When you stop drinking and drugging, like your life gets worse on the inside, I go what?
Ever wondered how someone turns their life around after years of addiction? Brad Sullivan's story on 'Sober Shares' might just be the inspiration you need. Growing up in Buffalo, New York, Brad faced bullying and fear that drove him to drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism. His athletic talent earned him a football scholarship, but college pressures only deepened his substance abuse.
What started as a way to escape daily stress spiraled into a destructive path of addiction and crime. Brad's turning point came after multiple stints in addiction treatment centers and a crucial intervention by his family and friends. Moving to Texas for long-term treatment, Brad spent nearly 11 months rebuilding his life. It was here that he found a fresh start, embracing sobriety with the support of Alcoholics Anonymous.
He highlights the importance of honesty and accountability, stressing that these principles were vital in his journey to stay sober. Faith and spirituality also played significant roles in Brad's recovery. He talks about the power of staying present and appreciating the small victories in life. His story is a powerful reminder of how community support and personal responsibility can transform lives.
If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, Brad's journey offers hope and practical insights into the recovery process. Tune in to 'Sober Shares' for this compelling conversation that underscores the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of recovery.
