Listen now
Description
Johnny had a choice and in 2017 he either took a bottle of vodka and lived only for a few more years or he could lift the phone and ask for help. He had gotten to an all time low, and for him, seemed he had lost everything. with a glimmer of hope he reached out for help and found great support from HURT (have Your Tomorrows) the counselling service he use there and how they were able to help him find somewhere to get his rehab and finally get sober. Johnny gives us a brief look into his life and what it was like living with an addiction and how it almost took his life. His message is "don't be afraid to ask for help and for any loved ones who are concerned about a family member with an addiction, should be honest  and supportive." The person with the addiction doesn't realise they're hurting anyone else... Johnny has managed to rebuild those relationships which is his biggest accomplishment.
