In sobriety, when our stories came out, there's a lot of tears from in the room when you start looking around and you realize you're not the only parent that's almost destroyed this whole thing, and you don't know how it didn't get destroyed.
Ever felt like the weight of the world was on your shoulders? Robbie's story might resonate with you. In this heartfelt episode of 'Voices in Recovery', host David Lewry sits down with Robbie, a man who has faced the depths of addiction and emerged with a newfound appreciation for life and community. Robbie opens up about his early struggles with grief and loss, which led him to withdraw into himself.
He candidly shares how these feelings of isolation and the need to numb his pain with alcohol spiraled into a full-blown addiction. But Robbie's story doesn't end there. He talks about the turning point in his life when he found a supportive community that helped him realize he wasn't alone. This episode dives into the power of spirituality in Robbie's recovery journey.
He discusses how connecting with a higher power helped him let go of fear and self-doubt, paving the way for healing. Robbie also touches on the importance of storytelling in recovery, finding solace in sharing his experiences and listening to others. Relationships in sobriety can be challenging, and Robbie doesn't shy away from this topic. He speaks openly about the strain his addiction put on his marriage and family, and the ongoing work required to rebuild trust and connection.
His words serve as a reminder that recovery is a continuous journey, filled with both moments of doubt and strength. As the conversation wraps up, Robbie offers wisdom for those grappling with addiction or new to recovery. He emphasizes patience and the importance of seeking support, reassuring listeners that hope and help are always within reach.
