The Different Types Of Drinkers

The Sober Fix

In this episode, I talk about the different types of drinkers. I share some personal experiences with alcoholism and what happens to me after the first drink. I talk about my journey from a somewhat moderate drinker to the real alcoholic. At some point I crossed a line to where I had little control over my drinking, once I would start. I talk about going to a party and having one beer and then coming to as I was being released from jail. I always tried to get sober on my own and I always ended up with the same results. Eventually, I had to surrender to my addiction and get the help that I desperately needed. Whatever you think life without alcohol and drugs will look like, I guarantee you it will be better.
