“If someone else made it out, so can you.”
In this episode of Nothing’s Off The Table, I sit down with my friend Brian De, a masters-level clinician and sober coach who has been in recovery for nine years from drugs, alcohol, and gambling. Brian shares his raw, honest journey—from the “moment of arrival” with his first drink in 9th grade to the high-stakes world of underground bookies at Sacred Heart.
We dive deep into the “progression” of addiction, discussing how $50 bets eventually turned into $3,000 wagers and maxed-out credit cards. Brian opens up about his darkest moments, including the terrifying reality of suicidal ideation and the “defeated” feeling that finally led him to surrender and seek treatment.
Whether you are struggling with addiction or are already in recovery looking to grow, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone.
Topics Covered:
* The loss of identity as an athlete and the start of substance use.
* The rising danger of gambling accessibility through modern technology.
* Why “consequences” were actually the best thing to happen to him.
* The importance of uncovering secrets to begin the healing process.
* Navigating the “pendulum” of dopamine and finding stability in recovery.
If you or a loved one is suffering and you need professional advice, Brian is your guy.
