The more frequently I attended meetings, the less time and opportunity there was to go pick up that first drink
In this episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths', the focus is on the four essential pillars of recovery. These pillars are simple yet powerful steps that can make a huge difference in the journey towards sobriety. First up is the principle of not drinking or using substances between meetings. While it might sound straightforward, it’s actually quite challenging. The host shares how attending meetings frequently helped reduce the temptation to pick up that first drink.
The second pillar emphasises the importance of attending meetings regularly. Meetings serve as a support system where individuals can learn to live sober, feel a sense of belonging, and find friends who truly understand their struggles. The third pillar is about getting a sponsor. A sponsor acts as a mentor, guiding you through the 12 steps and offering invaluable support. The host stresses that having a sponsor is crucial for long-term sobriety.
Finally, the fourth pillar is working the 12 steps. This involves studying them, discussing them with your sponsor, and doing the necessary reflecting, writing, and sharing. Working the steps is described as an ongoing spiritual journey that helps individuals relieve shame and guilt, make amends, and hold themselves accountable. The episode is filled with personal anecdotes and practical advice, making it relatable and informative.
Whether you’re in recovery yourself or supporting a loved one, this episode offers valuable insights into the recovery process. Tune in to learn how these four pillars can support a lasting and meaningful recovery journey.
