I don't like how it felt to live sober, but I didn't like the alternative, how I felt not being sober. I can't live the way that I'm living because I don't like it and it doesn't feel good and I'm not alive.
Ever wondered how some people manage to find light in the darkest of places? This episode of Dopey features Dina La Fonte, who opens up about her harrowing childhood and the path that led her from trauma to addiction, and ultimately, to recovery. Dina's story starts with a rough beginning—drinking at age 10, essentially homeless by 13, and navigating a life filled with neglect. But this isn't just a tale of despair; it's one of resilience and hope.
Dina shares how she turned her life around and now dedicates herself to helping others find their way out of the darkness. As always, the episode is sprinkled with the signature dark humor that makes Dopey unique. You'll also get to hear from Dave's dad, adding another layer of heartfelt and humorous moments. With emails, voicemails, and plenty of Dopey stories, this episode is a rollercoaster of emotions.
Perfect for anyone looking for an honest, unfiltered look at the struggles and triumphs in the world of addiction and recovery.
