The change starts with me. If I change, everything around me will change because I'll see it differently.
What happens when a mother battles alcoholism? In this moving episode of 'Esperanza de Vida', Madrina Norma opens up about her struggle with alcohol and the ripple effects it had on her family. She recounts the painful moments she missed with her children and the deep fear of being alone that drove her to drink. Yet, amidst the darkness, she found hope and support in the community around her.
Norma's story is a powerful reminder of how addiction impacts not just the individual but their loved ones too. Children of alcoholic parents often face emotional and psychological challenges, witnessing things no child should see. Norma bravely acknowledges the hurt her addiction caused her kids and the precious moments lost. She urges others to consider how their actions affect those they care about. One of the most significant lessons Norma shares is the value of community and support.
She found comfort and guidance in the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, realizing she didn't have to face her demons alone. Seeking help was a turning point in her journey, showing that asking for support is a strength, not a weakness. Norma's journey to recovery wasn't easy, but it was transformative. Her story is filled with hope and the belief that change is possible.
She encourages others to take that first step towards a better future, saying, 'The change starts with me. If I change, everything around me will change because I'll see it differently'. Tune in to hear Madrina Norma's full story on 'Madres Alcoholicas', part of the 'Esperanza de Vida' series. It's a testament to resilience and the power of community in overcoming addiction.
