Just remember, seek pleasure in places besides drugs, and then you also get to feel proud of the days that you don't relapse totally and it gets better over.
Ever wondered what it's like to be dope sick in the middle of a combat zone? This episode of 'Dopey' takes you right into the thick of it with hosts Dave and Chris, who are joined by combat vet Rob. Rob leaves a voicemail recounting a harrowing experience where he was battling both enemy troops and the severe symptoms of drug withdrawal.
It's raw, it's real, and it's a stark reminder of the lengths people go to for their next fix. But that's just the beginning. Chris brings up an intriguing thought experiment: what if a drug addict woke up one day with complete amnesia? How would they navigate life without the memories of their addiction? It's a fascinating discussion that will leave you pondering long after the episode ends.
The laughs continue as Dave and Chris reminisce about some of the best bathrooms they've ever gotten high in, proving that even in the darkest times, humor can be a saving grace. Dave also shares a personal story about wetting the bed while sober, showing that recovery isn't always a straight path and that setbacks are part of the journey.
And just when you think it can't get any more eclectic, they dive into a discussion about Bill Murray's eccentric behavior and Dave even makes up his own Leonard Cohen song. Through all the chaos and comedy, this episode underscores the importance of finding humor in tough situations and sharing your experiences with others who understand.
It's a wild ride from start to finish, but one that ultimately reminds us that sobriety is an ongoing journey filled with ups, downs, and unexpected moments of joy.
