Opioid addiction has been on the rise for the past fifteen years. It affects almost everyone in society today, whether it be a friend, relative, or co-worker. However, for years the face of addiction was the personified junkie on the street corner or in a movie. The true face of the opioid epidemic can often be something entirely different. The guest on this bonus episode of the podcast steps out of the shadow to talk about his own addiction and how he is working to continue to get through it as he heads into his 20th stomach surgery.   Ray Morvan joins the podcast this week to shed some light on the real race of the opioid addiction before his most recent surgery. He also talks about how it has affected his family, his kids, and more.  This is a raw, open, and honest conversation about the state of the opioid addiction problem in the United States.    Show Sponsored by:  Four Sigmatic - http://www.foursigmatic.com Use code: DIYS to save 10% on your order   Mistobox Coffee Club - http://mbox.coffee/Y9FA Use Code: DIYS to save $10 on your subscription   Full Shownotes:  http://www.dirtinyourskirt.com Join the Facebook Group:  http://www.dirtinyourskirt.com/tribe Support the Show: http://www.dirtinyourskirt.com/support

#053 - Ray Morvan - On Facing Opioid Addiction Head on

Mortgage officer and part of a Vermont family maple sugaring business, Ray Morvan found extreme multi day racing at random, after a battle with alcohol and opiate addiction. By helping him find community and a way to exert and build mental resilience it’s exactly what the doctor ordered . He  went on to compete in nine Peak Death Races which is almost certainly a record. We spoke with him at the Spartan Winter Agoge. Morvan credits stoicism for getting through life challenges that would break a lesser man. He is now championing  the issue of addiction by assisting anyone who is willing to reach out to him. Morvan’s phone line is open.  Lessons:      1.    Figure it out. There’s always a way.     2.    Simply put yourself out there, everyday, and have faith that it will get better.     3.    In addition to PTSD think about PTSG - Post Traumatic Growth.   CREDITS Producer – Marion Abrams, Madmotion, llc. Hosts: Joe De Sena with Johnny Waite, Sefra Alexandra, Col. Tim Nye, Dr. Delle &amp; David Deluca Synopsis – Matt Baatz Copyright - 2016 Spartan
