Episode 49 - Jay Shifman - From Facing Addiction To Inspiring Others To Choose Their Struggle Wisely

This is Episode 49 of the VulnerABLE Podcast! At a young age he was put on medication to deal with his ADHD, but it would only lead to addiction issues later on. Now he's sharing his story to keep others from heading down the same path he once did! As a pre-teen his parents sent him to therapy, which unfortunately would end up leading to addiction years later. He was diagnosed like many other kids of his generation with ADHD, and by 11 years old he was already on his first medication. At one point in time he had a backpack full of medication, and was taking handfuls of pills. It would lead to a suicide attempt, and then spending time in a long-term care facility. From there he ended up at his grandparents to withdraw from all the drugs he was taking because he decided he was done with it all. Now he’s a speaker telling his story of issues with mental health, substance misuse and recovery, as well as the host of the Choose Your Struggle podcast. He wants to do his part in ending the stigma around mental health, and help others avoid struggles with medication like he once did.
