AA member Brian N from Belfast sharing at The Morning After Group - Alcoholics Anonymous

In this heartfelt episode of Alcoholics Anonymous, Brian N from Belfast shares his journey with the Morning After Group in New Jersey. Brian's story is a candid and inspiring look at his path to sobriety, touching on his initial scepticism about long-term sobriety and the surprising connections he found within the AA community.

He recounts his early days in AA, thinking that those with decades of sobriety had nothing in common with him, only to realise that true alcoholics share a common bond, regardless of how long they've been sober. Brian dives into the emotional and physical challenges of overcoming alcohol addiction, emphasising the importance of connecting with others and the transformative power of the 12 steps.

He highlights the concept of a 'perception of separation' from others and a higher power, and how addressing this has been crucial in his recovery. Brian also shares practical advice for newcomers, encouraging them to reach out, get a sponsor, and work through the AA program with commitment. His message is one of hope and solidarity, reminding everyone that recovery is possible and that a life beyond their wildest dreams is achievable.

Whether you're new to AA or have been on the journey for years, Brian's story offers valuable insights and encouragement. So, sit back, relax, and let Brian's experience inspire you to take the next step in your own recovery journey.
