Dr. Tabatha Barber shares her alcoholism and recovery through Alcoholics Anonymous, crediting belief in God and functional medicine. She lost weight, cleared brain fog, gained energy, and rebuilt her marriage by committing to sobriety and community.
It was fear of what will people think of me if I express this part of me I didn't stay away from alcohol until I truly faced that and until I spoke my truth and I looked in the mirror and was like I am an alcoholic I'm an alcoholic and I need to correct this and get rid of alcohol AA was very powerful for me I know it's not for everybody there are multiple recovery programs but at the root of AA is a higher power and for me that higher power is God and when I gave my will and surrendered and accepted who I was and accepted that part of me and dove into the recovery world and committed myself to that lifestyle connected with people out in the recovery community did open talks told my story alongside the functional medicine health journey and healing my guts in my health and my cells light weight came off brain fog lifted I enjoyed being around my kids I had energy to go do things my marriage flourished yeah.
