Getting sober requires a rewiring of the brain and instead of reaching for a drink, we have to learn how to reach for support.
When actor and writer Liam Fox, known for his role as Dan Spencer in ITV's Emmerdale Farm, joins David Wilson on 'One For The Road', he opens up about a deeply personal journey. Growing up with a father who struggled with alcohol for four decades, Liam shares poignant memories of his childhood and the impact his father's addiction had on their family.
His father's brief sobriety, supported by his second wife, offered a glimpse of hope, but her passing led to a tragic relapse. Liam's story doesn't end in despair, though. He talks candidly about his decision to break free from the cycle of addiction and the importance of seeking support in staying sober. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how alcoholism affects family dynamics and the resilience needed to overcome it.
Whether you're dealing with similar struggles or supporting someone who is, Liam's story offers a beacon of hope and practical advice.
