It's hard to fall off the edge if you're standing in the middle
Ever felt like you were living on the edge? In this episode of 'Canadian Sober Eh!', host Dougie Fresh sits down with Adam to explore his compelling journey to sobriety. Adam's story kicks off with a nod to the Aerosmith song 'Livin' On The Edge', a tune that perfectly encapsulates his past struggles with alcohol.
He opens up about using humor and a facade to hide his problems, and how he learned a crucial lesson: it's hard to fall off the edge if you're standing in the middle. Adam delves into his experiences within fraternity culture, shedding light on how peer pressure and the need to fit in fueled his addiction. But it's not all doom and gloom. Adam shares how he found the strength to seek treatment and begin his path to recovery.
He emphasizes the importance of staying open to change and the pivotal role a sponsor can play in addiction recovery. This episode isn't just about Adam's past; it's about the hope and freedom that come with recovery. His story is a powerful reminder that no matter how far you've fallen, there's always a way back if you're willing to stand in the middle and stay committed to the journey.
Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Adam's insights on alcohol abuse, peer pressure, and recovery offer valuable takeaways. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that blends humor, honesty, and hope, and discover how standing in the middle can be your key to freedom.
