The therapeutic value of one addict helping another is without parallel
Picture a young athlete with a bright future, only to see it crumble under the weight of addiction. In this episode of 'The Truth About Addiction', host Ron Isherwood sits down with recording artist Logan Bruce to uncover his compelling journey from the baseball diamond to the depths of alcoholism, and ultimately, to musical salvation. Logan had what many would call an ideal childhood and excelled at baseball.
However, his shyness found an escape in alcohol, which soon became a crutch. The stakes were high, and the cost was steep – losing both his baseball and college scholarships. Logan hit rock bottom outside a pawn shop, contemplating selling his prized guitar for another drink. But instead of pawning his passion, he chose to check into a treatment center the next day.
There, he penned his first song and performed it for fellow recovering addicts, discovering a new purpose in music. Now six years sober, Logan opens up about the critical role of support systems in recovery and the healing power of music. He also touches on the broader need for awareness and empathy in dealing with addiction. This episode is a raw and heartfelt narrative that offers hope and understanding to anyone grappling with similar struggles.
