Sobriety in the Time of COVID-19: Matt and Sheri Salis Share Their Journey

One thing I'm not worried about: I'm not worried about you getting a pregnancy test. And you know- I don't know that when we record we always have a message, necessarily for people. I feel like we've got a message, and it's for those families that are in the throes of alcoholism or in the early stages of recovery.
Picture this: you're stuck at home, the world feels like it's closing in, and the news is a constant stream of anxiety. For many, this scenario during the COVID-19 pandemic led to reaching for a drink to cope. But what if alcohol only made things worse? That's exactly what Matt and Sheri Salis discuss in this episode of the Untoxicated Podcast.
Drawing from their own experiences with alcoholism, they dive into the unique challenges the pandemic presents for those in recovery. They candidly talk about the dangers of turning to alcohol during such crises and emphasize the importance of finding strength in sobriety. Matt recalls how he once coped with isolation by drinking vodka and watching endless news, a path he urges others to avoid.
Sheri shares insights on parenting during these tough times and how to maintain a sense of normalcy for kids. They also touch on the economic impact on small businesses and offer a message of hope for families grappling with addiction. Whether you're struggling with your own sobriety or supporting a loved one, this episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt stories. It's a reminder that even in the darkest times, there's always a way to find light.
