How You Can Misuse Anything Externally to Fill a Void Internally

After more than a decade on a merry-go-round, nine long-term treatment visits wondering if he would ever get it right, Bill Nielsen realized that we can misuse anything externally to fill a void internally. Drugs and alcohol are merely symptoms.  


"No more Band-aids on bullet wounds." This was a statement made by today’s guest, Bill Nielsen. He will share his years of experience as a high-functioning and high-performing sales representative while using substances to cope with stress.

Each Year Over 125,000 Americans Die from Overdose and Suicide Combined

Each year, over 125,000 Americans die from overdose and suicide combined. And this is NOT even the other causes of death related to substance misuse.

They are our friends, our neighbors, our family members. They go to our churches, eat next to us at our favorite restaurants. They talk to us through our favorite podcasts. And these deaths are completely preventable.

Jay Shifman is a Mental Health and Substance Misuse & Recovery Speaker, Coach, and Advocate, and the host of the Choose Your Struggle podcast. 

Jay has been in recovery for ten years and survived multiple suicide attempts and an overdose.
