My compass was drugs and alcohol for so long, and that was replaced with the steps, and that became my toolkit to deal with life and live life on life's terms.
Jason's story is a powerful reminder of how addiction can turn life upside down. In this episode of 'Generation SOS: ON RECORD,' Jason opens up about his intense four-year struggle with opioid addiction. It all started with seemingly harmless partying—renting hotel rooms and hitting up nightclubs—but quickly spiraled into something far more dangerous. Along the way, Jason faced heartbreaking losses, including the deaths of friends to the same addiction that gripped him.
Legal troubles and severe depression added to his challenges, making his journey even more daunting. But Jason didn't let these obstacles define him. Through the support of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and therapy, he found a way out. Now, he views sobriety not as a burden but as a blessing, a mindset he is deeply grateful for. Jason's story highlights the importance of having a robust support system and practical tools to navigate life's ups and downs.
His experiences serve as a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear Jason's candid account of his journey from the depths of addiction to the clarity of a sober life.
