I dealt with addiction most of my life. I have come to realize that I was running from everything. My own pain, insecurities, problems, trauma everything! I wanted to feel none of it so I turned to drugs and alcohol. Honestly, even though people did try to help, I was in such a bad place mentally, there was nothing anyone could do. I have destroyed numerous relationships with family and friends, in and out of jail 25 times totally 7 years in. My life was a complete mess. I finally hit a BOTTOM. That bottom had me realizing that I just do not want to do this anymore. That was 14 years ago. Now 14 years ago is when I wanted to change, but it was still not pretty. Still relapsed. Still went to jail but my mindset had change and with every mistake, I wanted to be away from it more and more! I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO DO, BUT I WAS GOING TO DO IT💪🏻 Now 4 years sober, I have a beautiful family, great business, wonderful friends, I fixed every relationship I was able to. This has been alot of work but I am truly relentless in becoming the best version of myself! I hope this begins engagement here in this community. This is a safe place and I can say, talking about what is going on is going to help heal!! I will use all my experience and knowledge to help in any way I can, I give you my word! There's POWER in a great community, and WE ARE SPARTANS! TALK SOON! STAY RELENTLESS!💪🏻
