Looking back at it all, I wouldn't take back anything, I wouldn't take back the prison experience because I got to discover who I was. I actually like my feelings today when things happen, when I see things on TV, I don't have to make a joke about it. I can actually cry when something is sad on TV, it's okay, or on the movies or whatever.
Imagine battling addiction from a young age and finding yourself in and out of trouble, only to emerge stronger on the other side. That's the story Dean W shares on this episode of 'The Terminally Unique Podcast'. Hosted by Dean Wright and Diva Arias, this episode turns the spotlight on Dean himself, who opens up about his early encounters with addiction, the grip of meth, and the chaotic life that followed.
Dean's candid reflection on how addiction affected his relationships and led him down a path of illegal activities is both eye-opening and heart-wrenching. He talks about hitting rock bottom, including a stint in prison, which became a turning point for him. Dean found solace in therapy and the unwavering support of a community that helped him stay sober for 11 years.
This episode is a raw and real look at the highs and lows of addiction recovery, filled with moments of self-discovery and the relentless pursuit of a better life. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in human resilience, Dean's story offers valuable insights and hope.
