I was restless, irritable, discontent, since I was Five. And alcohol made me happy, joyous and free. And so until it stopped doing that, until the alcohol, when drinking, I still was restless, irritable, discontent, and that was the turning point, that was this gift of desperation where my solution stopped being saluting- just kidding, that's not a word.
Ever wondered how resentment can hinder your path to recovery? In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X sits down with Sam to dig into the concept of forgiveness as outlined in the 'How It Works' chapter of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. The duo shares raw and personal stories about their battles with resentment and how embracing forgiveness has been pivotal in their journey to sobriety.
They discuss the importance of taking an active role in one's recovery and how spiritual growth can help build character and virtue. You'll hear about the pitfalls of self-pity and anger, and how leading with the heart can open doors to solutions you never thought possible. The conversation wraps up with a heartfelt prayer for those still struggling with alcoholism, and a warm invitation to join the supportive community of alcoholics on their path to recovery.
Tune in for an episode that's both enlightening and deeply personal, offering practical advice and emotional support for anyone touched by addiction.
