If you're just talking about being absent, if you're just talking about like: well, I quit drinking, but you didn't do anything about any of the rest of the stuff that I just described, like you don't do any of that excavation, you don't dig down aside you, you don't figure out what the causes and conditions are and figure out how to unburden yourself with them, then they're just still in there, being tumorous.
What’s the real difference between sobriety and abstinence? In this thought-provoking episode of Misfit Stars, Shannon Curtis and Jamie Hill press pause on Jamie's personal recovery story to untangle these concepts.
