The Delusion That We Are Like Others, Must Be Smashed (The Daily Trudge)
from RAW Recovery Podcast · host trudgingtogether
The Delusion That We Are Like Others, Must Be Smashed Today we’re talking about “The Delusion That We Are Like Others Must Be Smashed,” using the More About Alcoholism chapter from the Big Book. This is the idea that keeps people stuck the longest—the belief that somehow, someday, we’ll be able to control and enjoy our drinking. The Big Book is clear: that thinking is the problem. It’s not about how much we know, how many times we’ve tried, or what we tell ourselves—it’s about the pattern. Going back, again and again, despite the consequences. That’s the delusion. And until it’s seen clearly for what it is, nothing really changes. This is about facing that truth head-on—so something different can finally begin. Trudging Together. No one trudges alone. 🙏 🔔 Subscribe for more Daily Sobriety Motivation: https://www.youtube.com/@thedailytrudge3367 #addiction #recovery #mentalhealth #addictionrecovery #sobriety #sober #love #soberlife #recoveryispossible #mentalhealthawareness #depression #alcoholism #addictionawareness #soberliving #drugaddiction #wedorecover #anxiety #onedayatatime #soberaf #addict #drugs #alcoholicsanonymous #rehab #selfcare #motivation #healing #steps #alcoholfree #selflove #addictiontreatment
