The idea that actually being sober is a place of comfort. You don't have to worry about what you did the night before. You don't have to worry about doing something that's going to involve breaking the law and you don't remember or you do it under the influence.
Why do some people find it so hard to ask for help with alcohol addiction? In this episode of The Alcohol Recovery Show, Lewis David sheds light on this pressing question. Drawing from his extensive experience in addiction services in England, Lewis shares eye-opening stories and practical advice that can make a real difference. He also talks about the origins of WinsPress and reveals his favorite book from their collection.
But the heart of the episode is Lewis's take on the barriers that stop people from seeking help and what can be done to overcome them. From stigma and shame to misinformation and fear, Lewis breaks down these obstacles and offers actionable steps to move past them. You'll also hear about the success of 'The 10-Day Alcohol Detox Plan' and other resources that can support your journey to sobriety.
This episode isn't just about identifying problems; it's about finding solutions and encouraging you to take that crucial first step toward recovery.
