I wrote.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've been sober for eleven years in Alcoholics Anonymous-and I was married for that entire time. This book begins the week I moved out of the home I'd shared with my wife and kids for seven years, just two blocks away, starting over at forty. I was still going to AA meetings, still showing up as a father, still staying sober-but now doing it all alone for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you'll read here is my diary from those first raw weeks of separation: yoga classes, AA meetings, late-night reflections, awkward dating attempts, and quiet nights in my new house learning how to sleep again. It's not just a story about divorce-it's about staying grounded when everything you thought was permanent disappears.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI write openly about desire, faith, loneliness, and the strange peace that comes from letting go. You'll find reflections on what it means to love without attachment, to grieve with grace, and to find intimacy again after years of emotional distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis isn't a \"how-to\" guide-it's an unfiltered account of recovery in real life: the daily practice of staying sober not just from alcohol, but from control, fantasy, and digital illusions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever faced heartbreak, spiritual awakening, or the challenge of starting over, \u003ci\u003eSober Through Separation\u003c\/i\u003e will meet you there-with honesty, humility, and hope that love and peace can return, one day at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jerry Banfield\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798272993403\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 110\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.23d","brand":"Jerry Banfield","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874509533439,"sku":"9798272993403","price":12.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sober-through-separation-jerry-banfield-9798272993403","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
