Damian Bloss: Breaking the Silence on Addiction, Recovery, Mental Health, & Finding Your Life Again

What happens when addiction takes years of your life, but recovery gives you the chance to rebuild it?Today’s guest, Damian Bloss, is a recovery advocate, author, speaker, and founder of Breaking the Silence, a peer support community dedicated to helping individuals and families impacted by addiction and mental health challenges.After more than 20 years of struggling with addiction, Damian found lasting sobriety on February 13, 2020. His journey from addiction to healing became the foundation for a powerful mission: helping others understand that they are not alone, recovery is possible, and sobriety can mean far more than simply stopping an addiction.In this conversation, Damian opens up about the realities of addiction, the turning point that changed his life, the role of mental health in recovery, the importance of support, and what it truly means to rebuild your identity and purpose after addiction.We’ll also explore his books, Breaking the Silence: My Journey from Addiction to Healing and Recovering Out Loud, and discuss why sharing difficult stories openly can help break stigma and give hope to people who may still be suffering in silence.If you or someone you love is navigating addiction, recovery, mental health challenges, or the difficult journey of starting over, this is a conversation about resilience, honesty, healing, and the possibility of getting your life back.Connect with Damian Bloss and explore his work:
