I'm sober seeing this stuff when everybody else in the street is high, so they're not affected by it.
Marques' journey through addiction and mental health struggles is nothing short of remarkable. In this episode of the Sober Beach podcast, he opens up about his battle with bipolar disorder and his eight-year stint as a dry addict. Life threw him plenty of curveballs, but Marques' resilience shines through as he navigates a neighborhood rife with drug temptations and the constant lure of immediate gratification and codependency.
He candidly discusses the fear of relapse when he moved to Washington DC for a new job and how he found solace in his wallpaper installation business. Marques also emphasizes the importance of having a support system, whether it's calling someone from his step program or diving into a book during triggering moments. His story is a powerful reminder that recovery is a winding road filled with highs and lows, but perseverance and hope can lead to a brighter future.
If you or someone you care about is grappling with addiction or mental health issues, Marques' experiences offer a beacon of inspiration. Tune in to hear his candid account and find encouragement to keep moving forward.
