But if you tell him you got his back, you know, then he's got yours. So, standing at the bottom of the canyon, wanting to get out, not really willing to do anything to get out, that's not going to work, you know, you just got to grab a shovel.
Ever felt like you're at the bottom of a canyon with no way out? In this gripping episode of the SoberSteveRecovery podcast, Steve takes you on a raw journey through his struggles with heroin addiction. He opens up about the 13-year battle that nearly consumed him, the countless relapses, and the tragic loss of 41 friends along the way.

Steve breaks down how addiction alters brain chemistry, making it a disease that's tough to explain to others. Through his personal experiences, he sheds light on why understanding this is crucial for those trying to help loved ones battling addiction. You'll hear about the importance of finding healthy alternatives, boosting self-confidence, and the role of a solid support system in recovery. Steve's analogy of climbing out of a canyon perfectly captures the essence of taking action to reclaim your life.
