You know you're not alone and you're not alone, bro, and there's people out there that love you and they care for you and you know they don't want to see you like this, and I know it's hard and like getting sober and kicking fentanyl is probably one of the hardest things you'll ever do, but I promise, if you do it and you run with it, it'll all be worth it.
Imagine hitting rock bottom, unable to sleep, your esophagus burning from constant vomiting. This is where Rob found himself before embarking on a journey to sobriety.

Embracing a 12 step community, Rob found the love and support he desperately needed to regain trust from his family and friends. His story is a testament to the power of community and the importance of having a strong support system when battling addiction.
