'It's my life. I'm alive. I'm no longer living a half life. I don't spend my entire life obsessing about alcohol. I don't wake up feeling like I need to be hospitalized.'
Imagine losing your partner in a tragic accident and turning to alcohol to numb the pain. That's what happened to Rosie Gill Moss from Kent, who shares her powerful story on this episode of 'Voices of Sobriety'. After her husband tragically drowned during a scuba diving trip in 2018, Rosie found herself grappling with grief and the overwhelming task of raising young children alone. Alcohol became her escape, but it came at a steep cost, both financially and emotionally.
Realizing she needed to make a change, Rosie embarked on a journey to sobriety nearly two years ago. Rosie, who also hosts her own podcast 'Widowed AF', opens up about the initial struggles of quitting alcohol and the newfound freedom she discovered in sobriety. She talks about the joy of being present for her children and the significant personal growth she's experienced.
Adding another layer to her journey, Rosie recently received an ADHD diagnosis, which has helped her understand herself better and navigate her path with more clarity. This episode isn't just about Rosie's battle with alcohol; it's about resilience, self-discovery, and the strength found in vulnerability. Rosie emphasizes the importance of setting sobriety goals, learning to say 'no', and recognizing the profound changes that come with a sober lifestyle.
Her story is a beacon of hope for anyone facing similar struggles, illustrating that even in the darkest times, there is a way forward.
