In the early stages of recovery, you are massively underestimating the extent to which you can deal with the things that you might've been able to deal with before you had a drink problem or the people that you're seeing around you.
Change can be a double-edged sword, especially when you're in the early stages of addiction recovery. In this episode of 'Sideways', Graham Landi and Martin Pankhurst chat about why it's crucial to keep things steady during the first year of recovery. They dive into the potential pitfalls of taking on too much too soon, like moving house or jetting off on a holiday.
Their conversation is peppered with personal anecdotes, including a quirky debate over travel mugs and some surprising facts about dolphins dabbling in narcotics. They also touch on more serious topics like relationships and dating while in recovery, emphasizing the benefits of discussing planned changes with a support group. The hosts remind us that recovery is a marathon, not a sprint, and highlight the importance of celebrating milestones and showing gratitude along the way.
With their blend of humor and heartfelt advice, Graham and Martin make this episode both engaging and informative. Whether you're new to recovery or supporting someone who is, you'll find valuable insights and plenty of laughs in this episode of 'Sideways'.
