When we feel hopeless, we suffer physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. While many alcoholics and addicts are familiar with hopelessness in active addiction, it can be confusing and even surprising experiencing it in sobriety.
But how do we find hope amidst the hopelessness? Is there a way to find meaning in the suffering?
In this week's Recovery Coaching, we discussed this important issue. Finding recovery doesn't necessarily mean we live on a permanent pink cloud, but it also doesn't mean when we have to live in a state of hopelessness. Together, we can find a middle ground.
Have you felt hopeless in recovery? What steps did you take to get out of it? Hit the reply button and let me know.

️How I Cope with Zach Cohen
Lead singer of The Redrum Society, Zack Cohen, can trace the roots of his addiction back to when he started drinking at only eight years old.
This would be a foreshadowing of the regular drug use that would continue to progress later in life. After moving to California in his twenties, chasing the next high became his top priority.
