Sober Authenticity: Defining Self After Addiction

Sober Authenticity: Defining Self After Addiction

Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2117666/fan_mail/new]  In this episode of My Sober Addiction, we continue our talk about authenticity. After active addiction, we begin living sober but are faced with the question of, “Who am I now?” You know you can’t continue to be the same person you were during active addiction so how do you reinvent yourself into a new version of you and remain authentic and true to yourself? Is this a version of self that you can sustain? It can definitely cause anxiety since the person you were for so many years during active addiction is no longer who (or what) you are now. It’s also exciting because the possibilities are truly limitless. Be the type of person you’ve always admired.   Please rate and review this podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.

Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2117666/fan_mail/new]  In this episode of My Sober Addiction, we have another one of our “Isn’t It Nice” installments. Now that we are free from active addiction and living sober we can be there for our loved ones when they need us. There was a time when they absolutely could not count on us to be there. Also, we go into whether or not relapse is an option and how the fear of detox can be a real deterrent that keeps us sober.   Please share this podcast with someone and give me a rating and review wherever you listen to podcasts.

Addiction Taught Me To Find & Appreciate Beauty In Everything

Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2117666/fan_mail/new]  In this episode of My Sober Addiction, we delve into the Hermetic Law of Polarity and how we can learn and grow from any situation. Once you’ve gotten past active addiction and living sober, life gets good again. We can easily see the contrast in how bad and good things can be. When we look at the world around us and see all the negativity, we can do that knowing that it MUST mean that there is something that is equally as positive. Like the Yin and the Yang, you can’t have good without bad. So, bad things mean there must be something equally as good. As an addict in recovery, we can certainly appreciate that probably more than most.

Thinking About Thinking: Avoiding Self Sabotage with Clive and Dom

Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2117666/fan_mail/new]  We’re back! After a very long hiatus, My Sober Addiction is back. Clive, Dom and Matt are back for a chat about thinking. Why is it that we always seem to think ourselves into oblivion? Sometimes it is best to step away from the brain and take a breath. One thing we’ve learned is that the human brain is going to do what it does best, which is think and overthink and then think some more. It’s overload! It just exacerbates the problem when we stick our faces in our screens and absorb all that negativity and dopamine hits that only social media can provide most of our waking hours. Meditation is a key part to getting control of your mind. Please understand that “Brain” and “Mind” aren’t the same thing.   Much love and respect!

What Would Your Future Self Thank You For? With Clive and Dom

Something on your mind? Send Matt a text here! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2117666/fan_mail/new]  In this episode of My Sober Addiction, Clive and Dom are back for another lively chat. With Clive’s deep research and Dom’s quick wit, there is never a dull moment. So, isn’t it nice that, now that we are sober a free from addiction, we can be there for the people in our lives? Usually these are people are the ones who were there for us when we were battling active addiction and support our recovery now that we are living a sober lifestyle. It just feels good to be able to help people when they call rather than making excuses for why we can’t make it. The truth. Is, we couldn’t because addiction had us constantly chasing drugs, but of course we never would admit it at that time.  We finish up by discussing how important it is to things today that our future selves would thank us for. It started with going through withdrawals and resisting relapse and now it is building a life. It’s not always easy but will your future self thank you for doing it? If so, then do it!
