Today, because of this fellowship and program, I know that I'm going to live beyond anything I thought was possible.
Whitney's story isn't what you'd typically expect when you think of severe drug addiction. In this episode of 'Stories of Addiction', she opens up about her journey, starting with a seemingly harmless prescription for Vicodin after having her wisdom teeth removed. This initial encounter with opiates spiraled into a full-blown addiction to heroin and meth, leading to years of homelessness and crime in Santa Cruz, California. Whitney's life took a dramatic turn when she realized she had contracted Hepatitis C.
This wake-up call, combined with witnessing her boyfriend's transformation after getting clean in jail, inspired her to seek sobriety. She detoxed on her own and now lives in a sober living environment, finding strength in the support of her boyfriend and a 12-step program sponsor. Whitney's story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible with determination and the right support system.
Tune in to hear how she turned her life around and find inspiration for your own journey towards sobriety.
