Kevin: Violence, Shame, and a Search for Something More (Part 1)

Kevin’s story doesn’t start with addiction—it starts with chaos, trauma, and the beliefs that were formed long before he ever picked up a substance. In Part 1, Kevin shares what it was like growing up in an environment marked by violence, instability, and shame—and how those early experiences began shaping the way he saw himself and the world around him. From childhood trauma to searching for identity, this conversation dives into the moments that quietly (and sometimes loudly) define who we become. And just when everything begins to escalate… we reach a moment that changes everything. This is Part 1 of Kevin’s story.
