I spend a lot of my time, I found there's two things a person can do: they can worry about themselves or they can worry about others. And the people I find that worry about themselves are the most unhappy people I know.
Imagine facing the challenges of sobriety while battling a debilitating disease. That's exactly what Alex L. did. Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) during his sixth year of sobriety, Alex faced a future filled with pain and struggle. But he chose to stay sober. Now, 35 years later, Alex shares his journey on 'AA Recovery Interviews' with host Howard L.
This episode dives into Alex's life, exploring how he relied on the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous to navigate the daily hurdles of MS and remain a pillar of support for others in recovery. From the early days of his diagnosis to his current role as a mentor, Alex's story is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of community.
He opens up about the fears he faced, his initial resistance to the concept of a higher power, and how he eventually found peace and strength in the AA program. Whether you're seeking inspiration for your own journey or looking to support a loved one, Alex's story offers invaluable insights and a powerful reminder that sobriety is possible, even in the face of life's toughest challenges.
