In episode 5, I recount a transformative chapter in my journey towards sobriety. I candidly share a three-day period of solitary drinking, shedding light on the isolating nature of addiction. Amidst this struggle, I grapple with overwhelming feelings of guilt, shame, and resentment, painting a vivid picture of the emotional turmoil that held me captive. This episode offers a candid exploration of the barriers that hindered me from seeking help for so long. As the story unfolds, we witness a positive step towards change, culminating in my arrival to treatment. "Who I Had Become" serves as a poignant reminder of the strength within us all to confront our demons and embrace a path to recovery.

This episode contains talk of suicide, alcohol and drug use. Please be mindful of your own well-being. Listeners discretion is advised.
