This isn't a matter of choice. I had a mental illness called addictive disorder and I was clinically insane.
Ever wondered why some people react differently to alcohol? In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald shares a compelling moment that sheds light on the abnormal reaction to alcohol and its ties to addiction. Drawing from the wisdom of the founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, Joe discusses how addiction is more than just a bad habit—it's a mental illness that sets those struggling apart from casual drinkers.

This episode isn't just about Joe's story; it's a broader discussion on how recognizing this abnormal reaction can level the playing field and foster empathy. One of the key takeaways from Joe's reflections is the importance of understanding that this reaction is not a choice but a symptom of addictive disorder.
This understanding can be a game-changer for those trying to support loved ones or navigate their own recovery. If you're curious about the nuances of addiction or looking for a fresh perspective on sobriety, this episode offers both inspiration and practical insights. Tune in to hear Joe McDonald's powerful moment and gain a deeper understanding of addiction and its effects.
