Aaron's Story: From Liver Disease to Filmmaking and Sobriety

I think that's why I kind of had to tell myself every time that I did have positive ways of fighting my way through it rather than just going for the negative.
Imagine being diagnosed with a serious liver disease at a young age and turning to alcohol and drugs as a way to cope. That's exactly what happened to Aaron, a young man from Cornwall, who shares his journey in this episode of 'Let's Recover Together'. Growing up in the picturesque West Country, Aaron's life took a dark turn when his health issues led him to excessive drinking and substance abuse.
By his late teens, his alcohol use was out of control, straining relationships with friends and family. But Aaron's story doesn't end there. He reached a point where he knew he had to change or risk losing everything. In this candid conversation, Aaron opens up about hitting rock bottom and the steps he took to climb back up. He talks about the mental health challenges he faced and how living in a small town added to his struggles.
But through resilience and determination, Aaron found a way to turn his life around. Now, he's enjoying a fulfilling career as a filmmaker, using his creative talents to inspire others. Aaron's story is a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, there's always a path to recovery and a brighter future.
