There is something about being with other people. And when I learned that lesson, the hardest is not This Year, but The Previous Year, when my health just went down ridiculously.
When you're on the path to recovery, finding support can sometimes come from the most unexpected places. In this episode of 'This Is Not A Meeting', hosts Scottage, Jimbo, and Big Joe dive into the importance of having a strong support system. They share their own experiences and reflect on how addiction has impacted their relationships with friends and family.
The trio also talks about the power of giving without expecting anything in return and challenges the 'me versus the world' mentality that can hinder building a support network. One of the highlights of this episode is Tim's story. Tim found support in a place he never anticipated – through his faith and his love for traveling. His journey is a testament to how unconventional paths can lead to profound recovery.
The hosts also discuss the difficulties of finding trustworthy friends during recovery and the benefits of surrounding oneself with supportive people. They emphasize learning from role models and the importance of giving back to the community as ways to strengthen one's support system. This episode offers practical advice and valuable insights for anyone struggling with addiction or trying to build a reliable support network.
Whether you're looking for inspiration or practical tips, this conversation sheds light on the many ways support can manifest in your recovery journey.
