If this episode made anything more apparent to you, I hope it's that addiction is a family disease. It doesn't just affect the person who uses or drinks, and that's exactly what makes it so pervasive.
Imagine growing up in a world where addiction is a constant shadow. For Joy, a mother of three, this was her reality. Her parents were addicts, and the men she dated struggled with alcoholism. Though Joy herself never battled addiction firsthand, its impact was woven into the fabric of her life. In this episode of TDH Voice, Joy opens up about her tumultuous upbringing and how it shaped her journey to find peace and stability.
Joy shares that despite the chaos, she always felt loved but never truly safe. Her story takes a hopeful turn when she meets her now-husband, who is in recovery. Through him, she learns that a life without constant turmoil is possible and that she deserves it. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how addiction affects not just the person struggling but everyone around them.
It underscores the importance of seeking help and the powerful role relationships can play in recovery. If you're looking for a story that balances raw honesty with hope, Joy's journey might just resonate with you.
