Matt sits down with Ambrose, a prominent figure in the recovery community, to explore his remarkable journey from severe substance misuse to recovery and advocacy. Ambrose shares his harrowing experience with various substances, including alcohol, cannabis, ecstasy, LSD, amphetamines, temazepam, diazepam, and heroin.
Ambrose recounts his early struggles with substance misuse as a coping mechanism for social awkwardness, leading to life behind bars and deep despair, including relationship breakdowns and suicidal thoughts. His story highlights the complexities of addiction, the significance of personal responsibility, and the journey toward regaining control over one's life.
A pivotal part of his recovery was the peer support he received, which played a crucial role in his return to health and stability. Ambrose’s current work with the Hepatitis C Trust underscores his dedication to helping others, as he educates and supports individuals in their recovery, with a goal of eliminating the virus by 2030.
The Believe in People Podcast explores addiction, recovery and stigma.
