If you handle those underlying issues and those reasons for using drugs in the first place, then there's no reason to use them at all.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn a life of addiction around? Kurt's story offers a raw and unfiltered look into the dark world of substance abuse and the incredible resilience it takes to reclaim one's life. Starting at just 15, Kurt's descent into addiction began with pot and acid, spiraled through cocaine and ecstasy, and reached its nadir with various psychiatric medications. Despite being a 'functioning addict' for 26 years, his life fell apart—losing his marriage, home, and happiness.
But that's not where his story ends. Now clean and sober, Kurt has pieced his life back together and reconnected with his kids. In this gripping episode of 'The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return', hosts Joanie Sigal and Jason Good dive deep into Kurt's tumultuous journey. They discuss the dangerous impact of psychiatric medications, the strain addiction places on relationships, and the crucial need to address underlying issues for a successful recovery.
As National Overdose Awareness Day approaches, Kurt's story is a poignant reminder that recovery is within reach for everyone. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration, understanding, or a glimmer of hope in the battle against addiction.
