What makes a recovery story truly inspiring? In this heartfelt episode, Mickey B. shares his journey through the ups and downs of alcoholism and addiction, all with a touch of humour and a hefty dose of honesty. Mickey, an active member of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), opens up about his reliance on the AA book as his 'prop' and how it helps him stay grounded in his sobriety.
He describes the emotional rollercoaster of recovery and the importance of connecting with his feelings, which he amusingly refers to as 'gratitude attacks.'
Mickey's tale is not just about quitting alcohol but embracing a life of meetings, support, and spirituality. He recounts his travels across continents to attend AA meetings, illustrating the lengths he's willing to go to maintain his sobriety.
His anecdotes, such as the story of a stolen Walkman leading someone to an AA meeting, showcase the unexpected ways recovery can touch lives. Mickey also reflects on the broader principles of AA, emphasising that it's not just about abstaining from alcohol but applying its teachings to all aspects of life. His candidness about his struggles with self-sabotage and denial adds depth to his narrative, making it relatable for anyone on a similar path.
Mickey's story is a reminder that recovery is a continuous journey, filled with challenges but also profound growth and connection. So, how do you find strength in your journey to sobriety?
