Sibling Bonds and Addiction: A Journey of Resilience on Brain Sushi Podcast

I thought I was this shameful, decrepit, putrid thing. I truly thought I was a monster at the core of my being and that I deserved the things I put myself through....
Imagine feeling like a monster at the core of your being. That's how Remi, the sibling of Brain Sushi Podcast host Ben, once felt. In this gripping first episode, Ben and Remi dive deep into the tumultuous waters of addiction and recovery. Trigger warnings are in place for drug use, suicide, and abuse, so listeners should prepare for an emotional ride. Remi opens up about their chaotic childhood, experiences of semi-homelessness, and living with a heroin dealer.
They even recount a near-fatal overdose that served as a wake-up call. Throughout the conversation, Ben and Remi explore the heavy impact of addiction on their relationship and individual lives. They don't shy away from discussing the societal challenges that often accompany addiction, such as limited access to care and the stigma that surrounds it. The episode also highlights the importance of resilience and support systems in the journey to sobriety.
Remi's story is one of courage and determination, proving that recovery is possible even in the darkest of times. If you're looking for a raw, heartfelt discussion on addiction and the power of familial bonds, this episode of Brain Sushi Podcast is a must-listen.
