In this episode of Sober Cast, Amy D shares her powerful journey of recovery at the 2024 District 22 Convention in San Luis Obispo, California. Amy's story is one of resilience and transformation, beginning with her struggles as a 'low bottom drunk' and culminating in her finding solace and strength in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). With a mix of humour and raw honesty, Amy recounts her experiences of loneliness, isolation, and the dangerous behaviours that characterised her drinking years.
She talks about the impact of her father's sobriety and how it influenced her own path to recovery. Amy's candid narrative touches on the physical and emotional toll of alcoholism, the allergic reaction she had to alcohol, and the craving that drove her to drink more. Her reflections on her family's influence, particularly her father's 30 years of sobriety, provide a poignant backdrop to her story.
Amy also discusses the importance of AA meetings, the support of her sponsor, and the significance of service work in maintaining her sobriety. This episode is a compelling listen for anyone seeking understanding and hope in their own recovery journey. Amy's story is a testament to the power of community and the life-changing impact of AA. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, Amy's experiences offer valuable insights and encouragement.
