Bath Salt Overdose, Crack Addiction & Kratom Relapse After 7 Years Sober | I Lost Everything

Bath Salt Overdose, Crack Addiction & Kratom Relapse After 7 Years Sober | I Lost Everything

Austin’s story is one of the most intense, raw, and honest recovery journeys ever shared on Rise Above. After 7 years sober, Austin relapsed—triggered by success, ego, and untreated trauma. What followed was a devastating downward spiral: 🔹 Crack, benzos, kratom, and gambling addiction 🔹 A near-fatal overdose at the Hard Rock Hotel 🔹 20 months running from his life in Mexico, embedded in cartel territory 🔹 Losing millions, his marriage, and himself 🔹 Multiple rehabs, jail, and starting over—again and again But this isn’t just a relapse story. It’s a redemption story. Austin opens up about trauma, pride, fatherhood, faith vs. spirituality, why kratom nearly destroyed him, and what finally changed after decades of trying to stay sober on his own terms. Today, he’s a present father of five, active in recovery, and the author of One Last Hit. This episode is a must-watch for anyone struggling with addiction, relapse, ego, success, or the belief that “this time will be different.” 👉 If relapse has ever been part of your story—or someone you love—this one will hit home. #RiseAbove #AddictionRecovery #RelapseStory #OverdoseSurvivor #HardRockHotel #KratomAwareness #CrackAddiction #SobrietyJourney #RecoveryIsPossible #12StepRecovery #Alcoholism #DrugAddiction #MentalHealthAwareness #TraumaHealing #Fatherhood #SecondChances #RedemptionStory #LifeAfterRelapse Learn more about your ad choices.
