KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Sobriety is a day-to-day journey that requires managing thoughts and emotions in real-time.
• Understanding the underlying reasons for addiction and cravings can help overcome them.
• Focusing on the freedom and benefits of sobriety rather than feeling like one is missing out can shift the mindset.
• Childhood experiences and trauma can contribute to addictive behaviors and the need for escapism.
• Finding a creative outlet or engaging in a challenging activity can provide purpose and help in recovery.

BEST MOMENTS

• "I want to get fucked up and start acting like a complete knob."
• "Once you understand this, you can stop yourself from pressing the 'Fuck you' button and going for the drink or the drugs."
• "You're free from it. You're not missing it."
• "The better you treat yourself, the better you're going to treat everyone else."
• "When you start becoming confident in yourself and giving yourself self-love, they'll want to shag you anyway."
