Surviving the First 90 Days: Sobriety, Emotions, and the Matrix

Sobriety is a journey from the trance-like state of living in the bubble society provides for us and sliding into the reality of the life we are actually living. Fear, anxiety, stress, self-doubt, and so many more undesirable emotions are awaiting you on this journey. BUT, and this is key, BUT - these emotions were waiting for you in addiction too. Sobriety doesn't take these emotions out of your life, it removes your ability to mute yourself, to push away the undesirable emotions.
Picture this: You've decided to break free from the chains of addiction, but now you're faced with a whirlwind of emotions you can't mute anymore. In episode #150 of 'From Sobriety to Recovery', host Jesse Mogle dives deep into the challenging yet transformative first 90 days of sobriety. Jesse likens addiction to living in a trance-like state, much like being trapped in the Matrix.
Now that you're out, you're experiencing life in its rawest form, where every emotion hits you like a tidal wave. But here's the twist – these emotions were always there, even during addiction. Sobriety just strips away the ability to numb them. In this milestone episode, Jesse emphasizes that embracing these emotions is key to personal growth and recovery. He talks about the importance of developing emotional resilience and using these experiences as stepping stones towards a balanced life.
Jesse's candid discussion sheds light on how sobriety doesn't eliminate fear, anxiety, or self-doubt but instead offers a new way to confront and grow through them. Jesse also explores the concept of 'the Matrix' of addiction and how breaking free from it involves not just quitting substances but also reprogramming your mind. He discusses the significance of creating a positive mindset and taking actionable steps towards change.
One of the episode's highlights is Jesse's advice on focusing on small victories and using them as a source of strength and motivation. Whether you're just starting your recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. It's a raw, honest look at what it means to live without the crutch of addiction and how to navigate the emotional tsunami that comes with it. Tune in for a dose of reality, resilience, and hope.
