It was for me the realization that I'm not alone, that I'm not alone, that there are many others like me, doctors, and for you guys out there, it's the same message, whatever you think, however unique you think you are in your suffering and in your shame and in your guilt.
What happens when you hit rock bottom but decide to climb back up? In this episode of 'Steps to Sobriety', host Stephan Neff chats with Denise Cloughley, a woman who has transformed her life from the depths of addiction to a beacon of hope. Denise's journey began in Capri Hospital, where she and Stephan first met as fellow patients. Fast forward several years, and both have emerged stronger, living lives they once thought impossible.
Denise shares her candid story, touching on the dark humor of comparing liver function tests and hiding bottles, to the profound moments of self-discovery and healing. She opens up about the inadequacies of some treatment centers and the vital role of community and accountability in recovery. Denise's message is clear: the past does not define the future. Her experiences highlight the importance of perseverance, rebuilding relationships, and addressing mental health issues in the path to sobriety.
This episode is a testament to the power of self-love and the unwavering belief that change is possible. If you or someone you know is battling addiction, Denise's story will inspire you to keep going.
