I Started Shooting Heroin as a Teen | Overdosed & Flatlined at 18, Homeless to Sober at 19

This episode of Rise Above with Kevin Lanning is one of the most intense, raw, and powerful stories we’ve ever shared. Jana began using painkillers at 14 years old, progressed to shooting heroin daily, and by 18 was homeless, blacklisted by drug dealers, and clinically dead after an overdose so severe she left her body. In this interview, Jana shares: Growing up in chaos and trauma Dating dangerous drug dealers as a teenager Shooting heroin, meth, and crack A near-death experience where she watched herself turn blue Being told she had to return to her body Surviving homelessness, addiction, and overwhelming survivor’s guilt Getting sober at 19 years old Using methadone and Suboxone when few believed in medication-assisted recovery Rebuilding her nervous system, faith, and identity Losing her younger brother to suicide And building a life today filled with purpose, discipline, love, and freedom Jana now has 14 years sober and lives a life rooted in honesty, movement, faith, and service. This is not just a story about addiction— It’s a story about why people use, how trauma lives in the body, and what it really takes to stay sober. If you or someone you love is struggling, this episode could save a life. #RiseAbove #HeroinAddiction #RecoveryStory #AddictionRecovery #NearDeathExperience #SobrietyJourney #OpiateEpidemic #MentalHealth #TraumaHealing #MethadoneRecovery #SuboxoneRecovery #HomelessToHope #SoberLife #HealingJourney #SecondChances Learn more about your ad choices.
