I consider alcoholism a disease of loneliness, because everybody I know has died from this.
Ever wondered what it takes to stay sober for over a decade? Meet Vick, a man whose 13-year journey through sobriety is nothing short of inspiring. In this episode of Recovery Edge, Vick opens up about his life-changing experience with the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. But don't expect the usual 'what it was like, what happened, and what it's like now' narrative.
Instead, Vick dives into the deeper value he found in the AA program and how it transformed his life. Vick doesn't shy away from discussing his three major relapses before he fully embraced the program. He likens his determination to a 'hungry bear', showing just how fiercely he tackled his recovery. Through fellowship and prayer, Vick found a way to overcome the loneliness that often accompanies alcoholism.
He also shares how step four helped him understand his fears and resentments, while step seven guided him to ask for help in removing his shortcomings. One of the most powerful lessons Vick learned is that every storm has a lesson. He believes that the fellowship can act as a higher power, especially in those crucial first few months. The joy and freedom he discovered with the support of the program are palpable as he speaks.
Now, at peace and celebrating his years in the program, Vick's story is a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction. If you're searching for inspiration and practical advice on your recovery journey, Vick's story is a must-listen. Tune in to Recovery Edge and discover how the AA program can help you conquer loneliness, fear, and resentments.
