Recovery is getting back the things that you had before or the ways of thinking that you had before. I don't want those. I don't want those ways. I'm learning new things that I've never thought before, and I've never seen this day before. You know, it's almost like we're reborn.
What happens when you hit rock bottom and decide to fight your way back? In this episode, Daniel takes us on a raw and honest journey through his struggles with addiction and mental health. At just 15, he turned to marijuana, hoping it would ease his anxiety. Instead, it led him down a dark path of substance abuse, from meth to opioids. Despite recognizing the damage, he kept hoping each time would be different.
But things only got worse—he lost his job, his son, and even resorted to dumpster diving. His life was a series of destructive patterns until one day, he decided enough was enough. Daniel's story is one of resilience and transformation. After losing everything, including his family, he made the brave decision to seek treatment. This marked the beginning of a new chapter. He worked hard to rebuild his life, and eventually, he was reunited with his son.
Now, Daniel hosts a live streaming talk show focused on substance use and recovery. His home studio is a testament to how far he's come. This episode isn't just about the lows; it's about the incredible highs that come with sobriety. Daniel reflects on the gratitude he feels for his family and the chance to give back to his community. His story is a powerful reminder that no matter how far you've fallen, there's always a way back up.
Tune in to hear Daniel's inspiring tale of hope and second chances.
