If we can break the stigma and break the silence, more people will be willing to share their stories, like you and I. More people will be able to identify that they're in recovery, which then inspires someone who may be needing help or looking for help or wants to, you know, call that question at the dinner table to do that.
Ever thought about what it takes to climb out of the dark hole of opioid addiction? Courtney Friel dives into this challenging topic with Ryan Hampton, an author who has lived through the nightmare of addiction and come out the other side. In this heartfelt episode, Ryan opens up about his personal struggle with the opioid crisis and the notorious pill mills in Florida that ensnared him.
He doesn’t sugarcoat his multiple attempts at traditional treatment, sharing how it was a mix of detox, medication-assisted treatment, and a stable living environment that finally set him on the path to sobriety. Ryan also sheds light on the crucial role of recovery supports and the urgent need for more funding and resources in this area. But what stands out most is his passionate call to break the stigma surrounding addiction.
He believes that sharing stories like his can inspire others to seek help and start their own recovery journeys. As Ryan says, 'If we can break the silence, more people will be willing to share their stories, like you and I.' Tune in to hear his inspiring story and gain a deeper understanding of the battles faced by those in recovery.
