Recovery is all about connections. I now volunteer as a counsellor in one of the growing rehabs in Kampala. Helping people to recover from addiction is a passion for me.
Gregory's story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit. In the bustling suburbs of Kampala, Uganda, where alcohol-related issues are widespread, Gregory's journey to sobriety stands out. He battled addiction head-on, turning to inpatient rehabilitation programs, Alcoholics Anonymous, and his Pentecostal church for support. This episode of 'I Closed the Depot: Addiction and Recovery in Kampala' offers a heartfelt look at how Gregory's faith and family played crucial roles in his recovery process.
His story is not just about overcoming addiction but also about the importance of community and volunteering. Gregory now helps others on their own paths to recovery, proving that personal struggles can transform into sources of strength and support for others. Whether you're facing similar challenges or know someone who is, Gregory's journey provides hope and inspiration, highlighting traditional and modern approaches to tackling addiction in Uganda.
