Brad's Redemption

I got hooked on him. And then, I mean, just like everybody does, right? It started with the pills. I got into doing cocaine, too. I was drinking. And then it just down the cycle over the next couple years. Got into doing heroin, and then I got into doing methadone. And when I was on the methadone program, I couldn't quit drinking. And I slowly lost everything. That 19. I got arrested again. That's when I had to plead guilty to the felony. I was either going to do a year in prison or I was going to plead guilty to the felony. Got put on felony probation. Now looking back at me telling this story, in my mind, it's going boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. I can piece it all together. I think it all boils down to, like. I thought it would just blow over. This whole thing, it's just a fad. I mean, everybody's drinking and partying. We're going to the pubs, we're hitting the college parties. Everything was good until it wasn't good. And when it wasn't good, I couldn't stop. And when things weren't good for my friends, they could stop. It got too much for them and they were able to shut it down. I was never able to shut it down. I just found a new Johnny and a new Joe to hang out with.
