None of the ways I tried to get sober worked. The only way was through AA, and it was plain to me.
Imagine being known as the 'party guy' in college, only to find yourself in a psych ward after a week-long LSD binge. That's Justin's story. At just 25, he's already been through the wringer of addiction and come out the other side. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Justin opens up about his wild college days, marked by heavy drinking and drug use, which eventually led to multiple arrests and being kicked out of school three times.
His turning point? A three-month outpatient treatment program and the support he found in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Justin’s candid account sheds light on the unique challenges young people face in getting sober. He talks about the spiritual experiences that AA offers and how they played a crucial role in his recovery. Justin also emphasizes the power of sharing your story in meetings and the sense of community that comes from being surrounded by people who truly understand your struggles.
This episode isn't just about the lows of addiction; it's a testament to the highs of recovery and the transformative power of support systems. If you're looking for a story that combines raw honesty with hope, Justin's journey is one you won't want to miss.
