From the time I was Years old I just I made this distinction between being an alcoholic and having a drinking problem.
Ever wondered what it's like to live multiple lives through the haze of alcohol? Don's story gives you a front-row seat. Raised in the South in an alcohol-free home, Don found himself drawn to the allure of drinking. It started innocently enough, but soon he was creating alternate personas for himself, each one more daring than the last. His drinking escalated, and before long, he was driving drunk, circling freeways while singing and talking to himself.
The line between reality and his fantasies blurred, isolating him from family and friends. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Don opens up about his downward spiral and how he finally made the distinction between having a drinking problem and being an alcoholic. His turning point came through Alcoholics Anonymous, where he found the support and tools needed for recovery.
Today, Don has reconnected with his grown children and is living his dreams, working in Washington and residing in New York. His journey is a powerful reminder that transformation is possible, no matter how far you've fallen. Tune in to hear Don's candid and inspiring story.
