In the latest episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety', Jack and Paul delve into the complexities of sobriety, compulsive behaviours, and emotional struggles. Paul shares his journey of overcoming alcohol and drug addiction, and how he realised his compulsive eating was another facet of his struggle. He opens up about the impact of his grandmother's passing, highlighting how he resisted the urge to seek comfort in food and instead embraced his emotions.
Jack discusses the importance of honesty and recognising obsessive thoughts, encouraging listeners to confront their feelings rather than hide from them. Together, they explore how compulsions often mask deeper emotional conflicts, and how facing these can lead to a more honest and fulfilling life. With humour and candour, Jack and Paul remind us that it's not about fighting feelings but accepting them as part of our reality.
This episode is a poignant reminder that sobriety is not just about abstaining from substances, but also about achieving emotional clarity. If you're looking for an honest conversation on addiction recovery and emotional sobriety, this episode is worth a listen.
