And one thing that nearly every sober person will tell you once they've got a good way in and they kind of managed to deal with all the initial challenges and feelings and thoughts and all the things that come up is that you don't regret getting sober.
Picture yourself living in a culture where drinking is the norm, and then deciding to break free from it. In this episode of 'Voices of Sobriety', Trisha from Sligo, North West Ireland, shares her compelling journey of staying sober for 136 days. Living with her husband and three children, Trisha opens up about the deep impact of losing her mother to alcohol-related causes at just 60 years old.
This personal tragedy was a turning point that made her reconsider her relationship with alcohol. She initially tried to moderate her drinking but eventually realized that complete sobriety was the way forward. Working with a mindset coach has been transformative for Trisha, leading to numerous new opportunities in her life. She talks about how simple changes like rearranging furniture, diving into books about sobriety, and enjoying zero-alcohol drinks have helped her stay on track.
Trisha’s story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of creating a supportive environment for oneself. Whether you’re on your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Trisha’s experiences offer practical tips and heartfelt encouragement.
