Summary
Eric returns to share an update on his sobriety journey after nearly two decades of daily drinking. From 2008 to 2021, alcohol was part of his everyday life. What started as normal slowly turned into something much more serious—leading to severe withdrawal, hallucinations, and even seizures when he tried to stop. In this episode, Eric opens up about what it was really like living in that cycle, the denial that kept him stuck, and the moment everything changed. We talk about the dangers of alcohol withdrawal, why asking for help can save your life, and what it takes to rebuild after years of drinking. Now approaching 5 years sober, Eric shares what life looks like today, how he handles cravings, and why sobriety has given him something alcohol never could. If you’re questioning your drinking, stuck in the cycle, or wondering if change is possible—this conversation will hit home.
