If I trust myself enough to make the right decision in whatever the circumstance might be, or at least the most educated decision that I can, then it doesn't matter so much if I trust you, you know.
Ever felt like all your decisions were leading you down the wrong path? Erick did. In this episode of 'One Day I Decided', hosted by Omanda Patricia, Erick opens up about his quest for belonging and how it led him to substance use at a young age.
