Dr. Declan: Breaking Free from Alcohol and Thriving Again

I found that the ups since I quit drinking are actually higher... perhaps that's something that you've noticed as well, or something that you will notice as time goes on.
Imagine being a medical professional, saving lives by day, but secretly battling a heavy drinking problem by night. That's the story of Dr. Declan, who once embodied the high-functioning yet deeply struggling alcoholic. Growing up, alcohol was woven into the fabric of his social life. It started as a way to unwind but soon became a crutch that affected his health, fitness, and career. In this episode of Elevation Recovery, Dr. Declan opens up about his journey to sobriety.
He faced the dual challenge of maintaining a successful career while dealing with addiction—a struggle compounded by stigma and denial. Despite his outward success, he knew he wasn't living his best life. Traditional recovery methods like AA didn't click for him. Instead, he sought a more personalized approach that included physical fitness, healthy habits, and a positive mindset. Discovering resources like Fit Recovery helped him to challenge his limiting beliefs and embrace a holistic recovery plan. Today, Dr.
Declan is not just surviving but thriving. He enjoys his work, family, and hobbies with newfound energy and focus. He acknowledges that recovery is a bumpy road with its ups and downs but sees each challenge as an opportunity for growth. Dr. Declan's story is a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction. He encourages others to explore various recovery options and find what works best for them.
Tune in to hear his inspiring journey and gain insights into living a fulfilling life free from alcohol.
