Matthew M. - AA Speaker - "Peace and Happiness in Recovery, no matter what"

Matthew M. has a powerful story.. Great speaker, and some good jokes and funny stories along the way! For anyone questioning AA success rate or thinks the program doesn't work, listen to this the whole way through! AA might not be for everyone, but it worked for me, and Matthew.
Namaste, friends :)

[@icp2332]

I have 13 years sober. Haven't been to a meeting and probably 5 years. I'm usually not to emotional a guy, this speaker Matthew literally made me tear up probably 8 times as I listened to this. Thank you to the speaker and for having this posted for a dry drunk to listen too in his time of need.

[@swilliam00]

icp2332 go to a meeting dude! It’s good for the soul.

[@nellyjane21]

Welcome back to the real life of sobriety !

[@Mandalas12]

Perhaps you could do the steps with a BB sponsor and find support in meetings on zoom 🙏🙏🏽 ?

[@BirdShutterbug]

At 12 years of sobriety, I left meetings and went five years without attending a meeting. I didn't drink but I pretty much went nuts though. I was dry as a bone. I'm grateful that I had a circumstance occur that got me back to meetings again. I hope that you got back to meetings and started working the steps with a sponsor.

Hell of a message

[@nellyjane21]

Really relate to dead feeling not relating to others

[@That1grI]

Me too. Our Big book on page 23 says the main problem of the alcoholic centers in his mind rather then “his” body. In my experience it had to do with being obsessed what other people thought about me. In recovery they call it self-centered fear. The rabbit hole goes as deep as we allow in recovery.
