The alcoholic does not realise that they are on a slippery slope for a very long time and assumes their chaotic life is just the way it is.
What happens when you think you’ve got it all—great job, new relationship, fresh start—but everything still feels like it's falling apart? In this episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths', Bruno J. takes us through his personal rollercoaster of addiction and recovery. He paints a vivid picture of how he tried to outrun his problems by changing jobs, moving to new places, and seeking new relationships, only to find that his addiction followed him everywhere.
Bruno's story reveals a common misconception: many alcoholics don't realize they're on a dangerous path until it's almost too late. They often mistake their chaotic lives for normalcy, unaware that their ambitions are being sabotaged by irrational behavior and sick thinking. This episode dives into the paradox of high aspirations clashing with self-destructive actions. Bruno explains how fear and compulsion, rather than values, governed his life during his active addiction.
He emphasizes that running away—whether through new jobs or relationships—doesn't solve the underlying issues. Instead, true recovery begins with a change in mindset and surrendering old habits. Family support and professional help play crucial roles in this journey. Bruno’s candid account serves as a wake-up call about the importance of early intervention and the power of aftercare programs in sustaining long-term recovery. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting a loved one through it.
