So what you're trying to say is: there is life after sobriety.
Aaron’s story is a rollercoaster of rebellion, addiction, and redemption. From a young age, Aaron had a knack for pushing boundaries. By 13, he was smoking marijuana, and at 14, he added alcohol to the mix. But it didn’t stop there. Aaron soon discovered the ease of pilfering pills from friends' medicine cabinets, leading him down a dark path. His addiction to Oxycontin lasted a year and a half, but it was just the beginning of his struggles.
At 20, Aaron’s life took a dramatic turn when he was arrested for forging prescriptions. This was his wake-up call. Hitting rock bottom, he entered an in-patient rehab center in 2001 and has been sober ever since. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Aaron opens up about the allure of the club scene, the deceptive highs of ecstasy, and the lies he told to keep his addiction hidden.
His journey is a testament to the power of hitting rock bottom and finding the strength to climb back up. Tune in to hear Aaron’s inspiring story of transformation and hope.
