Hannah's Battle: Overcoming Cocaine and Alcohol Addiction

On the inside I'm fucking dead.
Hannah's journey through the dark corridors of cocaine and alcohol addiction is nothing short of gripping. Growing up in a household where her father wielded money to gain favor, Hannah and her sister were thrust into a world where drugs and alcohol were disturbingly normal. From a young age, she knew something was off but felt powerless to change her path.
This episode of 'Sympathy for the Devil' brings Hannah's raw and candid story to light, offering listeners a window into the complexities of addiction and recovery. Hannah’s narrative isn’t just about the substances she struggled with; it’s also about the challenges of admitting there’s a problem in the first place. She discusses how fellowship and meditation became crucial pillars in her recovery.
The episode also touches on a sobering statistic: many women in 12-step fellowships have faced sexual or domestic abuse, experiences that profoundly shape their lives and struggles with addiction. Hannah's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of support systems and self-reflection in overcoming addiction. Her words, 'On the inside I'm fucking dead', resonate deeply, encapsulating the despair many feel but rarely voice.
Tune in to hear more about how Hannah confronted her demons and began to reclaim her life.
