I just really need connection Today, and I know I'm going to find it there, regardless of what class or.
Picture this: a young woman grappling with depression and anxiety after her parents' divorce, finding solace in the company of friends who share a common vice—marijuana. This is Catlin Lorito's story. In this episode of Project Recovery, Catlin sits down with Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley to share her tumultuous journey through addiction and recovery.
Catlin opens up about how her initial struggles with mental health led her to the 'stoner' crowd, a group that seemed to offer the comfort she desperately needed. But as the pandemic took hold, her casual marijuana use spiraled into a heavy dependence, pushing her to the brink of suicide. It's a stark reminder of how quickly things can escalate when using substances to cope with emotional pain.
The episode delves into the critical moment when Catlin decided enough was enough. She sought help through Pinnacle Recovery in Utah, marking the beginning of her path to sobriety. One of the key takeaways from Catlin's experience is the profound impact of the pandemic on mental health and substance abuse. Her story resonates with many who turned to substances as a way to manage unprecedented stress and anxiety. Catlin also highlights the importance of support systems in recovery.
She credits her turnaround to both her own determination and the unwavering support from those around her. Fit To Recover, a community that promotes sobriety through fitness, played a significant role in her new life. It's a testament to how finding the right support can make all the difference. Throughout the episode, Catlin shares candid reflections on her journey, discussing the highs and lows, the lessons learned, and the importance of connection.
Her story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding hope and purpose in life again. Tune in to hear Catlin's inspiring tale and gain insights into the challenges and triumphs of recovery. It's a powerful reminder that no matter how dark things may seem, there's always a path to a brighter future.
