A man's story of his struggle with alcoholism. After reaching out to a friend for help he finds answers to questions he never knew he had in rehab.

Today’s episode featured Hamish Niven. He is a mentor and guide for helping others overcome addiction and the host of the podcast The Crucible - Conversations for the curious. Are you curious about what normal drinking look like?  I invite you to visit ⁠friendordepend.com⁠. There you’ll find a free 6 question self assessment that allows you to examine your relationship with alcohol with fresh eyes and without judgement. It’s not created to shame, embarrass or judge; instead, is there to raise awareness of what we often don’t spot in our busy lives. If you would like to contact Hamish you can on his website ⁠hamishniven.com⁠.
