Honestly, if you think you have a problem, you probably do, and that is completely okay.
Ever wondered if not getting caught means you're not in trouble? In this episode of Recovery Elevator, host Paul Churchill opens up about his own near-misses with DUIs and how they fed his denial about having a drinking problem. He reflects on a tragic accident that claimed a friend's life, serving as a stark reminder of the dangers of drinking and driving. But the spotlight of this episode is on Tiffany, who took her last drink on July 14, 2018.
Originally from Connecticut and now living in Maryland, Tiffany is a 35-year-old property manager and licensed captain who enjoys hiking and macramé. Her journey to sobriety wasn't straightforward. Despite the wake-up call from her friend's accident, Tiffany struggled to face her drinking problem until she found help through talk therapy and the Recovery Elevator community. Tiffany's story is a testament to the power of therapy in overcoming addiction.
She emphasizes the importance of confronting one's problems head-on and finding joy in recovery, whether it's through hobbies like kickball or simply being present in the moment. As Tiffany wisely notes, 'good days aren't defined by external experiences'. This episode serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is a journey worth taking. If you're struggling with addiction, remember that you're not alone.
