I had hope that I was going to take a drink today and it was going to be different than all the days before because today I was going to fill in the blank.
Ever feel like you're alone in your struggles with addiction? Dion Miller and Nate B. break down that wall in this eye-opening episode of RAW Recovery. Nate opens up about his battle with alcoholism, sharing the raw, unfiltered truth of his journey. He talks about the dark days when he hoped alcohol could somehow fit into his life again, only to find that it left him feeling more empty and anxious.
It's a story many can relate to but rarely hear spoken so honestly. Nate's candid discussion reveals how Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and the 12-step program became his lifeline. He describes the moment he realized his drinking was out of control and how AA helped him face his past, make amends, and, most importantly, discover his true self. The conversation also touches on the surprising power of embracing hopelessness as a step towards finding real freedom.
Dion and Nate's dialogue isn't just about the hardships; it's about the hope and community found in recovery. They explore the importance of seeking a second opinion on one's self-worth and how letting go of the past can open doors to a brighter present. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. It's a reminder that you're not alone and that there is always a path to healing.
