Nobody can get through to an addict like another addict.
Ever thought about how much a friend can help you through tough times? Todd and Rollin's journey in this episode of 'Voices of Recovery' is a testament to the power of friendship in overcoming addiction.

Rollin, after a harrowing overdose in front of his daughter, realized he needed serious help.
Both men found their way to Serenity Lane, where their paths crossed and their recovery began in earnest. What makes their story so compelling is the buddy system they developed. They discovered that having someone who truly understands your struggles can make all the difference. As Todd puts it, 'Nobody can get through to an addict like another addict'. This mutual understanding helped them hold each other accountable, provide constant feedback, and push through even the toughest days.
Their bond wasn't just confined to group therapy sessions; it extended into their daily lives, helping them develop personal recovery plans and support each other in achieving their goals. The friendship they forged became a cornerstone of their sobriety, proving that recovery is best navigated with a trusted ally by your side. If you're facing similar struggles or know someone who is, this episode offers a powerful reminder that you don't have to go it alone.
Tune in to hear Todd and Rollin's inspiring story and learn how the buddy system can be a lifeline in the journey to sobriety.
