Linda's Journey: From Opioid Dependence to Lasting Recovery

It's never too late, and there's just so much hope on the other side.
Imagine battling debilitating migraines and finding relief in a prescription, only to discover that the remedy becomes a new kind of struggle. That's the heart-wrenching story Linda P. shares with host William C. Moyers in this episode of 'Let's Talk Addiction & Recovery'. When Linda was prescribed Percocet for her migraines, she never imagined it would lead her down a path of addiction.
For years, shame kept her silent and trapped, but her story is one of eventual triumph and healing. Linda opens up about how medication-assisted treatment, along with a mix of inpatient and outpatient rehab, helped her reclaim her life. Her candid discussion sheds light on the importance of seeking help and the role of a supportive healthcare community in recovery. If you're looking for a story that combines vulnerability with hope, this episode is a must-listen.
It's not just about addiction; it's about finding the courage to ask for help and the strength to heal.
