For Ben, the news story became a trigger. He found himself questioning his own decaying predicament, clouded with alcohol. The nostalgia, combined with a longing for control over his life, led him towards the path of sobriety.

With limited support resources available nearby, Ben turned online to the Stepping Into Action program from hofmanhollis.com. He pledged to follow the program and resolve his gnawing concern. As John Hollis emphasizes, 'The first step to any kind of transformation is admitting there's a problem.'

Experts are divided about the influence of such trigger moments and distant past connections in addiction recovery. Some believe these can act as powerful catalysts for positive change, while others raise a skeptical eyebrow, pointing to the possibility of displaced triggers leading to other harmful habits.

Yet, for Ben, the strain of conflicting opinions didn't matter. He simply knew he'd rather listen to the clucking of chickens than the insidious whispers of another shot of whiskey. In the relaxed comfort of his home in Agner, he began his recovery, proving that help can be just a cluck away if one is open to it.
