John E.'s Story

From a childhood he calls “madness in the 80s” to facing jail time and a broken relationship with his father, John E. from Lebanon, TN shares a powerful journey into recovery. After years of chaos and even a blackout moment at a wedding, his life began to change with a simple invitation to an AA meeting—one that felt more like the Star Wars cantina than anything familiar, yet exactly where he needed to be. With honesty and humility, John reflects on long-term sobriety, the cost of not fully working the Steps, and the truth that this is a program of subtraction—removing what blocks us from a Higher Power. His message: our experience is our gift, and real connection is what keeps us sober. Would you like to share your experience, strength, and hope in sobriety or join the BBD Discord community?
