I think it's quite important not to get addicted to NA and AA, because people can be, and it can become more of a social event than a meeting. So it's more of what you get from that meeting.
Jumping headfirst into big decisions can be risky, especially in the early stages of recovery. In this episode of 'Flat Out Recovery', the hosts tackle the tricky terrain of decision-making when you're fresh out of addiction. They offer a grounded perspective on why it's crucial to take your time and weigh all factors before making significant life changes. The discussion also delves into the potential pitfalls of over-relying on AA and NA meetings.
Are these gatherings a lifeline or a social crutch? The hosts emphasize the importance of extracting real value from these meetings, rather than just ticking a box on your social calendar. Adding another layer to the conversation, Michael joins in to share his journey and the role TikTok has played in his recovery process. This episode is a mix of humor, real talk, and practical advice, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating the path to sobriety.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find relatable stories and valuable insights here.
