Kevin's Path: Overcoming Anxiety, Depression, and Substance Abuse

One Year of being out there from a relapse was, I would say it was worse than The Two Decades of The Almost Two Decades of using consistently for for Two Decades, and I think it was because I have.
Imagine facing anxiety and depression without even knowing what you're up against. That's how Kevin's story begins. In this episode of 'From Hurt to Healing', host Daniel chats with Kevin about his tumultuous journey through mental health struggles and substance abuse. Kevin opens up about his childhood, where he unknowingly battled anxiety and depression. Things took a turn for the worse when his mother announced her divorce plans just as he was finishing high school.
This news pushed Kevin towards self-medication, setting off a chain of challenges that included treatment struggles and relapses. Despite these hurdles, Kevin found solace in helping others and eventually charted a course to recovery. He emphasizes the importance of not underestimating oneself and the value of setting personal goals. Kevin is particularly passionate about youth mental health, believing that early intervention could have changed his life.
His story is a powerful reminder of the impact of timely support and the healing power of nature, like fishing and spending time outdoors.
