Two Years Sober: Then vs. Now | The Loudness McEvil Symposium
from The Loudness McEvil Symposium: An Addict's Recovery Journey · host Jason MacLeod / Addiction Recovery and Social Awareness Creator
Two years ago, I used opioids for the last time. Before that: 30 years of heroin, cocaine, fentanyl, and meth. 12 years of homelessness. And a birthday cake made of Smarties that finally meant something.In Episode 2 of The Loudness McEvil Symposium, I compare Then vs. Now — sleeping in parking garages vs. having opinions about flooring, dumpster dining vs. six-dollar canned tomatoes, stealing cars vs. talking to people who own McLarens.This isn't a brag. It's proof that the distance between those two lives is walkable — even when you're inside the one that feels impossible.Topics: addiction recovery, sobriety milestones, homelessness, mental health, 12-step, SMART Recovery, fentanyl, opioid crisis, harm reduction.If you're struggling, or love someone who is — this one's for you.
