TNA Superstar Mike Santana On Recovery And Sobriety

VIDEO – STEPS … INTO THE RING –

Aug. 29, 2024 – They tell you, ‘Listen, in a room of 20, 30 people, one person is going to stay sober.’ I’m sure you’ve heard that, and when I heard that the first time, I was like, ‘best believe I’m going to be that one person’.” Santana credits his daughter for being the “why” in his recovery journey, and 552 days sober, he believes that being conscious of the “just for today” mindset, as well as selfless giving through the program, will allow him to continue his journey successfully.

“For me, it’s continuing to give that gift away, maintaining my routines, and being conscious of that voice that’s so cunning and baffling, like they say. That voice is constantly going but being conscious of it and having that strength to say, ‘Yo, not today.’ I don’t overwhelm myself with the idea of being sober for the rest of my life because that’s just not feasible. It’s more of like, ‘Yo, just for today. Today, I’m not going to drink and do drugs.’ Then the next day and the next day. As you know, it builds up. You start to build time.”
