I hope that Narcan is like over the counter. I really hope that like, especially parents, because, like parents, especially like you know, I talked about in a video The Other Day, like my parents, like my dad was a cop. You know what I mean, because I hear all the time: well, Narcan's great, but I'll never need it. Like you do like, how the fuck can you say that you know, like I really like and I hope they don't.
Meet Nate, a man who has turned his tumultuous journey through addiction into a mission to save lives. In this episode of 'The Addictive Pod', Nate opens up about his eight-year struggle with opiates, which saw him spiral into drug dealing and multiple overdoses. Despite numerous relapses, he found a lifeline in the twelve-step program, ultimately shedding his desire to use drugs.
Now, Nate is on the front lines of the opioid epidemic, distributing Narcan and providing training to those in need across Southern California. His efforts have already saved over a hundred lives. But Nate isn't stopping there; he's advocating for Narcan to be as accessible as a seatbelt, believing everyone should have it on hand, especially parents. This episode is more than just a story of recovery; it's a call to action.
Nate's dedication to his Narcan project is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible and that we can all play a part in fighting this crisis. Whether you're struggling with addiction or looking to support someone who is, Nate's story offers hope and practical advice for making a real difference.
