Don't be afraid to ask for help and you've got to get over the regret, the shame and the guilt, because as long as you're beating yourself up about it, you're not moving forward.
Jennifer F. has faced more than her fair share of challenges, but her story is one of resilience and hope. As a single mom living just outside Ottawa, Canada, Jennifer has recently completed a ten-week rehab program at a Salvation Army center in Toronto. With nearly ten weeks of sobriety under her belt, she opens up about her journey to overcome alcohol addiction in this compelling episode of 'Recovery In Real Life'.
Jennifer's candid discussion with host Bruce Roberts dives into the heart of her struggles, from the impact of alcoholism on her relationships and job to the overwhelming feelings of guilt and shame. She doesn't shy away from the hard truths, but she also shares the strategies that have helped her stay sober. Engaging in hobbies and physical activities, Jennifer has found new ways to fill her time and focus her energy.
Rehab has been a cornerstone of Jennifer's recovery, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which has provided her with tools to manage her thoughts and behaviors. One of the most powerful aspects of her story is her willingness to seek help and build a supportive network. Jennifer talks about the importance of talking to others and maintaining positive relationships, which have been crucial in her recovery.
Experimenting with non-alcoholic drink options has also been a fun and helpful part of Jennifer's journey. She shares how trying new flavors and beverages has added a bit of joy to her path to sobriety. Despite the fears of relapse and potential setbacks, Jennifer remains focused on taking things one day at a time and maintaining a positive mindset. This episode is a testament to the strength and bravery required to fight addiction.
Jennifer's story is not just about overcoming alcohol dependency; it's about finding hope and building a healthier life for herself and her family. Tune in to hear Jennifer's inspiring journey and gain insights into the challenges and triumphs of sobriety.
