Welcome to today's episode of Sober Gay Podcast where we dive deep into the stories of individuals who have overcome challenges and embraced change through sobriety. Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Lee, a resident of Liverpool, who has been on a remarkable journey of sobriety.
After experiencing periods of sobriety in 2019, Lee made the courageous decision to commit to a life free from alcohol over a year ago. This decision was not only influenced by his own experiences but also by the supportive environment created by his husband, who is also alcohol-free.
Lee's journey to sobriety was not without its challenges. He found himself grappling with past traumas and feelings of shame, which were exacerbated by occasional blackouts. However, Lee's determination to live a healthier and happier life.
One of the key factors in Lee's journey was his willingness to confront and address the childhood trauma of having a parent who struggled with alcohol addiction. He believes that it's crucial to have open conversations about these issues, especially within the queer community.
Today, Lee is thriving in his new sober life, and he is committed to maintaining this lifestyle for the long run. His story serves as an inspiration to others who may be facing similar challenges, and it highlights the importance of seeking support and embracing change.
