It's awesome to see the six and seven, the character defects. Every day I get to grow into this program and hopefully help other people grow as well and find that way out of the dark and not be hopeless anymore, because I know what it's like to be hopeless and suicidal.
Natalie C. takes us on a gripping journey through the highs and lows of addiction and the path to recovery in this episode of 'Armed With Tracks - 12 Step Speaker Meeting'. She candidly recounts her battles with substance abuse, from sneaking around with a toxic partner to using cocaine and opiates. Natalie also opens up about the complicated family dynamics that played a role in her addiction, including her parents' turbulent relationship and her mother's untimely death.
Despite attending college and holding a job in hospitality, her life spiraled out of control, leading to the loss of her apartment, boyfriend, and even her beloved dog. The turning point came when she found herself in detox after stealing drugs from a treatment center. It was here that she discovered the transformative power of the 12-step recovery program.
With time and support, Natalie began to address her character flaws and make amends to those she had hurt, including her abusive ex-boyfriend. Now, with months of sobriety under her belt, she feels grateful for the chance to grow and help others on their recovery journeys. Natalie's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about the resilience and hope that come with recovery. Tune in to hear her full story and find inspiration in her words.
