Dallas Bragg quit meth after losing everything: his home, his freedom on the line. He argues high-functioning users can't quit without a real identity shift, not just losing stuff. He's recruiting ten men for a twelve-week coaching program.
Probably the number one question I get asked is, how did you stop? How I stopped was very easy because I had lost everything. I was homeless and I was going to either go to prison or stop using. So the decision for me was pretty simple when you hit that kind of rock bottom. For a lot of you though, you have a safety net. You're not— you're still high functioning. You're not about to lose your job. You're not about to lose your relationships. Consequences are not outweighing the pleasure yet. And so you're actually in a much tougher spot than many of us who hit a rock bottom. You have to make what I had to make finally was a final decision. Am I somebody who uses meth or am I somebody who doesn't? What is my identity? Who am I? How do I show up in this world? Because you cannot stop Because you're going to lose a friendship, or you're going to lose a job or your car. Because once you lose those things, it still isn't enough. Because you haven't made a final decision. This is not who I am anymore. And once you get there, that's when you'll stop. You don't have to have a rock bottom. If this sounds familiar to you and you want to make that final decision, why don't you join our next group coaching? It's 12 weeks, 10 men. And we're going to meet once a week for 2 hours, and we will help you develop a vision that will allow you and enable you to decide who I am right now. The group begins at the end of this month. Just comment group and we'll send you an application.
