Let us come together with our lived and living experience as a resource that has the power to engage new thought processes, to promote new ideas, to broaden the spectrum of care and to show the world that we can recover.
Imagine standing on a bridge, torn between ending it all and making a desperate call for help. That's the crossroads Tee found herself at after years of battling addiction and mental health issues. Raised by her grandmother, Tee managed to avoid substances until a knee injury at 18 led to a prescription for oxys.
What followed was a downward spiral into addiction that lasted 15 years, compounded by the sudden loss of her grandmother and the harsh realities of street life. In this episode of 'Hard Knox Talks: Sober Stories. Real Talk.', Tee opens up about her incredible journey from the depths of despair to a life filled with hope and purpose.
She shares the raw and honest moments that led her to choose Suboxone over suicide, and how medication-assisted treatment played a crucial role in her recovery. Tee also discusses the impact of trauma and past experiences on her addiction, offering a candid look at the complexities of substance use disorder. Listeners will hear about the importance of a strong support system and how Tee's network helped her navigate the challenges of recovery.
Her story is a testament to the power of resilience and the possibility of finding light even in the darkest times. If you're grappling with addiction or mental health struggles, Tee's story serves as a powerful reminder that help is out there, and recovery is within reach.
