And I think your story is particularly relevant because you basically spent a year not only just yourself doing your treatment, but also helping others in treatment, and you're still doing that today.
Britt Barker had a seemingly perfect start in life with a stable family and a good upbringing. But like many, curiosity and peer pressure led him down a path of alcohol and drug addiction. Arrests and multiple stints in rehab became part of his reality. In this heartfelt episode of 'The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return', Britt opens up to host Joanie Sigal about his journey to sobriety, which began in July 2015.
He shares how music became his lifeline, leading to the release of his first solo EP, 'Trust', under the stage name Catch the Rise. Beyond his personal recovery, Britt now dedicates his time to helping others as a counselor at the local ER in Greenville, SC. His story is a powerful reminder of the importance of education, support, and accountability in overcoming addiction. This episode offers valuable insights and hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
