Bonus Drop: Dr. John Outlines the "ISM" vs. "WASM"

Dr. John relates the "ISM" of alcoholism to the human condition, a yearning to fill the void, a yearning for wholeness and connectedness. With Mike & Glenn, he discusses the viewpoint that we don’t need AA to tell us that drinking makes life s*&% or that if you don’t drink your life will be better. What we need AA for is that even when we don’t drink and things get better, even when we clean up our act, we still have a hole in our soul, still yearn, still hunger. If alcohol is the only thing that fills that void, it’s easy to relapse. Which makes working the program, going to meetings and staying connected important on the path to recovery.If you know someone who needs to hear this episode, share it with them!For more about this podcast:Visit Sober.Coffee website: https://www.sober.coffeeRecorded at Audiohive Podcasting: https://www.audiohivepodcasting.comIn collaboration with Care Addiction Center: https://www.careaddiction.com
