The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy · The Comeback with Rachel Forde · 14 Jun 2026 podcast

Since the January, this was the March.

So I was like a five-year-old at the end of their bed.

And at the time, I remember cursing them out of it in my head, being like, they don't fucking trust me as far as they control me.

I have to sleep at an air mattress at the end of my mother and father's bed.

32 years of age.

But that was the best thing that they'd done for me.

I linked in with Coolmine above in the Glen.

And I started going to AA, NA, CA, smart meetings.

They had hair and now groups in the hub and they saved me.

They saved me.

Everybody who attended those meetings

were at a very similar point in their lives to what I was.

You know, you didn't have to be sober to attend those meetings.

And they just kind of met us where we were.

They started talking about residential treatment.

I was like, but sure, I'm clean.

I wasn't clean.

I was taking what the doctors had weaned me down to.

I was sticking to my prescription, but how long would that have lasted?
