I've been saved from the hopeless state of mind and body.
Picture yourself in the throes of intense back pain, reaching for prescribed opioids to find relief, only to spiral into addiction. That’s the reality Corby M. faced. Initially entering AA in 2017, Corby’s path was derailed by a relapse in 2020, a story that's becoming all too familiar in today’s world. The misuse of painkillers led him back to alcohol, despite his efforts within the AA program.
After hitting rock bottom and undergoing inpatient treatment, Corby clawed his way back into the Fellowship with renewed determination. In this episode of 'AA Recovery Interviews', host Howard L. sits down with Corby to unpack his journey from relapse to recovery. Corby opens up about the challenges of pain management and self-prescribing medication, shedding light on the slippery slope many face.
He also discusses the impact his addiction had on his relationships and family, emphasizing the importance of finding a higher power and committing to the steps of AA. What stands out is Corby's dedication to service within AA. By becoming more active in his Club and sharing his hard-won wisdom with newcomers and those who have relapsed, Corby exemplifies the spirit of community and support that AA fosters.
His story is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction, illustrating that recovery is possible with commitment and the right support system. Tune in to hear Corby's inspiring journey and discover the transformative power of community in overcoming addiction.
