recovery face: managing negative emotions. This conversation isn't just about identifying these emotions; it's about learning practical ways to handle them without falling back into old habits.
The participants share personal stories, revealing the emotions they struggle with most and the strategies they use to cope. David emphasizes the importance of focusing on preventing relapse rather than just counting the days of sobriety. This episode is a heartfelt exchange of vulnerabilities and triumphs, providing listeners with relatable experiences and actionable advice. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this discussion offers valuable insights into maintaining emotional balance on the path to sobriety.
