I just realized that maybe like just to not give up and just always put in everything that I can into everything that I'm doing. Yeah, I think talking about it is the best way to do it.
Ever wondered how a young person grapples with addiction while dreaming big for the future? In this episode of 'Brain Garden', host Jenell Hilderbrand sits down with Crosby, a freshman at Rhodes College, to uncover his journey through addiction and alcoholism. Crosby opens up about the hurdles he's faced and the strategies he's used to overcome them, including rock climbing and playing guitar as forms of meditation and stress relief.
He also shares the profound impact of losing a friend, Kane, and how that loss has fueled his connection with youth and his drive to make a difference. The conversation doesn't shy away from tough topics like the opioid crisis, but it also highlights the importance of effort and perseverance in all areas of life. Crosby's story is a testament to the power of conversation in tackling mental health and addiction issues.
Whether you're struggling yourself or looking to support someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable advice for making a positive impact on mental wellness in your community.
