From Darkness to Light: Robbie Kinloch's Path to Sobriety

It's not about never doing drugs again, it's not about never drinking again. So it's like, and I still very much enjoy the taste of beer, and it's like I crave, like I'm like I still want to have a drink.
Ever met someone who turned their life around in the most inspiring way? Cynthia Morton sits down with Robbie Kinloch, a young man who did just that. At 19, Robbie was battling the grip of party drugs, heavy marijuana use, and the lure of excessive gaming. Anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts were his constant companions. But today, he's nine months sober, and his gaming addiction has transformed into a charitable hobby. How did he do it?
This episode dives into Robbie's journey, revealing the emotional hurdles he overcame and the strategies that helped him rise above his challenges. Robbie opens up about the raw realities of quitting drugs, the significance of brutal honesty with oneself, and the power of seeking support. Relationships played a crucial role in his recovery, and he shares candid insights on navigating friendships and romantic ties while staying clean.
Self-care and solitude became his allies, helping him dodge triggers and focus on building a meaningful life. From pursuing passions like music and filmmaking to practicing gratitude and kindness, Robbie's story is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction or mental health issues. Tune in for a dose of inspiration, practical tips, and a reminder that recovery is not just about abstaining from substances but about crafting a fulfilling life.
