I've seen some bad shit too. My 15-year-old friend from rehab, one of my best friends, overdosed and died a couple months ago. I've seen a lot of people that I built really good relationships in the rooms go out. Some of them tried to come back in, but most of them just stay out... I think about every day how like I'm never too young to die like the person that um died like he was 15 years old overdosed on meth and heroin two weeks out of rehab like this shit is serious and um that's, like, the thing that keeps me going.
In this episode of Sober Cast, listeners are treated to two compelling stories of recovery. Ruby, just 16 years old, bravely shares her journey through the dark world of addiction.

His story highlights the importance of perseverance and the transformative power of support networks. This episode offers a heartfelt glimpse into the diverse paths individuals take on their road to sobriety.
It’s a powerful reminder that no matter where you start, there is always hope for a brighter future.
