I didn't know who I was, I didn't know I had lost my passions, I'd lost my true self, and I had to find that again, and it's a tough spot to be, you know, I think that I think the majority of people get there once in their life, whether they're in there, they're in alcoholic or not.
Tom Boldt's story is a gripping tale of early struggles and eventual triumph. His relationship with drugs started innocently enough—an anxiety pill to help him sleep before his first day of school. That single pill led to a dependency that would consume his life. Tom's addiction spiraled into daily use, costing him friendships, relationships, and nearly everything he held dear. But this isn't just a story of despair; it's one of hope and resilience.
In this episode of Sober Nation FM, hosted by Jonathan Sylvester, Tom opens up about his darkest moments and the turning point that led him to seek help. His mother, Laura, a recovering addict herself, played a pivotal role in his journey to sobriety. Their shared experience culminated in co-authoring the book 'Unraveled: A Mother and Son Story of Addiction and Redemption', which delves deep into their intertwined battles with addiction and their paths to recovery.
Tom discusses the cathartic process of writing the book with his mother, reflecting on his past and the steps he took to rebuild his life. He emphasizes the importance of connection and support in maintaining sobriety, offering valuable insights for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting a loved one through it. This episode is more than just a conversation; it's a beacon of hope for those navigating the choppy waters of addiction.
Tom's story serves as a reminder that recovery is possible, and with the right support and determination, you can reclaim your life. Tune in for an inspiring discussion that will leave you feeling empowered and ready to take the next step in your own journey.
