That he’s still sober some 27 years later is proof positive that a good sober life can be built and sustained by active participation in AA.
Picture this: Jason G. found himself staring down the barrel of a cocked revolver, contemplating the unthinkable. It was in that harrowing moment he reached out to a higher power for help. Fast forward 27 years, and Jason is a living testament to the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
In this gripping episode of 'AA Recovery Interviews', hosted by Howard L., Jason recounts his journey from early adolescent drinking to becoming a functional alcoholic whose life was unraveling before his eyes. Despite attempts by his fraternity brothers to intervene during his college years, Jason's drinking spiraled out of control, leading to blackouts and the disintegration of his marriage.
His rock bottom was marked by that fateful night with the revolver, but it also became the turning point that led him to AA. Through active participation and working the steps, Jason has managed to stay sober for over two decades. He also opens up about battling depression alongside his alcoholism, highlighting the dual challenges many face on their road to recovery.
This episode is not just a story of survival but a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the life-changing impact of AA's principles. Whether you're on your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Jason's story offers hope and inspiration.
