Derek's Story

This week we are joined by Derek who talks in great detail about his frame of mind regarding recovery during his early attempts. From thinking he could simply will himself into sobriety and his belief that he can do it all on his own to understanding that he needs to be honest and seek peer support. He talks about how he has been able to build up his self esteem while also pushing himself to work through his own fears during recovery. He continually strives to get better; sharing his experience, strength and hope as an outstretched hand. Thank you Derek!
