I fought for so long the idea that I had a problem because I thought I couldn't have a problem if I had been okay in other areas in my life.
Imagine facing the challenge of getting sober during a global pandemic. That's exactly what Hannah did. In this episode of 'Sober Friends', Hannah opens up about her journey to sobriety that began when COVID-19 turned the world upside down. With traditional AA meetings shut down, she found herself attending her first AA meeting on Zoom. Despite the initial hurdles, she persevered and has recently started attending in-person 12-step meetings.
Hannah, in her early 20s, had a brief but intense relationship with alcohol. She shares candidly about what made her realize she had a problem and how she found her first meeting. The pandemic may have changed the fellowship dynamics, but it didn't stop her from seeking help and finding a community. Throughout the episode, Hannah discusses the challenges of staying sober in social situations and the strategies she's developed to navigate them.
She also reflects on the positive changes sobriety has brought to her life, from improved mental health to stronger relationships. This episode isn't just for those struggling with addiction; it's for anyone who feels isolated or uncertain about their next steps in recovery. Hannah's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of connection, even in the most challenging times.
