I didn't know if I would be Casey- the fun-loving guy without alcohol.
Imagine growing up in a small Mormon town, trying alcohol for the first time at just twelve years old. That's Shane Duncan's story. In this compelling episode of Project Recovery, Shane joins hosts Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley to share his journey through the highs and lows of alcohol addiction. Shane recounts how he was introduced to the wrong crowds and the party scene, leading to him dropping out of high school at seventeen to work full-time.
His story takes a poignant turn when he talks about meeting his wife, Mindy, and how his drinking problem escalated when they moved back to their small town in Morgan, UT. Shane's struggle with hiding his addiction from his loved ones, and the eventual collapse of this facade, paints a vivid picture of the isolating nature of addiction.
The episode doesn't shy away from discussing the physical and mental toll of Shane's drinking, his initial reluctance to admit he had a problem, and the life-changing moment that led him to seek help through Action Recovery. If you're looking for an honest and heartfelt account of battling addiction in a tight-knit community, this episode is a must-listen.
