I think, because the environment of the-step community feels so safe to me is the reason I haven't relapsed.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a tumultuous past into a story of healing and hope? DJ Burr, a licensed psychotherapist specializing in sexual addiction and codependency recovery, shares his compelling journey on the Atheists in Recovery podcast. From a tangled and troubled childhood to facing fears about spirituality, DJ opens up about the struggles that shaped his life and led him to addiction.
He candidly discusses his belief that God wouldn’t show up for him, which deeply affected his mental health. DJ’s turning point came when he joined a 12-step program. He realized that his husband wasn’t the problem—he was. This revelation set him on a path to recovery, where he discovered the serene and supportive environment of 12-step meetings. DJ highlights how this community, along with therapy, played a crucial role in developing healthy coping mechanisms and preventing relapse.
In this episode, DJ emphasizes the power of support systems and community in recovery. He talks about how being surrounded by people who understood his struggles made him feel less alone. His story is not just about overcoming addiction; it’s about finding a new purpose and becoming a healer himself. For anyone grappling with similar issues, DJ’s story offers a beacon of hope.
It’s a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of community and self-awareness. Tune in to hear DJ Burr’s inspiring journey and discover how he turned his life around through sex and love addiction recovery.
