Generation Oxy: Douglas Dodd's Journey Through Prescription Drug Addiction

I won't have anybody around me that uses drugs. To begin with, but unfortunately, when I look and I see some people around me that are still suffering with a drug addiction, you know it's been years almost and you know they're still doing drugs and they're getting high.
Imagine starting with just half a pill, only to find yourself deep in the world of drug dealing and addiction. That's exactly what happened to Douglas Dodd. In this gripping episode of 'Sharing Recovery', Douglas opens up about his harrowing experience with prescription drug addiction. He takes us through the early days of his usage, how it escalated to dealing drugs across state lines, and the eventual consequences he faced, including jail time.
But this isn't just a story of downfall; it's also one of redemption. Douglas highlights the critical role of seeking help and surrounding yourself with supportive, drug-free individuals. His story is a stark reminder of the devastating impact of the opioid epidemic and a beacon of hope for those on the path to recovery. If you're curious about the realities of prescription drug addiction or looking for inspiration to stay sober, this episode is a must-listen.
