Summary
In this week's episode, we have Mary, who started drinking alcohol, smoking weed, and cigarettes at 13 years old. It began to be a significant part of her teenage years, but the consequences would take some time to catch up. Everything really picked up when she left for college as freedom and access increased. At 20 years old, Mary found herself in rehab for the first time but was not so sure about committing to a life without alcohol. Things escalated with her addiction to drugs and alcohol after her first treatment stay, and moderation felt impossible. This is Mary's story on the Sober Motivation Podcast."
