How did addiction impact Donny Starkins' life in the episode #278: The Ultimate Comeback: Rebuilding Life After Addiction with Donny Starkins and the clip Finding Identity Beyond Sports?
What was Donny Starkins' process of getting sober as mentioned in the podcast?
I struggle with addiction; I start drinking or using drugs, and it gets bad quickly, with 3-day hangovers and week-long withdrawals. I’ll get sober, but a week or two later, I relapse. Sometimes it's worse than others, depending on how fast I decide I need to stop. I’m severely depressed and tired of living like this. I get no joy or tranquility, which makes me give in to drinking and drugs again. I desperately want to be sober and find peace. Is there anything specific I can focus on, such as vitamins, gut health, or other lifestyle changes, to break this vicious cycle?
