I was ready to do it differently, regardless of what consequences were going to come my way.
Growing up in a large Irish family where alcohol was always within reach, TJ began drinking at just 13 years old. It started as a way to manage his social anxiety and feelings of not measuring up. His journey to sobriety wasn't straightforward; he faced several failed attempts at recovery, each one motivated by a desire to please others rather than himself. But everything changed when TJ found Alcoholics Anonymous and the online AA group, the 4th Dimensioners.
Today, with nearly two years of continuous sobriety, TJ is a dedicated member of his home group. In this episode, TJ opens up to Jessica M and Mark about his path to recovery. He talks about the transformative power of self-talk, self-acceptance, and the vital role of service and fellowship in his journey. By working the steps and connecting with a higher power, TJ has not only found sobriety but also joy in being present for his family and community.
Tune in to hear TJ's candid story and learn how trudging the road of happy destiny with the 4th Dimensioners has reshaped his life.
