You can take the alcohol out of the alcoholic, but that still leaves a lot of ick
Ever moved house and found yourself overwhelmed by the small, hidden messes you missed? That's exactly how Nelson H. describes his journey in sobriety in this episode of 'LOL Sober'.

He shares that even after his first year of sobriety, he realized the real work was just beginning.
Nelson candidly discusses his struggles with character flaws like being argumentative and how these issues didn't magically disappear with sobriety. Instead, they required continuous effort and self-awareness. He highlights that recovery isn't a one-time event but a lifelong journey, urging listeners to keep seeking guidance, stay open-minded, and remain committed to self-improvement. Nelson's blend of humor and honesty makes this episode both relatable and inspiring for anyone on the path to sobriety.
