When a person tries to control their drinking, they have already lost control.
Ever thought you could control your drinking, only to find it controlling you instead? In this episode of the 'Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast', Sarah M. from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania shares reflections on the elusive nature of control in the context of alcoholism. Drawing from a variety of AA resources like 'Twenty-Four Hours A Day', 'A.A. Thought for the Day', and 'Daily Reflections', this episode dives into the common struggle many face with managing their drinking habits.
Sarah's readings highlight the paradox that many alcoholics experience: the harder they try to control their drinking, the more they realize they’ve lost control. But it’s not all about struggle; there’s also a focus on the importance of unity and support. One story shared involves a group in New York that would follow one person's ideas for a while, then switch to another's, yet they stayed sober as long as they stuck together and communicated openly.
This episode also touches on the lighter side of recovery. The gift of laughter is emphasized as a powerful tool to help lighten the journey and maintain focus on sobriety. Faith is another cornerstone discussed, providing inner security and a sense of purpose that can be crucial for those in recovery. If you’re navigating your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of camaraderie. Tune in to hear Sarah M.
share these daily AA readings that can offer both reflection and inspiration on your journey.
