Honestly, you know, it's incredible. Like everything I've been presented with since I got here has been nothing but opportunity, opportunity, opportunity, and it's just been incredible, man, it's, it's. It makes me like emotional in a good way, because, like I, just I don't know how I would have done without it.
Imagine growing up surrounded by chaos and addiction, only to find yourself trapped in a cycle of violence and substance abuse. That's the reality Keith faced. At just 24, this young man from San Diego has already battled a seven-year struggle with heroin and other substances. But Keith's story doesn't end there; it's about his remarkable turnaround and how he's learning to live with co-occurring PTSD.
In this compelling episode of 'That Was Then /// This Is Now', Keith opens up about his tumultuous upbringing, his time in the juvenile judicial system, and his experiences in group homes. He and host Garrett Cady dive deep into the challenges of living with PTSD while on the road to recovery. They discuss coping mechanisms, the importance of professional help, and the often-overlooked need for patience and honesty in the healing process.
Keith's journey is a powerful testament to resilience, showing that no matter how dark the past, there's always a glimmer of hope for a brighter future. If you're looking for inspiration or simply want to understand the complexities of addiction and mental health, this episode is a must-listen.
