Breaking it, listening to other people, being around other people, seeing and hearing other people's success or non-success stories and really digging into my own background, and you know, honestly I'm telling you, for me was the actual physical activity of working the steps, and I know some people you like rolling their eyes like, oh, that shit doesn't work. Well, maybe it doesn't work for you, but it works for me and it works for a lot of people.
Ever wondered how someone can break free from a life steeped in alcohol? In this episode of Podcast Recovery, Tom L. opens up about his journey from growing up in a family of drinkers to finding hope and sobriety. Born into an environment where drinking was the norm, Tom was introduced to alcohol early on and quickly became captivated by its social allure.
But as life threw curveballs his way, alcohol became more than just a social lubricant—it turned into a crutch during tough times. Despite numerous attempts to quit, Tom found himself entangled in the grip of addiction for many years. A particularly devastating night of drinking served as his wake-up call, pushing him to seek help. Through candid discussions with hosts David O.
and Eric B., Tom shares how he worked through the steps of recovery and developed tools to maintain his sobriety. He stresses the importance of listening to others' success stories and digging deep into one's own past to understand the root causes of addiction. Tom's story isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding hope and reclaiming life. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone touched by addiction, whether personally or through a loved one.
Tune in for an honest, heartfelt conversation that underscores the transformative power of recovery.
