Patrick and Eli's Journey: Real Talk on Recovery and Community Support

I'm much better off when I have the ability to feel my emotions and deal with them in a more controlled way.
Ever wondered what it really takes to stay sober, especially during the holidays? In this episode of 'Get in The Herd', hosts Nathan Mitchell and Justin Bognar sit down with Patrick Jones and Eli Brown, two participants at the McShin Foundation Addiction Recovery Resource Center. This conversation is as real as it gets, diving deep into the ups and downs of their recovery journeys.
Patrick and Eli open up about the emotional rollercoaster that comes with battling addiction, highlighting how crucial it is to feel and process emotions rather than bottling them up. You'll hear firsthand how community support has been a game-changer for them. They talk about the power of being surrounded by people who genuinely understand what you're going through, especially during challenging times like the holiday season when the risk of relapse is higher.
They also touch on the difference between clinical rehabs and real-life recovery situations, offering a refreshing perspective on what truly helps in staying sober. Spiritual practices come up as well, with both Patrick and Eli sharing how these have helped them stay grounded and focused. Whether it's through meditation, prayer, or other forms of spiritual connection, these practices have been vital in their journey to sobriety.
This episode isn't just about the struggles; it's also about the triumphs and the small victories that make a big difference. So if you're looking for an honest, no-holds-barred discussion on addiction recovery, this episode is for you. It's a raw, inspiring look at how real-life situations and a supportive community can make all the difference in maintaining sobriety.
