Sanjay has come back on the show after another 7 years of sobriety and talks about his original journey out of uncontrolled drinking, how he found Alcoholics Anonymous and how AA has changed his life.Sanjay discusses the transformation that he went through and how it fundamentally changed the way he thinks about himself and others. Gone is his low self-esteem, ego and fear that drove his existence during the drinking, replaced with hope and confidence of a future without the craving for alcohol. Sanjay has been sober and in AA now for over 19 years.If you would like to find out a bit more about alcoholism for yourself or a friend, then you can give Alcoholics Anonymous a call on 1300 222 222 or check out their website www.aa.org.au.If someone else's drinking is causing you a problem, then you can phone the Al-Anon Family Groups helpline on 1300 252 666 or go online at al-anon.org.au for more information.Sanjay’s previous podcast from 2017: https://www.3cr.org.au/livingfree/episode-201709071300/alcoholics-anonymous-christie-sanjayYou can show your support to the Living Free show and keep us on air by:subscribing to 3CR https://www.3cr.org.au/subscribeand/or donating to 3CR https://www.3cr.org.au/donateMusic played in this episode was provided by the artists, via Australian Music Radio Airplay Project (https://amrap.org.au/):@16:33 Telita Lee & The Huskies - When I Sing (https://amrap.org.au/release/telita-lee-the-huskies-when-i-sing)@32:22 Karen Law - Lifeline (https://amrap.org.au/track/karen-law-lifeline-lifeline)@52:13 boi&eSKae - Feel It In My Bones (https://amrap.org.au/track/boieskae-feel-it-in-my-bones-feel-it-in-my-bones)
