This week’s guest, Patrick, didn’t have his first drink until he was 21 and went through seven treatments (two of which were at Pride) before he got sober. He considers himself a "black-out drinker" and was recently diagnosed with Asperger’s, a form of Autism Spectrum Disorder, and talks about the relief he felt post-diagnosis and how it may have contributed to his substance use. Patrick is just shy of seven years sober.
