The actions are not what has ever helped me. The actions don't have the power, but the actions lead me to get connected to the power somehow, because, whether we're talking about defects of character or sin, it doesn't really matter.
Imagine being trapped in a cycle where every win feels like a lifeline and every loss feels like the end. In this episode of 'Relevant Recovery Radio', hosts Heather and Donnie Mosher sit down with Hugo to uncover the raw and often misunderstood world of gambling addiction. Hugo's tale isn't just another story of addiction; it's a deep dive into the isolation, the thrill, and the despair that gambling brings.
Unlike other addictions, gambling offers immediate highs and devastating lows, creating a rollercoaster that's hard to escape. Hugo's life seemed privileged on the surface, but beneath it all, he was spiraling into debt and losing control. His candid recounting of how he reached rock bottom and began his path to recovery is both eye-opening and heart-wrenching. Heather and Donnie navigate this conversation with care, bringing out the nuances of Hugo's experience and highlighting the unique challenges of gambling addiction.
They discuss the importance of support systems, the search for a higher power, and the personal growth that comes from facing one's demons. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Hugo's story offers hope and practical insights. Tune in to hear about the power of fellowship, the significance of self-awareness, and the transformative journey towards recovery.
