My point is that it's kind of a cop-out, and I feel like I copped out in life using my traumatic event against telling people I have a fucking disease, I have a problem, and I drink because of that.
Ever wondered how to navigate holidays like the Fourth of July without reaching for a drink? Charlie and Joey are here to share their candid experiences and tips in Episode 11 of their podcast. These two friends from Long Island bring their usual mix of humor and heartfelt discussion to topics that matter deeply to anyone on a sobriety journey.
This episode dives into the challenges of staying sober during holiday celebrations, the importance of support groups, and the role of personal responsibility in recovery. Charlie and Joey don't shy away from tough conversations. They talk openly about their own struggles with addiction and the steps they've taken to stay on track. One key takeaway? The importance of having a support system.
Whether it's attending meetings or surrounding yourself with people who understand your journey, having a network can make all the difference. The hosts also touch on the topic of trauma and how it can impact one's path to sobriety. Joey shares his personal story of using past trauma as an excuse for his behavior, only to realize that taking responsibility was crucial for his recovery. This episode is filled with real-life anecdotes that many will find relatable and inspiring.
Charlie and Joey's approach is refreshingly honest and compassionate. They offer practical advice, like driving yourself to events so you can leave if you feel uncomfortable, or even attending a Zoom meeting from your car. Their dedication to staying sober is evident, and they encourage listeners to reach out if they need support. If you're looking for a podcast that combines humor, honesty, and practical tips for sobriety, this episode is a must-listen.
