Mike T's Wild Ride: From Oxycontin Dealer to Sober Advocate

The most important concept of all the spiritual teachings that I've read about, and all the AA that I've gone to, and all the people with decades of sobriety that I've listened to, the one constant thing that I think is the most important thing is just fucking relax and try to keep it in the day.
Mike T's story is anything but ordinary. In this episode of 'The Dopesick Champion', he sits down with host Will Slater for a candid chat about his rollercoaster journey through addiction and recovery. Mike doesn't hold back, sharing raw details about his days selling oxycontin 80s and his spiral into IV drug use. But it wasn't all doom and gloom—Mike's tale is peppered with humor and moments of enlightenment that make this conversation both gripping and relatable.
He talks about the turning points that led him to seek help, including stints in rehab and jail, and the spiritual teachings that helped him stay sober. One of his biggest lessons? Learning to 'just fucking relax' and live one day at a time. If you're looking for an unfiltered look at the highs and lows of addiction recovery, Mike T's story is a must-listen.
