S4; E2: Alcoholism, AA & The Big Book explained with "Mrs. Jones.‪"‬ Sober Gratitudes

    • Self-Improvement

Trigger warning: Sexual assault is briefly mentioned early in the interview. Please be advised. 
My friend, who was one of the recovered alcoholics who guided me through the 12 Steps & who we will call, "Mrs. Jones," shares about her experiences drinking, getting sober and today, a recovered alcoholic. She explains some misconceptions and some confusions about Alcoholism, AA and The Big Book through her own experience.  Her Cat , ‘Netty’ will often chime in during the interview. 😆
Some examples of what you will hear:
~Triggers - "dangerously underestimates what it means to have an alcoholic mind... " ~"Mrs. Jones." 
~What it means to be recovered (vs. recovering)
~If reason and logic keep her away from the first drink.
