I knew I wasn't going to take a drink in there because there was people that thought like me and felt like me and understood what I was going through, because they'd been there before, which is the same thing I experienced here at MARR.
Matt R. opens up about his rollercoaster ride through addiction, relapse, and the road to recovery in this powerful episode of 'Stories of Recovery'. Picture this: Matt is in treatment, trying to focus on his own recovery, while his wife is also battling her own demons in a separate program. It’s a tough situation, right? Things take a turn for the worse when she relapses and is asked to leave her program.
In a desperate attempt to save her, Matt leaves his own treatment, but both end up relapsing. This episode isn't just about the setbacks, though. Matt dives into how the 12 Step Program became his lifeline. He talks about the incredible support he found in the recovery community, which helped him stay sober through some dark times. One of the most touching parts of Matt's story is his relationship with his father.
He shares candidly about how his addiction strained their bond and how getting sober allowed him to make amends and rebuild that relationship. Matt's journey is a testament to the power of self-reflection and personal growth. He reflects on how his experiences with addiction and recovery have shaped him into a better person. If you're looking for a story that’s raw, real, and ultimately uplifting, this episode is a must-listen.
