I drank the way I was because I was alcoholic. And those of you that come from some spiritual traditions: we don't sin because we're sinners. We sin because we were born into sin.
Ever wondered what it's like to hit rock bottom and claw your way back to sanity? In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', we hear the gripping tale of a man whose battle with alcoholism landed him in a nationally renowned hospital. The episode, titled 'People feared for my sanity', isn't just about the struggle; it's about the turning points that lead to recovery.
Our guest takes us through his experience with the controversial belladonna treatment, shedding light on its effectiveness and the broader understanding of alcoholism as an illness rather than a moral failing. A compassionate doctor plays a pivotal role, explaining the nature of the illness and igniting a spark of hope in our guest's heart. This episode dives deep into the spiritual aspects of addiction and recovery, offering listeners valuable insights on self-forgiveness and the path to healing.
Whether you're struggling yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is a powerful reminder that recovery is within reach, and self-redemption is a crucial step on that journey.
