Addiction From Every Angle

Story of addiction. But not just from the view of the person battling addiction but also the viewpoint from the family, friends, significant others and any other relationship that was impacted. My name is Dan. And for 13 years I battled addiction and nearly lost my life,TWICE. During that time I was broken both internally and externally. For me, it came down to having what we would call a spiritual awakening with God for the hurts, habits and hangups to finally get worked on. Today I am a Certified Addictions Counselor, Certified Addiction Recovery Empowerment Specialist(CARES) and a Forensic Peer Mentor. These certifications have allowed me to go back and help others who have struggled like I once did. And to help them find their own pathway to Recovery.Im also a Husband, Daddy and someone who is working to continue to be a person in this world who is helping others be on this side of Addiction.

From homeless and addicted to giving hope and changing other for Good!!
After battling a 13 year addiction and suffering to the point of living out of my car because I had no more options, I turned to seeking out long term recovery and wanting to help others find what was so hard for me to find. HOPE!

In my 9 years of sobriety, i have gone from cleaning the floors to becoming CEO of my own company Carroll County Recovers llc. Where I partner with local drug courts, lead recovery based meetings and council those in the community in need.
