Series 2, Episode ^: In this episode we begin to look at “There Is a Solution.” Woo hoo! There totally is a solution... More than one solution and even in this solution there’s more than one way. I mean... yay! I think one of the most important take-aways from this episode is the reframe of the first five steps:
1. I am powerless over alcohol. When I take a drink I am unable to stop. Seems like these days it’s rarely if ever fun. Now it only seems to make my life worse. I don’t want to do it anymore.
2. I’m going to an AA meeting. I believe I can stop drinking, but I think it will be easier with help. So, I’ll ask for some help there.
3. AA seems okay. Most people seem nice enough. There’s laughter and warmth. No one asked for money or yelled at me. Some people gave me some tips and tricks to make life easier. I’m choosing to trust them because they seem sober and generally happy. I think I’ll take their suggestions and see how it goes.
Keep listening for the rest! And lemme know what you think by email or in the comments.
