Nathan Perry started drinking in his 30s to mask problems in his relationship with his parents. Eventually, he realized he didn't have control over his alcohol use and he started a long road to recovery. With a lot of support from his family, Nathan has now been sober for 8 years. In this very personal episode, Nathan, his brother, Brad, and his sister-in-law, ICI Director Amy Hewitt, talk about their journey. We also hear from Mark Olson, a former supervisor of Nathan's. The family and Nathan candidly share the false starts and early mistakes made when navigating the intersection of substance use disorder and disability, as well as the lessons learned and the successes celebrated. Their articles in the latest issue of Impact are available here and here.
