When Drinking Became an Escape: Peter’s Journey From Alcohol to Sobriety

Have you ever promised yourself you wouldn’t drink, only to find yourself buying alcohol again hours later?

Peter’s drinking eventually reached the point where a litre of gin wasn’t a problem. He would wake up determined to stop, only to find himself back at the supermarket buying more by the afternoon.

In this episode of One For The Road with Sober Dave, Peter shares how growing up around alcoholism, heroin addiction and chaos shaped his life, how his own drinking became an escape, and what finally happened when he decided enough was enough.

This is a powerful conversation about alcohol addiction, childhood trauma, quitting drinking, recovery and rebuilding your life in sobriety.
