Sober Adrenaline Junkies - The Origin

Sober adrenaline junkies…

This journey is to bring light to people struggling with mental health issues and poor coping mechanisms. A little about myself I started having an unhealthy relationship with alcohol when I was 18. I jumped right into a career where it was normal to just go back to the hotel and tie one on every night. Who I am personality wise, I tend to take everything to the extremes. I ended up at a cross roads where I had to choose either sobriety, jail or even worse, death. With the help of a few very special amazing people in my life I was able to find help to get sober and was provided the tools to stay sober.

All that being said, I feel like the least I can do is share my story and help people who can’t have “just one”. Some people like myself have a beer and that one turns into a week long bender and very poor decisions. The profits made will be going to people who need help but can’t afford it. In this world a man is taught from a young age that we don’t talk about mental health we just go to work and deal with it. I want to help break that cycle and give everyone a place to talk about it and get the help they need if they want it.

Once an addict kicks one habit the addiction changes to something else and mine has been anything that can get my heart pounding and get adrenaline running through my entire body. I find it at the dunes with all my friends that are family. If you or anyone you know are struggling that wants help please reach out. My wife Taryn knows the opposite side of it and can help sharing her story with watching someone you love battle addiction. It’s not easy to talk about but it needs to be. I wish I would have gotten help sooner, however I know everything happens for a reason and now I love the person I am and look forward to every day!
