Making a Recovery from Alcohol Addiction: Anne and Jodie’s story | Recovery Stories

Together, they are able to have a frank conversation about how alcohol addiction affects not only the person suffering from the disease but also those around them. Anne also delves into her experiences in rehab for alcoholism and her relationships have changed now she has sought support for alcohol addiction recovery.

Well done anne.

Thanks, these are some good reminders, there’s no question that increasing your mental clarity and boosting your drive, comes with quitting. Yes, there are many ways to kick the habit, Steffon Barkload's Quit Drinking Forever is what worked for me, best shortcut I go’ogled that took days without withdrawal.

Did you ever take any "shortcuts" when you were drinking? I didn't think so.
