The whole point of attempting to destigmatize addiction is that we aren't going to be thinking about the person as the problem, but maybe the person has some struggles, right.
Have you ever felt like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? In this episode of Sober Baby, Marina and her sister, 35mman, sit down with Milan, who opens up about her tumultuous journey through addiction and the road to sobriety. Milan starts by introducing herself and casually mentions she's drinking water, setting the tone for a raw and honest conversation.
Marina takes a moment to thank listeners for their support and emphasizes the importance of seeing addiction as a struggle rather than a personal flaw. Milan dives into her early encounters with addiction, from sneaking alcohol into her purse to grappling with low self-esteem. She shares how criticism made her feel unloved and inadequate, eventually leading her to rehab. It was there she discovered that sobriety isn't a one-size-fits-all journey.
The discussion then moves to practical aspects like handling cravings and navigating relationships while staying sober. Milan talks about how she's learned to invest her time differently and find new sources of inspiration. The episode wraps up with a candid discussion on societal norms, especially the challenges of going to bars with partners who still drink. Throughout the episode, Marina and 35mman create a supportive atmosphere, making this a must-listen for anyone on their own path to recovery.
