Nothing good comes from drinking, and if I say that to myself anytime I'm thinking about alcohol, it kind of it gets me back in the right, you know, perspective.
Alison's journey to sobriety is a powerful testament to the strength of self-awareness and acceptance. In this episode of 'Many Paths to Sobriety', Alison opens up about her 15-month sober milestone and the challenges she faced along the way. Her story is one of resilience, marked by battles with self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and the scars of sexual abuse.

Through therapy and counseling, Alison began to unravel these destructive patterns and rebuild her life. She highlights the crucial role that self-awareness and acceptance played in her recovery, emphasizing that understanding oneself is a key component of healing.
Alison also touches on the significance of community support and shared experiences in her journey, illustrating how connecting with others can provide strength and hope.

Alison's honest and authentic sharing provides a beacon of hope for those struggling with similar issues, showing that with the right tools and community, it is possible to break free from the chains of addiction.
