I talk about the inner turmoil I struggled with inside my mind during the worst of my drug addiction and alcoholism. Why I continued to hit rock bottoms and keep using despite all evidence pointing to the logical solution of quitting. I talk about the stigma of being a drug addict and what others said to me that didn't help at all and what others did that helped incredibly.
This video was made with the intention of giving an insight to what the addict(myself) was thinking, how I justified my using, how I lost my power to make smart choices and control my using and the consequences that followed, how others tried to help me and how some really helped me when I felt most undeserving of any help at all.
This video is not meant to elicit sympathy or to make excuses for addicts still using, or to trigger anyone, its made just to express my experience and hopefully connect with someone out there so they know they are not alone and this is a continued battle but that drug addiction and criminal offenses no matter how many don't have to define your future. It is something that can be treated medically and you can begin to heal from.
I called a 1-800- number when I was trying to find a treatment center, I also had people drop me off at hospitals when I felt suicidal, homicidal, or just ready to quit.
Please reach out for help if you want to quit and can't stop using. 1-800-662-4357
