Todd G: From Trauma and Meth Psychosis to Redemption

I've always felt deep down that I'm dirty and almost like a piece of society's moral refuse. I feel seen in my support groups, because I know that we share that struggle.
What happens when a life filled with trauma and addiction spirals out of control? In this gripping episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour', Todd G opens up to host Paul Gilmartin about his tumultuous journey. Todd recounts the heartbreaking story of his co-dependent relationship that ended in tragedy, leading him down a dark path of PTSD, porn, and meth binges.
Imagine finding yourself on your roof in a standoff with a SWAT team—that's where Todd's addiction took him before he finally had a moment of clarity. From there, he began piecing his life back together, one step at a time. This episode isn't just about the lows; it's also about the incredible highs of recovery. Todd talks about the vital role mental health support groups played in his healing process.
His story is raw and real, touching on everything from the lingering effects of childhood trauma to the hurdles of maintaining healthy relationships while in recovery. If you've ever felt like you're battling your demons alone, Todd's resilience and determination will remind you that there's hope and strength in community. Tune in for an honest conversation that sheds light on the power of support and the possibility of redemption.
