I'm at a place in my life where I'm talking to people and hopefully being helpful in a way in terms of inspiring hope and recovery.
What happens when the drummer of one of the world's biggest bands faces a life-altering crisis? In this episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, host Duane Osterlind sits down with Ryan Dusick, the founding drummer of Maroon 5, to explore his profound journey through addiction and recovery. Ryan opens up about the highs of his musical career and the devastating low of a chronic injury that derailed everything.
Faced with physical and emotional pain, he turned to alcohol and drugs as a coping mechanism. But that's not where his story ends. Ryan's journey took a turn towards recovery, leading him to become an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and a passionate mental health advocate. He shares candidly about his struggles with self-loathing, the humbling moments that marked his last months of addiction, and the pivotal role of therapy and community in his recovery process.
His memoir, 'Harder to Breathe', chronicles his incredible transformation from rock star to recovery warrior. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and hope in their own battles with addiction.
