I hid everything and I masked my life quite well because I went to work on time. I came home, I sat, I ate my meals, I spoke to the family and I did consume alcohol, but I always hid the amounts so that nobody knew the exact amounts I was drinking and I had a garage where I hid my drugs.
Deon's journey from addiction to recovery is a powerful testament to the transformative power of faith and family. In this episode of 'A2D - From Addict to Disciple', Deon opens up about the pressures he faced after gaining financial stability post-addiction and how he navigated those challenges. He shares candid memories that still linger and discusses the strategies he employs to avoid triggers and stay committed to his recovery.
The conversation is a heartfelt dedication to the late Rod Shiers, a pastor and friend who was known for his unwavering love for those often overlooked by society. Deon's honesty about concealing his addiction from loved ones and the pivotal role of counseling and mentorship in his healing process provides both inspiration and practical advice. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Deon's story offers a beacon of hope and a clear roadmap for recovery.
Tune in to hear how faith, family, and a supportive community can pave the way to a new life.
