Ricky's Road: From Meth Addiction to Spiritual Sobriety

Being sobriety is a scary thing when you haven't been there for so long. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm clear, I'm thinking so much more clear, and I don't always go to that. And, like you know- and now I've stopped myself, I'm like I'm like: hold on, ricky, you know, because I run into a lot of people when I paint, sometimes I get you're still doing that to This Day.
Ricky's journey through addiction and recovery is nothing short of a rollercoaster. In this episode of 'Lakin Chronicles: Road To Recovery', Dr. Greg Lakin sits down with Ricky for an honest and heartfelt conversation about his battle with meth addiction. Ricky opens up about the emotional chaos that led him down the path of substance abuse and the painful relapses that followed. His story isn't just about hitting rock bottom; it's about climbing back up, one step at a time.

Ricky’s candidness offers a raw look at the importance of humility and the strength found in support systems. He talks about the strategies he uses to stay sober and how he copes with emotional triggers.

Lakin adds depth to the conversation with his insights, making this episode a compelling listen for anyone touched by addiction. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Ricky's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit.
