I felt like the devil part of me was in control and I was on autopilot, like I was just here and she was making those decisions.
Ever wondered how a simple prescription can turn your life upside down? In this eye-opening episode of 'Devil's Guide to Sobriety', host Jessica Everitt chats with content marketer and copywriter Jessica Bruno about her unexpected descent into opioid addiction. It all started with pain management for a chronic illness, but things quickly spiraled out of control. Bruno found herself relying on these medications not just for physical relief, but to numb the emotional turmoil she faced.
This numbing effect, however, came at a cost—disconnecting her from herself and her relationships. Jessica Bruno opens up about the struggles and the harsh realities of living with addiction. She shares how she used opioids as a crutch to get through life's challenges, only to realize that it was robbing her of genuine human connection and self-awareness. Through their candid conversation, both Jessicas explore the coping mechanisms they adopted and the pivotal role of sobriety in reclaiming their lives.
This episode isn't just about the dark side of addiction; it's also about hope and recovery. The two discuss the importance of having a strong support network, setting boundaries, and being transparent with healthcare providers. It's a raw and relatable discussion for anyone who has faced similar struggles or knows someone who has. So, if you're looking for an honest take on the complexities of addiction and the journey to sobriety, this episode is a must-listen.
Jessica Bruno's story serves as a powerful reminder that while the road to recovery is tough, it's also filled with opportunities for genuine connection and self-discovery.
