Brent F. – Three Years Sober: The Power of Persistence and Community

Working with others is the real buzz, the real buzz in the program.
Ever wondered how many tries it takes to finally embrace sobriety? Brent F. knows this struggle all too well. Back in 1996, Brent made his first attempt to get sober, but it was a bumpy road filled with relapses and half-hearted efforts. He even thought he could manage sobriety while still smoking pot. Spoiler alert: it didn’t work. Despite keeping his marriage and job intact, Brent’s life was spiraling into hopelessness.
It took two interventions, three treatment centers, and a looming divorce to finally spark his genuine desire to stay sober. Brent’s story is a raw and real look at the ups and downs of addiction recovery. In this episode of AA Recovery Interviews, hosted by Howard L., Brent opens up about his journey. He talks about the spiritual awakening that finally set him on the path to lasting sobriety.
For the past three years, Brent has been fully committed to the AA program, attending daily meetings and immersing himself in the community. His story highlights the importance of persistence, service work, and the support of others in achieving contented sobriety. Brent’s experiences offer a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is. His candid reflections remind us that recovery is possible with dedication and a supportive community.
