It just eroded everything in my life, to the point where I remember going to a friend of mine's wedding, a woman I'd known since childhood, and when she saw me she burst into tears because I had become so gaunt and so kind of horrific looking.
Imagine being sober from alcohol for nearly eleven years, only to find yourself ensnared by another devastating addiction. That's Guy's story. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Guy opens up about his unexpected descent into crystal meth addiction while in recovery from alcoholism. Initially, he thought meth was harmless, a mere party drug. But soon, he discovered its dark side. The drug made him hypersexual yet emotionally detached, causing him to neglect basic hygiene and lose his job.
Guy's life spiraled out of control until he hit rock bottom spiritually. His journey to recovery wasn't easy; it was humbling and required immense community support. He shares how meetings played a crucial role, teaching him to listen and be present without feeling the need to escape or defend himself. Guy's story is a powerful reminder that sobriety is possible, even after the darkest times.
If you're looking for an honest and raw account of addiction and recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
