I'm a free man Today and I can do whatever I want, and I mean that quite literally being a free man, because alcohol kept me in prison for many, many years, and the fellowship of alcoholics anonymous opened up that door for my freedom.
Imagine setting your own house on fire due to drinking. That's just one chapter in John's intense journey through alcoholism. In this episode of 'Echoes of Recovery: Voices from Alcoholics Anonymous', John opens up about his chaotic life in the Royal Navy, the family turmoil caused by his addiction, and the battles he fought to achieve over 15 years of sobriety.

From his initial resistance to seeking help to becoming a beacon of hope for others, John's story is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. Whether you're grappling with alcohol yourself or supporting someone who is, John's experience offers a powerful reminder that recovery is within reach. Tune in for a candid conversation that underscores the importance of community and the possibility of a life free from alcohol's grip.
