And if I choose to focus that energy on learning something, I can hyper-focus on things and learn very quickly. I've learned how to be assertive and, to stand up for what I believe in, and all of those really amazing traits that we sometimes push away when we're using substances, because we don't want to have to deal with any problems.
Ever felt lost and turned to unhealthy habits for solace? Brett M., the voice behind the Recovery Survey Podcast, knows that feeling all too well. As a teen, Brett struggled to fit in, eventually seeking comfort in drugs and alcohol. His addiction spiraled until a wake-up call came in the form of detoxing in county jail. It was there he decided he wanted more from life than just getting high.
In this episode of The Drunken Worm Podcast, Brett opens up about his journey to recovery and the pivotal role support groups played in his transformation. He shares how attending meetings and finding a safe space helped him rebuild his self-esteem and view himself in a new light. Brett also delves into the social challenges addiction brought and how recovery taught him to be assertive and stand firm in his beliefs.
Beyond his personal story, Brett talks about launching his own recovery podcast and the diverse paths people can take toward sobriety. If you're searching for inspiration and hope on your own journey, Brett's story is a testament to the power of support and self-discovery. Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and became an advocate for others battling addiction.
