Tyler's Journey: From Tragedy to Triumph in Addiction Recovery

My story, I found recovery because I was in psych wards. A lot of them, oh, really yeah, psychosis, oh, psychosis, yeah. So they used to bring me to this place called summit oaks and they were, I mean they were a dual diagnosis place, but it essentially was kind of like a uh uh, in New Jersey it's a little different than a lot of the nice treatment centers and other places now.
Ever wondered how a single traumatic event can change the course of someone's life? In this compelling episode of 'By All Means Necessary', Tyler, who has been sober for over 11 years, opens up about his journey from tragedy to recovery. Tyler recounts the heartbreaking moment when his best friend was struck and killed by a train, an event that spiraled him into the depths of addiction. His story doesn't end there, though.
Tyler found himself in and out of psych wards until he discovered Summit Oaks, a dual diagnosis treatment center that marked the beginning of his path to sobriety. Through candid reflections, Tyler discusses the skepticism he faced about recovery programs and the pivotal role sponsorship played in his journey. But what stands out most is his dedication to helping others in recovery, a commitment that has been central to his own healing.
This episode is not just about Tyler's resilience; it's a testament to the transformative power of community and support in overcoming addiction. Tune in for an emotional and inspiring story that highlights the importance of reaching out and lifting others as we climb.
