You Can’t Take Addiction On Vacation

Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here! 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.  Please share this podcast and also give me a rating and review wherever you listen to audio podcasts.. Much love and respect!Support the showVisit the MSA website at https://MySoberAddiction.comJoin the My Sober Addiction Telegram grouphttps://t.me/MySoberAddictionAlso, check out the Fasting For Change Telegram groupHttps://t.me/FastingForChangeFollow me on X https://x.com/@MattStevensMSACheck out my YouTube channel https://youtube.com/MattStevensMSAJoin the WhatsApp group! https://chat.whatsapp.com/GqNlxLA7WPVGHnZjzgGjTAIf you like the music you can check out Fixate on BandCamp here at: fixatelex.bandcamp.com
