Cannon Fodder to Sober Father: One Man' s Struggle with PTSD and Addiction

Jan 11, 2025 • 36min 39s

Episode description

The speaker, Fred, shares their journey as an alcoholic who found sobriety through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). They emphasize the importance of working the steps, having a sponsor, and being part of a supportive community for lasting recovery. The speaker also highlights the need to avoid creating misery and instead act responsibly in all aspects of life. Examples are given, such as charging one’s phone or taking care of others, to illustrate this point. Finally, they encourage newcomers to embrace their identity as alcoholics and find strength through AA’s principles and practices.
