Episode notes

Some of us younger addicts feel a different sort of isolation because of our age. Being young in recovery is not easy, but it is 100% worth it. We are not alone. We have a chair in the rooms of recovery no matter the drugs we used, no matter the length of time we used, no matter how deep our bottom was.

In this episode, I share parts of my story and stories from other young addicts (published in NA literature).
