Dennis T - Sober is Not Well - Meeting 252

May 31, 2024 • Justin B / Dennis T • Episode 252

Dennis T in Alaska is sober since July 29th, 2014. He came into the program after experiencing 40 years of pain and destruction and being unable to stop. The program has given him principles and tools to practice and live by on a daily basis. His experience showed him that only "not doing" left him sick and suffering, and the only path to freedom was by utterly abandoning himself to the God of his understanding, then as time passed everything began to change. He speaks to us today on this concept that sober is not well.

Reco12 is all about exploring the common threads of addiction and sharing tools and hope from those on a similar path. We gather from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and places to learn and support one another. Our speakers represent various fellowships, addictions, and afflictions, thus showing the common threads of recovery, no matter our addiction or affliction.
