I've been sober longer than I've drank and I've had two lives.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life of chaos into one of clarity and purpose? Den's story on Sober Talk SA might just give you the answers you're looking for. Growing up with an alcoholic father, Den's relationship with alcohol started early. Sneaky drinks at local pubs soon spiraled into a whirlwind of drinking and stealing, leading to the breakdown of his marriage and a life that felt out of control.
But it was in a moment of sickness and desperation that Den found his turning point, realizing he needed help and turning to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Through AA, Den began to rebuild his life. He worked the steps, prayed, and got involved in service work, discovering a new sense of purpose along the way. His journey wasn't just about quitting drinking; it was about finding connection and friendship within the AA community.
Den's travels with fellow AA members and his role as a public information officer for the northern suburbs of Adelaide highlight the power of community in recovery. Den's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about transformation and second chances. As he puts it, 'I've been sober longer than I've drank and I've had two lives'.
His experiences serve as a beacon for anyone struggling with alcohol addiction, showing that recovery is possible and life can be fulfilling without alcohol. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Den's journey offers hope and inspiration. Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and found a new path through sobriety.
