Ambitious a Addicted: Jacob Evans
EP086- Addiction doesn't care who you are. It doesn't care if you are educated and ambitious, from a 'good' family, or from the 'worst' family. Addiction takes whoever it wants, whenever it wants. We all know the feeling of wearing the mask, creating the facade of having it all together and making sure everyone believes the facade. And on the inside we are falling apart, losing our minds and our self-respect. You finally reach a place of being so confused and angry, wondering how you ended up in this place, with no idea how to get out. Jacob Evans is another victim of the opioid crisis and his story is normal in many ways, and surprising in others. He understands the importance of the core principles of recovery in that we have to be of service to others, we have to be connected to other addicted people, and we have to be committed to rebuilding the life we tore down.
