Being sober isn't a name in a game, it's a requirement, but it's not the name of the game and I don't know that.
Ever wondered how the mind plays tricks on those battling alcoholism? Bob A, a founding member of the Prime Time groups in Los Angeles, dives into this complex topic in the first part of his seven-part series. Recorded at a retreat in Auburn, California, back in August 1994, Bob shares his 43 years of sobriety wisdom with raw honesty and practical insights.
He speaks about the mental gymnastics that come with alcoholism, emphasizing the need for self-honesty and living in the moment. Bob also explores the crucial role of the 12 steps in recovery and the daily effort required to stay sober. He doesn't shy away from discussing the ego's influence and the value system that can lead people astray. This episode is packed with valuable lessons for anyone dealing with alcoholism or supporting someone who is.
Bob's candid approach and deep understanding make this a must-listen for those seeking a better grasp of the mental aspects of addiction.
