Emotional Sobriety: Finding Balance After Addiction with Mike and Nat

The quality of our recovery is determined by how we respond to the problems or challenges in our lives. But because we don’t know how best to respond to these issues, we end up stuck and frustrated. Emotional sobriety is a state in which we experience our emotions and respect them.
What happens when the substances are gone, but the emotional rollercoaster remains? In this episode of 'Recovery in the Middle Ages', Mike and Nat tackle the often overlooked yet crucial aspect of recovery: emotional sobriety. Using Dr. Alan Berger's book '12 Smart Things to Do When the Booze and Drugs Are Gone' as a guide, they break down what emotional sobriety really means and why it’s vital for anyone on the path to recovery.
Mike and Nat share their personal struggles and triumphs, making the topic relatable and engaging. They discuss how emotional sobriety isn't about suppressing feelings but rather understanding and responding to them in a healthy way. The duo dives into the impact of addiction on relationships and how respecting your emotions can pave the way for more fulfilling connections.
From practical tips to thought-provoking discussions, this episode offers a treasure trove of advice for anyone looking to maintain their sobriety and find happiness beyond addiction. Whether you’re new to recovery or have been on this journey for a while, Mike and Nat’s insights will resonate with you. They blend humor with heartfelt honesty, making even the toughest topics easier to digest.
