I don't know if you've personally experienced psychosis, but anyone who has will know that it doesn't go away right away and, just like John said in his podcast, I had an opportunity to listen to it, which is awesome. Sometimes it's a journey that you don't return from.
Dane's life has been a rollercoaster, marked by childhood trauma and a desperate search for relief. In this episode of 'The New Way of Life Podcast', he opens up about his early struggles, starting with ADHD medication in his teenage years. But what began as a temporary fix soon spiraled into a deeper addiction, leading him to stronger substances and ultimately, methamphetamine.
His time in the military offered a brief escape, but the underlying issues remained unresolved, pulling him back into the grip of addiction. Despite achieving financial success, Dane's addiction led him to institutions and nearly claimed his life after a meth overdose. Now, in early recovery, Dane stands as a beacon of hope in support groups. His dedication to recovery is nothing short of inspiring.
He shares how gaining even a little knowledge about recovery can change everything, making it impossible to go back to old ways without feeling the difference. Tune in to hear Dane's powerful story of hitting rock bottom and clawing his way back to sanity. It's a raw and honest look at the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of seeking help when you need it most.
