I would be lying to you if I told you that Jerry and I didn't have conversations about you and be like: is he going to be okay? I definitely feel that it's pretty, but it gets stronger as time goes on, if you let it and if you do the right things with it.
Imagine catching up with an old friend who’s walked the same rocky road of addiction and recovery as you. In this episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', hosts Jerry and John sit down with their longtime friend Coda, who’s now two years sober. Their friendship dates back to the early '90s, and they’ve seen each other through the highs and lows of heavy drinking.
Now, Coda opens up about his journey to sobriety and the importance of keeping those old connections alive. Coda's story isn't just about quitting alcohol; it’s about the whole package of recovery. He talks about dealing with regret, making amends, and how religion has played a part in his life. Legal troubles? He’s been there too and shares how he's navigated those choppy waters.
But it's not all heavy stuff; there's also talk of the benefits of staying active and how to manage those pesky negative thoughts and emotions that creep in. One thing that stands out is Coda's emphasis on the power of positive relationships. Whether it’s old friends or new support systems, he believes these connections are vital. He also touches on finding strength in stubbornness and overcoming those haunting drinking dreams that many in recovery face.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that staying in touch with old friends can be a lifeline in recovery. It’s a blend of personal stories and practical advice that makes you feel like you’re sitting in on a chat between close mates. If you're navigating your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers a comforting mix of empathy and insight.
