Suggested Lived Experiences

I never felt fully included in society and felt my efforts never reached the level of my peers. This insecurity and low self-worth grew in my teens until I found my magic potion -alcohol. I continued to chase a high to cover for my inner emptiness, and I ended up completely outside society. The shame of my position despite having no excuses for my felt shortcoming was the last step of my hopelessness.

See how a former addict from a peer support group triggered my inner curiosity for a new high, change. Hear how joining the group gave me renewed belief and hope that I could get clean and create a life I wanted for myself. Learn how I slowly started making changes and built up myself worth in the process, to become the engaged and working family father I am today.
