WONDERFUL AUDIO –
July 16, 2023 – Bush, a peer advocate for people in recovery, recounted his “rock bottom” before a crowd at the second Recovery Speaks event at Nick’s Ride 4 Friends in Auburn Saturday. Over 60 people were gathered outside the addiction recovery nonprofit as different speakers talked about recovery and related subjects.
Telling the attendees he had tried to recover on his own for years only to reach the same results, Bush said he had been dealing with addiction for 20 years back in 2013. At that point he had been in and out of recovery for a few years, getting stable before returning into the world and falling into the same habits. His breaking point came that October, when he was living with his parents.
