John Perretti and David Twinn I: Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction

To think fantasy is truth is to mistakenly think thought creates reality. Thus as reality’s creator we think we become the thoughts we fixate on trying in vain to reverse nature’s order.
What happens when two fighters, both in the ring and in life, come together to share their stories? In this episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion', John Perretti and David Twinn I open up about their battles with childhood trauma, violence, racism, and addiction. Despite their different backgrounds, their journeys reveal striking similarities. From protecting themselves against racist attacks to battling the internal chaos of obsessive thoughts, these men have seen it all.
They discuss how their thoughts tried to dictate their reality, leading to a cycle of depression and hopelessness. But through emotional sobriety, they found a way out. They learned to question their thoughts and recognize that they didn't have to act on them. The episode also touches on the role of AA traditions in their recovery, highlighting how these guidelines help maintain unity and focus within the group.
Additionally, they explore the intriguing concept of lucid dreaming as a tool for overcoming mental obsessions. Their conversation is raw and inspiring, offering a candid look at the struggles and triumphs of overcoming addiction and mental turmoil.
