I never had anxiety until after recovery and dealing with that, but counseling and friends and family and god, and everything has helped me overcome that. And I think that's really important for people to hear, people that have been through it before.
Imagine having everything going for you and then, in a split second, your life takes a dramatic turn. That’s exactly what happened to Andrew, an athlete with a promising future, whose world changed on a fateful Valentine's Day snowboarding trip. A devastating accident left him paralyzed from the chest down, leading to a reliance on heavy pain medication. This dependency spiraled into addiction and eventually into selling counterfeit drugs laced with fentanyl from the Mexican cartel.
Andrew's story is one of hitting rock bottom but not staying there. Through immense support from friends, family, and his faith, he managed to claw his way back from the brink. Now, he's on a mission to help others facing similar struggles. In this episode of Recovcast, Andrew shares his journey from addiction to advocacy, offering hope and encouragement to those battling their own demons.
His story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of community and faith. If you're looking for inspiration and proof that recovery is possible, Andrew's story is a must-listen.
