They took care of me before I could take care of myself and had faith in me before I had any type of faith in myself
Ever wondered what the secret ingredient to lasting sobriety is? In this episode of The Sober Plug, host Connor Duffy takes you on a heartfelt journey through his own recovery story, revealing a powerful yet often overlooked element - faith. Now, don't worry, this isn't about religious faith necessarily. Connor talks about the kind of faith that comes from believing things will get better, even when you're at your lowest.
He shares how he had zero faith in himself when he first got sober, but the unwavering support and belief from others in his AA meetings helped him see a glimmer of hope. Connor's candid recounting of his struggles, from starting to get high at nine years old to being on the verge of homelessness by twenty, paints a vivid picture of addiction's grip. But it's not all doom and gloom.
He explains how finding a supportive community can be life-changing. Just having a few people who genuinely care and understand your journey can make all the difference. He also touches on the importance of being open to suggestions, even if you don't fully understand them at first. This openness led him to realise that living by different principles brought better results than he ever achieved on his own.
Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with raw honesty and practical advice. So, why not give it a listen? You might just find that missing piece you've been searching for.
