Sometimes we'll kill ourselves in the process of getting those things and we'll do exactly the opposite of what creates those two things.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around after years of addiction? Meet Amy Dresner, author of 'My Fair Junkie', who joins Asher Gottesman on this episode of 'Showing Up'. Raised in Beverly Hills and surrounded by addiction and mental illness, Amy didn't touch drugs until her twenties. But when she did, crystal meth became her escape, leading her down a dark path. Sobriety came after a community labor sentence, and now she’s here to share her journey.
Amy opens up about the science behind addiction, including the role of genetics and dopamine deficiency. She also talks candidly about her ongoing battles with depression, anxiety, and epilepsy. This episode isn’t just about her past struggles; it’s about her current challenges too. From taking care of elderly parents to navigating the dating scene, Amy’s story is a raw, real look at life after addiction.
If you’re interested in the complexities of addiction and recovery, or just love a good comeback story, this episode is a must-listen.
