Casey's Path to Sobriety: From College Partying to Painkiller Recovery

It started out for me like partying in high school, relatively normally, and then it was like: oh, my god, I can do this all the time and I don't have to feel how I'm feeling all the time.
Have you ever wondered how someone transitions from college partying to daily substance use and eventually finds their way to sobriety? This episode of 'So You Wanna Get Sober' features Casey, who opens up about her personal journey through addiction and recovery. Casey's story begins with high school and college parties, but soon spirals into a daily struggle with alcohol and painkillers.
She doesn't shy away from discussing the difficult moments, including coming out while sober and navigating the emotional turmoil of broken relationships. One of the most compelling aspects of Casey's journey is her emphasis on the importance of social support. She highlights how having a community and being honest with oneself can be crucial for recovery.
Casey's candid reflections on overcoming painkiller addiction provide a raw and inspiring look at the complexities of addiction and the hope that comes with recovery. Whether you're on your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Casey's story offers valuable insights and encouragement.
