How Do You Cope?
is a significant production.
See you next time.
Hello everyone, it's John here, just letting you know that I have written a book.
It's called Thirst, 12 Drinks That Changed My Life, and it's out now.
In many episodes of How Do You Cope, you'll have heard me talk about my relationship with alcohol, and in writing Thirst, I wanted to explore what alcohol means.
Why did it mean more to me than other people?
Why did it mean some things felt better, and why did it mean so many things went wrong?
I also talk about lots of other things you'll have heard me and my guests discuss on How Do You Cope?
Meditation, physical pain, gratitude, trauma, and therapy.
There's even a chapter about my bum and its relationship with Buddhism.
So if that piques your interest, Thirst is out now, and the audiobook, read by me, is available wherever you get audiobooks from.
Welcome to the Gratitude List and I'm delighted to say that Scout Zofia Bolton is still with me.
She's given us some extra time to discuss the things that they're grateful for and we didn't talk a huge amount actually about recovery, alcohol recovery in the main episode.
We sort of focused more on mental health and prison and creativity
But gratitude is increasingly quite a big part of the 12-step recovery world.
Has it played a part in the last two and a half years of your sobriety?
We didn't talk about your kids on the main episode.
So how old were they when you went to prison?
And how was that experience for them, if it's possible to sort of describe that experience?
