Belonging is really your connection with something bigger than yourself. It was like I was standing right next to him, and what I felt in that whole thing, in which I've hung onto for years, is that all I felt was love, and the love was so strong that it was pushing me down.
Ever felt like you don't quite fit in? Jeff did, and it led him down a dark path of addiction. In this episode of 'Recovery Internet Radio', hosts Rick Atwater and Rob Ryberg sit down with Jeff to discuss his journey from feeling alienated to finding solace in alcohol, and eventually, hope in recovery. Jeff shares how he always felt disconnected and was searching for something bigger.
Alcohol seemed to fill that void, but it only deepened his sense of isolation. Even before his recovery began, Jeff had several spiritual experiences and even considered the ministry, but the bottle kept pulling him back. Tired of his own negativity and judgmental attitude, Jeff found AA and began to shed his 'judgmental God'. He talks about the pivotal role that spirituality and community played in his recovery, emphasizing the importance of finding a supportive group of friends.
Jeff also highlights how treatment centers can provide the necessary tools for lasting recovery. His story is a testament to the power of belonging and connection. As Jeff puts it, 'Belonging is really your connection with something bigger than yourself'. Tune in to hear Jeff's inspiring journey and discover the transformative power of community and spirituality in recovery.
