Chris's Journey: The Power of Remembering Your Last Drunk

Maybe it was simply a sneaky feeling that, yes, we might be drinking too much. If we were offered a drink today, the blunt truth for us as alcoholics is that it would pretty surely mean a drunk sooner or later, and that spells trouble.
Ever wonder why the last drink sticks in your memory more than the first? In this episode of 'Canadian Sober Eh!', Doug M sits down with Chris to unpack this very question. Chris shares his raw and unfiltered experiences of getting sober, starting with his 'bad boy' days and the poignant realization that his last drunk was a turning point.
This conversation is more than just about quitting alcohol; it's about rediscovering passions, building a supportive community, and understanding the triggers that lead back to drinking. Chris talks about how he reconnected with old hobbies and found new joys in sobriety, all while being the only sober person in his friend group. Doug and Chris delve into the importance of finding a community that understands your journey, whether through local support groups or online platforms.
They also touch on the sneaky dangers of the first drink and why remembering your last drunk can be a powerful motivator to stay sober. This episode is a heartfelt and informative discussion that offers both practical advice and emotional support for anyone on the path to recovery.
