Because if you're addicted to something positive and it's creating a positive outcome in your life and there are no negatives, then you're not probably addicted to it.
What does it mean to be 'addicted to sobriety'? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Sober Militia', J.W. Collier takes a critical look at this popular phrase and questions its true value. He starts by breaking down the definition of addiction, pointing out its inherently negative connotations. Collier argues that while sobriety is crucial for a fulfilling life, labeling it as an addiction might not be as beneficial as it sounds.
He dives into the difference between positive and negative addictions, making a case that if something genuinely improves our lives, it shouldn't be termed an addiction. Throughout the episode, Collier emphasizes the importance of finding joy and satisfaction in a sober life. He encourages listeners to reflect on their own journeys and strive for a relationship with sobriety that brings genuine happiness and fulfillment.
This episode isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about redefining what it means to live a positive, alcohol-free life. Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for a while, Collier's insights will challenge you to think differently and aim for a more fulfilling existence.
