I was doing it because I didn't want to feel anymore...Life today is so much better than what it was days ago. My hope today is we reach one person.
Imagine facing the world with just 102 days of sobriety under your belt. That's exactly where Steve V found himself when he sat down with the hosts of the Sober Friends podcast. Steve's story is a raw and honest account of a life shaped by alcohol from his very first drink. He shares how his drinking habits led to the collapse of his marriage and exacerbated the pressures of his job as a first responder.
Moving out and living alone only made things worse, pushing him deeper into alcoholism. Despite attending rehab, Steve found himself relapsing until a pivotal fight with his ex made him commit fully to the 12-step program. This episode dives into the mental toll of being a first responder and how a specialized treatment center for police, EMTs, and firefighters helped Steve find his footing.
Through candid discussions, Steve offers practical tips for staying sober and emphasizes the importance of honesty and community in recovery. If you're at the beginning of your sobriety journey or considering it, Steve's story might just be the inspiration you need.
