Herschel's Path: From Jail Cells to Healing at MARR
And like I got to a place where I was okay, being the same as you, or just a little bit worse.
Herschel didn't think he had a problem. He was just binge drinking a few nights a week, right? But when his nights out started landing him in jail, his family decided enough was enough. They gave him a tough choice: get treatment or face the consequences on his own. At 29, after wrecking a car, Herschel finally took their ultimatum seriously and checked into MARR Addiction Treatment Centers. What he found there was far from the misery he expected.
Instead, he discovered hope, connection, and peace through the 12 Step Program. Herschel's story is one of transformation—moving from denial and chaos to a life filled with purpose and repair. Making amends and rebuilding relationships became his new focus, showing just how powerful seeking help can be. This episode is a must-listen for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
Herschel’s journey offers a raw, honest look at the impact of setting boundaries and the incredible changes that can come from taking that first step toward recovery.
