Connor's Road to Recovery: From Relapse to Reconnecting with Family

I've lied, I've cheated, I've manipulated, I've done all of these things that I used to do, not sober, I've done them sober, and that's just to say, like you know, like just because you get sober does not mean your life is going to be all fucking great man.
What happens when the path to sobriety is filled with unexpected twists and turns? In this episode of 'Sicker Than Most', Connor shares his raw and riveting journey from the depths of addiction to the highs of recovery. Growing up in Los Altos, CA with his adopted parents, Connor opens up about his early character flaws and how they led him down a dark path of substance abuse.
From experimenting with weed and liquor to spiraling into cocaine and heroin use, Connor's story is one of struggle and survival. He recounts his cross-country move in a desperate bid to get sober and the pivotal moment when he finally surrendered, leading to sustained sobriety. But the journey didn't end there. Connor also talks about meeting his biological father for the first time after years of sobriety and how this reunion brought new dimensions to his life.
This episode isn't just about the triumphs; Connor candidly discusses his battles with relationships, relapse, and the deceit that can accompany addiction, even in sobriety. His story is a powerful reminder that recovery is an ongoing process, filled with setbacks and victories. Tune in for a heartfelt narrative that underscores the importance of surrender and resilience in the face of addiction.
