It's funny how our fucking mind works, right. But it's just showing me how powerful our minds are and how powerful this disease of alcoholism is, that it tricks you.
Tammy Valentine, the vibrant host of 'Sober, Sexy & Successful', takes listeners on a fascinating journey into the power of the subconscious mind in her latest episode. Ever had a dream so real that it left you shaken? Tammy did. She shares a vivid dream where she was surrounded by alcohol, waking up with the unsettling feeling of withdrawal. This experience underscores how deeply ingrained addiction can be, even in our sleep.
Tammy doesn't just stop at sharing her dream; she dives into the importance of community support in maintaining sobriety. She emphasizes the value of attending meetings and having a sponsor, tools that have been crucial in her own recovery journey. One of the most striking parts of this episode is Tammy's unique analogy: once a cucumber becomes a pickle, it can't go back to being a cucumber.
This simple yet powerful metaphor highlights the irreversible nature of addiction, making it clear that once you've crossed that line, there's no turning back. But don't worry, Tammy's honest and open storytelling isn't all doom and gloom. Her vulnerability offers hope and inspiration for anyone grappling with addiction. So, if you're looking for a heartfelt reflection on the mental battles of sobriety, or just need a reminder that you're not alone, this episode is a must-listen.
