Relapse Realities: Two Journeys Back to Sobriety

Ultimately I got very lucky and I could have potentially lost my professional license, which means I can't work at all.
Ever wondered what really happens when someone relapses after years of sobriety? In this episode of 'Clean or Sober', Dave sits down with two guests who have over 20 years of recovery experience between them. They open up about their personal stories, detailing the moments leading up to their relapses and the critical lessons they learned along the way.
The conversation dives into the false sense of control that often sneaks in, the vital role of accountability, and the importance of having a sponsor. They also discuss how virtual recovery meetings have become a lifeline and the constant battle against fear and control. This episode is a raw, honest look at relapse, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction, whether personally or through a loved one.
It’s not just about the fall but the strength to get back up and keep moving forward.
