Now that we are sober and living that clean and sober lifestyle, we can actually be there...

2024-07-231h 30My Sober AddictionBack To Basics: Planning Life After Addiction and Staying SoberSomething on your mind? Send Matt a text here! After my last relapse in 2017, I was finally serious about sobriety and saw it as a way of life rather than just quitting heroin. Around that time, my dad told me that “people don’t plan to fail, they fail to plan.” I do not know where he got this old saying from but it is a good one. Moving forward in a life of sobriety can be scary, it’s not unlike death and rebirth. It can also be a very exciting time because it is an opportuni...

When we realized we had had enough of life in active addiction and wanted to get sober once and for all we were told to admit that we are powerless over addiction and needed help. I will take it a step further and say that we aren’t necessarily “powerless” as much as we were just never wired that way, we were never meant to do all the work ourselves, our job is to design this new life free from addiction and then press the start button. What I mean...

Continuing our talk about toxic positivity, we go a bit deeper into the subject. We do have traumas and other negative things from our past that can hang around our necks dragging us down not unlike how it was when we were in active addiction. I say “not unlike” because its not the same thing as active addiction but we do need to recover from things in our past so that we can move forward in recovery with as few relapse triggers as possible. I know, any addict who w...

Our time in Active Addiction was most likely the most negative time in our lives. What we have learned from this is that we can’t always turn a blind wye to our problems. Yes, I am a firm believer in “Where attention goes energy flows,” but that doesn’t mean to completely ignore past traumas or bad things that have happened in our lives. A lot of times we need to forgive ourselves so that we can truly get over it and move on. Transmutation is when we take s...

In the interest of preserving my sobriety, I steered clear of the pain meds and was reminded how important it is that we, addicts in recovery, stay healthy so that we aren’t faced with the possibility of needing pain medicine in the first place. Just sayin! Shingles is one of the most painful and miserable things I’ve ever had to go through…and I’ve detoxed off of heroin in jail, so…yeah… As stated...

It seems like every time I get on here saying I need to get more consistent with my uploads something always happens. It’s not unlike back during active addiction, something would always come up giving you a reason to put off getting sober until tomorrow. The difference is, though, during active addiction, an excuse to keep using drugs was always welcomed. This time, the lovely Kitty’ s mother passed away and we’ve been dealing with that. I have lost my stepmom and that has been extremely difficul...

The Kolbrin bible is very interesting for sure and I have to give credit, once again, to Jason Breshears of Archaix.com for introducing me to it. In doing that, he has also inspired another episode of My Sober Addiction. In this episode, we talk about how life in this reality is all about learning some very important lessons. Active Addiction taught us the ugly side of manifestation, it taught us that we create our own reality, for better or worse. In the grand scheme of things, ad...

In this episode of My Sober Addiction, we discuss the importance of breaking patterns in your life to create change. It goes a lot deeper, though, the ultimate goal is to throw Reality some curve balls. During active addiction, we became slaves to rituals, it wasn’t enough to use drugs, we had to make entire rituals out of it. While we are now living sober, we still do some things religiously, the same way every time. From the routes we drive to work to our routines at home...

One of the first episodes of My Sober Addiction was titled “From That to This at 1,000mph” which could imply that sobriety is itself a destination. It certainly could mean that but there is no destination. Every experience is another stop on a trip to…well, we don’t know, do we? We have come to the conclusion that it is never about the destination but the journey, and while that sounds like a corny slogan or a bumper sticker, it’s so very true. I say...

I’m not really sorry for that because well, we do, in fact, recover and then move on into our lives as sober individuals. So, what happens next? Well, that’s where this podcast comes in, assuming you are thriving in your sobriety. A lot of us had brushes with death…if we didn’t just straight up look it in the eye!

2024-03-0228 minMy Sober AddictionRecovery From Codependence with guest KittySomething on your mind? Send Matt a text here! During active addiction, most of us were in a series of codependent relationships, it seems it’s just part of being an addict. Both parties rely on the other to cover a shortcomings, usually its to do with the addiction itself. Either, they have money or are well connected or whatever. These relationships revolve around what they can do for each other rather than companionship. However, once we get help and recover and are transitioned into living sober, a lot of us long for a relationship, not just any...

In this, my 2nd come back episode, I am continuing our thoughts about “life after addiction” because, after all, we do have to move on from addiction and even get past recovering and begin moving on into living sober. By getting past active addiction, we have overcame an amazing obstacle, which is awesome, but at some point we’ve got to move on into what comes next. What a lot of us are left with, though, are the questions about spirituality. Particularly those of us who had...

Believe it or not, we can learn a lot about spirituality not only from addiction and recovery, but also from science, particularly quantum physics. It demonstrates to us that reality is malleable, we can bend it and shape it. Thoughts are energy and, at its core, so is matter. We are actually hard pressed to find any real physical matter anywhere..maybe that’s why less than 5% of the universe is made up of what we can see. I was never into science or math, I was alwa...
