Facing Addiction Together: Dan Karaty & Ryan Phillips' Honest Talk

But going away to rehab was like the shame and the guilt that you feel, the humiliation that you feel. I was scared the whole time I was in there that my wife was going to leave me. And I knew that if I could really reconnect with that person and reemerge out of rehab as that guy that I knew that I was, that would be the man my wife would want to be with, and that's the dad that I always thought that I would be.
What happens when two friends sit down to talk about their battles with addiction and the road to recovery? In this episode of 'If I'm Being Honest', Dan Karaty swaps roles with his sober friend Ryan Phillips, who takes the lead in asking the tough questions. Dan opens up about his struggles with addiction and anxiety, revealing how the pandemic forced him to confront his demons head-on.
He shares his raw experiences from rehab, the overwhelming shame and guilt, and his fear of losing his family. This conversation doesn't shy away from the hard truths. Dan and Ryan discuss the importance of the sober community, setting boundaries, and supporting each other through the ups and downs. They delve into the challenges of relapse and emphasize that sobriety is an ongoing effort. Dan also reflects on how reconnecting with himself has made him a better husband and dad.
