How To Handle An Addict

*Language not suitable for children*

Can you imagine losing two of your loved ones to suicide? 

This episode we're introducing you to a man named Eric.  He lost his father and wife to suicide.   He had to endure that unbearable pain two separate times in his life.    

Needless to say he's had to deal with a lot of shit in his life.  He's also created a lot of shit in his life.  

Eric isn't shy about telling you he's also a recovering drug addict and alcoholic.  

But, smashed between two shit storms, he somehow pulled himself out of all that darkness and got help.   That help led him to sober up and that's when the magic started for him and the community he now serves. 

As the old saying goes, it's not what happens to you but how you handle it.  He got a handle on his life and put his efforts into creating Dr1ven Industries.

At Dr1ven Industries, they assist people to reach their full potential despite their battle with mental illness, suicidal thoughts and substance abuse. 

If you have a young loved one struggling or you're battling with something yourself ... you should check Dr1ven out. 

Eric has a huge social media following on Instagram, Tik Tok and Youtube.  The guy puts himself out there for people. 

He's talking to us about his experiences and switching off negative self-talk.  

We also made sure to ask, "how should a parent, spouse or a child help their loved one dealing with similar struggles?" 

Having been on both sides, he gives us a very real answer.  It might not be easy for you to hear!  But, it might be what you need to hear!
