Change is scary, especially when it comes to addiction recovery. The 'Recovery for Life' podcast dives deep into this fear in their episode 'Fear of Feeling - RFL UNCUT'. Chris Howard, a counsellor at Indigo Recovery in New York City, leads a heartfelt discussion with guests who share their personal battles and victories over the anxiety that comes with sobriety.
They tackle questions that many of us have probably asked ourselves: 'What if I can't handle sobriety?' or 'What will life be like without my substance?' These fears are raw and real, but so is the courage to face them. In this episode, the group emphasizes the importance of staying present and trusting the process. They talk about coping with uncomfortable feelings, embracing self-love, and the necessity of gratitude.
One of the standout moments is when a guest says, 'In order to change our lives, we have to walk through our fears. There is no shortcut and no side street, no secret alley.' This sentiment resonates deeply as it underscores the reality that facing our fears head-on is the only way forward. The discussion also highlights medication-assisted recovery, providing a balanced view of its benefits and challenges. The guests stress that everyone's journey is unique—there's no one-size-fits-all approach.
They share how finding a support system and staying accountable has helped them navigate their emotional health. For anyone struggling with the fear of change in recovery, this episode offers a comforting reminder: you're not alone. The shared stories and insights serve as a beacon of hope, encouraging listeners to push through their fears and emerge stronger on the other side.
