My rock bottom was more of a slow and steady crash and burn.
Ever felt like you're the only one struggling with addiction? Lisa N.'s story on 'The Bubble Hour' will change that. In this heartfelt episode, Lisa N., a co-founder and former co-host of the podcast, opens up about her journey through the highs and lows of alcoholism. She shares how drinking initially made her feel more sociable and helped her mask feelings of isolation.
However, life took a darker turn when she faced postpartum depression and the sudden death of her father, leading her to use alcohol as an escape route. Her rock bottom wasn't a dramatic crash but a slow descent into despair, which eventually forced her to confront her addiction and seek help. Lisa N. talks about the vital role of support systems—both online and in-person—in her recovery.
She also touches on the societal pressures mothers face to be perfect and how she navigated these expectations while staying sober. Additionally, Lisa emphasizes the importance of addressing grief and difficult emotions head-on rather than numbing them with alcohol. This episode is a testament to the power of community and resilience, reminding us all that recovery is achievable with the right support and mindset.
