Ep 237EP 128: Ashleybear9’s Recovery Story

E

King 13 sits down with Ashleybear9. In this episode they explore how being taught that being sensitive was a form of weakness and that negative emotions were seen as a choice. They discuss how Ashley’s desire to succeed, help others and outwardly present that she had everything together was a tireless and exhausting journey where her only escape was found in drinking. It became her only tool to cope while maintaining a positive “brand” until eventually it was not enough. King 13 and Ashley dive into the symbolism of birds, building back better, the value of presence and closing mental “bulkheads”, and how joy and deeper human experiences can be found in sharing and being vulnerable. Various events eventually acted like a giant highlighter, not creating a problem with alcohol but rather highlighting a dangerous relationship that already existed. Ashley’s ability to be intuitive, her drive to be better, cope healthily and manage some very difficult life events led her on the eventual path of sobriety. Truly a better path, a path of growth and love. Love for herself, for others and for life. Thank You Ashleybear9 for joining Sobertown and sharing your amazing Journey!! We appreciate your time here and all you do in the IAS community! You are a dedicated and selfless Sober Warrior!! BOOOOOM!! No Sippy No Slippy. Not Another Drop No matter What.

Ep 225EP 116: Dopamine Nation - Author Dr Anna Lembke

E

King13 Interviews Dr Anna Lembke and her book "Dopamine Nation" Anna Lembke is an American psychiatrist who is Chief of the Stanford Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis Clinic at Stanford University. She is a specialist in the opioid epidemic in the United States, and the author of Drug Dealer, MD, How Doctors Were Duped, Patients Got Hooked, and Why It’s So Hard to Stop. Her new book, a New York Times bestseller, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence, was released in August 2021. Lembke appeared in the 2020 Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma. This book is about pleasure. It’s also about pain. Most important, it’s about how to find the delicate balance between the two, and why now more than ever finding balance is essential. We’re living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, sexting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, tweeting… The increased numbers, variety, and potency is staggering. The smartphone is the modern-day hypodermic needle, delivering digital dopamine 24/7 for a wired generation. As such we’ve all become vulnerable to compulsive overconsumption. In Dopamine Nation, Dr. Anna Lembke, psychiatrist and author, explores the exciting new scientific discoveries that explain why the relentless pursuit of pleasure leads to pain…and what to do about it. Condensing complex neuroscience into easy-to-understand metaphors, Lembke illustrates how finding contentment and connectedness means keeping dopamine in check. The lived experiences of her patients are the gripping fabric of her narrative. Their riveting stories of suffering and redemption give us all hope for managing our consumption and transforming our lives. In essence, Dopamine Nation shows that the secret to finding balance is combining the science of desire with the wisdom of recovery.Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence No Sippy No Slippy.

Harvey from the UK joins Imust to discuss his battles with a heavy career, coupled with heavy drinking and coming to the realisation that stopping drinking has to be done for ourselves and nobody else. I just have to Add that I absolutely love Harvey902's passion for sobriety!! Harvey902! Thank You!!!!!!! Also I'm adding his post from the "i am sober" app dated Aug 10, 2021. It's Absolutely Fantastic!! "I passed a year a week ago and have been thinking about what this means to me. I've concluded the easiest way to convey my life changes without alcohol is to list some of the things I have done in the past year that simply would not have occurred with drink. These are pretty much in order." "*Saved my relationship,*Started a successful business *Cleared most of my debt - the rest is structured and manageable, *Ripped up the patio decking myself and laid a patio, *Built a brick BBQ (I have never picked up a brick in my life), *Turned a spare room into a functional office space that now finances the house, *Converting the outhouse into a professional office, *Regained the trust of my extended family, *Vastly improved relationship with my own family, *Started Judo, having never practiced a martial art in my life. My goal is black belt in 4 years, *Lost 9 pounds of belly fat, *Helped at least one very good friend quit alcohol, For good. I will support them in perpetuity, *Celebrated a birthday, Christmas, New Year and this weekend a stag do without the slightest fear or paranoia the following day." "To be fair to alcohol, below is a list of things I have missed about drink and the benefits it brought me over the years: * , * , * , * , * , * , * , * , * . Peace and respect to you all" No Sippy No Slippy. Not Another Drop No matter What. Remember to Pour The Poison Down The Sink!! Sobertownpodcast.com
