Confronting raw emotions without numbing agents is one of the toughest challenges in recovery. We explore how anger manifests in sobriety and practical ways to process difficult feelings when you can no longer escape through substances.

• Brandon shares his experience at six months sober, describing the challenge of facing life's frustrations without any escape
• Discussing how alcohol numbs negative emotions and the resulting emotional intensity when that coping mechanism is removed
• Exploring the connection between resentments and our own character flaws
• Looking at how unprocessed anger affects family relationships and the importance of open communication at home
• Recognizing that peace and serenity, not just abstinence from alcohol, should be the goal of recovery
• Learning practical techniques for dealing with anger: pausing, identifying triggers, talking to others, and finding healthy outlets
• Understanding that sobriety is about breaking patterns and learning new responses to old triggers

When harboring resentments, we shut ourselves off from the sunlight of the spirit. To live in recovery, we must be free of anger - it's poison for the alcoholic.
