My Sober Addiction
This show is for drug addicts in recovery BY a heroin addict in recovery. Living with active addiction is hell and getting sober is an incredible accomplishment. However, it doesn’t end there; we must then maintain our sobriety and assimilate into society as normal, functioning, productive people…all while living sober dealing with triggers and cravings. Of course, addiction recovery does get easier, especially with a community of support. We can only go up from here, sobriety is an opportunity to shine and have an amazing, sober life, so let’s do it!

In this episode of My Sober Addiction, I want to encourage you to tell your recovery story with more encouragement in it. Meaning, when you tell your story of recovery, don't just talk about your addiction, the withdrawal symptoms, the relapses and all the things you had to do to overcome addiction and come out on the other side living a sober lifestyle. Of course, all those things are extremely important but what is also important is telling how you were able to recovery those damaged relationships with loved ones. In a lot of cases, that usually happens quicker and much easier than most people think.
Last week, I did not release a podcast episode because I was on vacation with my family. I reflected on how they have accepted me back into the family unit and how I was able to rebuild trust a lot faster than I ever would’ve expected. Sure, they were completely fed up with me and my addiction and relapses, and certainly didn’t want me bringing any of the drama that comes with someone in active addiction but once I did recover once and for all, they allowed me back in. All they ever wanted from me was to see me living a happy, healthy, sober lifestyle in recovery.
