Jacob S.: Finding Hope After Hitting Rock Bottom

The day I woke up and realized that I'm miserable even when I'm high...that's when I hit the point where the drugs were doing me.
Imagine waking up one day and realizing that even the high you chase isn't enough to mask the misery. That's where Jacob S.'s story begins. In this heartfelt episode of 'My Life, My Recovery', Patrick Martin sits down with his close friend Jacob, who opens up about his turbulent journey from addiction to recovery.
Jacob candidly shares how his struggles with abandonment and self-worth led him to misuse Lortabs, escalating quickly to a point where he was taking six at a time. He didn't see the impact it was having on his family until he hit rock bottom. But hitting rock bottom became a turning point for Jacob. He made the brave decision to seek treatment and credits his faith in Jesus Christ as a cornerstone of his recovery.
Now, Jacob lives a life of sobriety and wants others to know that hope and recovery are possible. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Jacob's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of seeking help.
