Permanent sobriety is achieved One Day at a time. You know, one of the great things about aa is: everybody in the room is like minded.
Imagine growing up in a bustling household with nine siblings, the freedom to roam, and plenty of opportunities to party. This was Mike S.'s early life in Boston. But things took a darker turn when he joined the military at 18, where his drinking habits escalated. Mike's story, shared on the 'Keep Coming Back Podcast', is a powerful testament to the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and the strength it takes to seek help.
Despite having a stable job, a loving family, and a home, Mike found himself trapped in anger and depression. It all came to a head one particularly miserable weekend when he finally decided to ask for help. Picking up the phone, he declared he was ready for change and attended his first AA meeting. Through dedication and the guidance of his sponsor, Mike worked the steps and experienced a profound shift.
His obsession with alcohol faded, and along with it, his sadness. Today, Mike is a content husband, father, and active AA member. His journey underscores the importance of diving into recovery wholeheartedly and the incredible freedom that comes with sobriety. If you're seeking inspiration or a reminder that change is possible, Mike's story is one you won't want to miss.
