From Morning Vodka to Sobriety: Alex Clapp’s Recovery Story
About this episode
When does drinking cross the line from having fun to something you can no longer control?
Alex Clapp shares his journey from teenage drinking and blackouts to alcohol dependency, three trips to rehab, drinking three bottles of wine a night and eventually starting his mornings with vodka.
After years of using alcohol to numb fear and difficult emotions, a conversation with his 17-year-old son became a turning point.
Alex and Sober Dave talk honestly about alcohol addiction, rehab, getting sober, cravings, vulnerability and what it takes to build a life in recovery.
