Graham Conquer I help run a recovery group on fb check it it's called real talk in recovery where your voice matters we also help ppl get into recovery
If one struggles with drug addiction must they also quit alcohol? If one struggles with alcohol must they also quit drugs? I’m trying to understand how recovery works.
Everyone is different but speaking from personal experience, I started off struggling with meth and heroin, never had an alcohol problem. When I kicked meth and heroin, I started drinking (cause it was never a problem previously) It quickly turned into a problem though And I rapidly spiraled
People in na are selfish and have there issues never helped me. I was an addict at there meeting and I felt very unwelcome clean now with spirituality not na
This isn’t how every meeting or group is. It may have been that particular group/meeting. But I’ve been to multiple where they’ve made me feel like family. I encourage everyone to try it! Some people need more than spirituality. They need support from other addicts and the 12 steps.
I feel like when a person has truly truly hit the point of wanting to recover for themselves, they have risen above the things we call "triggers". Just my opinion tho. We all have different experiences so what's true for 1 may not b true for another
I just started listening to him recently... struggled with addiction for 20 years... So many words he says gives me strength and hope
I'll cross my fingers for you. You can make it
What a brilliant man, such a proud fan.
I absolutely love that Macklemore doesn’t glamorize drinking and drugging like so many other rappers!
I just love this man
So grateful he went public with his story. It's super important that people normalize talking about this stuff.
Such a bad ass.i been struggling . Lost my little sister last year.
I’m really sorry brother. That’s a hard hit and I know how it must hurt. May God be with you.
Macklemore shares his personal experience with opioid addiction.
Sharing because these words need to be heard

how can I interest my son to watch?
Send him the link?
Tell him that if he doesn't see himself doing drugs in 5 years not to do them today.
It's what I tell myself to keep from doing them.. I just started recovery. I am sick of relapsing. One day after another.

generally speaking, yes. But everyone is differnt.

@@olsonandfriends damn, I hope you have overcome your addictions and are doing well.
For a lot of people, alcohol is a gateway to other substances. Alcohol can lead to all kinds of other things. But recovery is different for everyone

Good pts! Not sure if all the cussing was necessary in that setting however!
I agree with everything that he said except the fact that it’s a disease.
The disease label is a cop out. I totally agree with you.
Doesn't really matter if you guys agree because it fits the definition. Pretty arrogant to argue with the dictionary but okay
Got any weed?
What drugs was he on?
