Five trips to detox, two inpatient rehabs, two outpatient programs, and getting fired from her dream job as a journalist for an alternative newspaper didn't ultimately keep Erica C. Barnett from drinking again.
She didn't experience a "rock bottom" moment that kept her from relapsing, a point of no return like the kind portrayed in movies and novels. It wasn't until she lost almost everyone and everything she cared about that she was finally able to stop.
Sober now for over five years, Erica joins Ronit to talk about her new memoir Quitter: A Memoir of Drinking, Relapse, and Recovery, share what she's learned about addiction, triggers, and twelve-step programs, and why she, like so many who have faced substance abuse, will always need to actively do the work of recovery.
