I don't think I've ever met a drug addict that says I want to wake up in the morning and I want to become a drug addict. That's what my future is going to be. I don't think I've ever heard anybody say that.
Julie, the voice behind 'Numbing The Broken Pieces', opens up about her tumultuous journey through drug addiction and recovery in this compelling episode. She shares the raw and unfiltered story of how her experimentation with pot spiraled into a full-blown addiction, including the lengths she went to for pain pills. Julie doesn’t sugarcoat the struggles she faced, comparing addiction to diabetes – influenced by both genetics and lifestyle.
Her candidness about the impact of her addiction on her parenting is both heart-wrenching and hopeful. Julie’s mission is clear: she wants to reach out to those struggling with addiction or dealing with loved ones in similar situations. She also sheds light on how codependency can trap people in toxic relationships, particularly with narcissists. Julie’s vulnerability and honesty create a safe space for listeners, encouraging them to seek help and break the stigma surrounding addiction and codependency.
This episode is not just a story; it’s a beacon of hope for anyone battling similar demons.
