I want to be able to help people who think that it's helpless, that there's hope and you can do it, and I'm here to help you get through it.
Angela's journey is a stark reminder that addiction doesn't always fit a stereotype. In this episode of 'The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return', Angela revisits her story of battling addiction while managing a household. What started with a prescription for pain medication spiraled into a dependency on alcohol and other drugs like ketamine. Unlike many stories of addiction, Angela's life didn't fall apart in the usual dramatic fashion; she was a housewife, quietly struggling behind closed doors.
Her story shines a light on those who might not see themselves as 'addicts' but still need help. Angela talks about how Narconon, a drug-free rehab program, helped her reclaim her life. The program’s unique approach, using assists, vitamins, and minerals, provided her with the tools to manage her pain and overcome her addiction without traditional rehab methods.
Hosts Joanie Sigal and Jason Good offer a compassionate space for Angela to share her experiences, discussing the often-overlooked stigma that prevents many from seeking help. They also explore the broader impact of addiction on families and the evolving landscape of rehab. Angela’s story is a powerful testament to the possibilities of recovery through alternative methods. If you or someone you know is grappling with addiction, this episode offers a beacon of hope and practical insights into overcoming these challenges.
