Sean Hemeon was a drug kingpin turned informant by federal agents . Meth, and the shame of being queer nearly killed him. This is his recovery story.

Send us Fan MailSean was interrogated by federal agents. They were asking him to turn informant. And he did. That moment — terrifying, surreal — was the culmination of years spent running from trauma, shame, and addiction. Raised Mormon and queer, Sean lived in silence and meth helped him feel connected and accepted. But it almost killed him. From suicide attempts rising to the top of Washington DC's drug trade  to spiritual healing, Sean’s story is one of collapse and slow, intentional rebirth.=============Key Learning Points👉 How religious shame and identity repression fueled addiction👉 Meth psychosis, dust-off, and physical collapse👉 Drug-induced amnesia, overdose, and still returning to use👉 The manipulative survival tactics addiction teaches👉 How connection, surrender, and time finally sparked change==============✅ Buy us a coffee!✅ Need HKT Merch?✅ Check SEIU West✅ Bunny Hugs and Mental Health✅ Wellness News✅ Naranon===============Follow Sean on InstagramSupport the showSEIU-WestWellness NewsParenting in the Storm Check out Parenting in the Storm HEREAre you getting something from our content?
