Corey N.'s Journey: From Childhood Struggles to Sobriety on RAW Recovery

I remember people telling me: why would you do that? I love you, right, and it just didn't sit well, and it wasn't the person I wanted to say I love you.
What happens when a tough childhood sets the stage for addiction? In this episode of RAW Recovery, host Dion Miller sits down with Corey N. to unravel his story of battling addiction and finding his way to sobriety. Corey opens up about his early years, where he felt compelled to be a chameleon, constantly changing to fit in and earn love.
He shares poignant memories of being the child who cleaned up after adults, a role that foreshadowed his later struggles with substance abuse. Corey’s narrative is a stark reminder of how deeply addiction can entangle itself in our relationships, especially with those we care about most. But it’s not all bleak; Corey also talks about the turning points that led him to recovery, emphasizing the importance of safe spaces and the healing power of sharing one's story.
Dion and Corey delve into the role of empathy in recovery, discussing how feeling seen and heard can make all the difference. By the end of the episode, Corey expresses his gratitude for the chance to share his journey, hoping it inspires others to speak out and seek help. If you're interested in heartfelt stories of resilience and the transformative power of recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
