Paddy Gleason struggled with an addiction to heroin and pain pills for many years. Paddy was attracted to the lifestyle from an early age and it gave Paddy a feeling of belonging.   Everything changed for Paddy on November 11th, 2011, a drug deal went wrong although a drop in the bucket to Paddy it changed everything. Since getting clean Paddy has moved up the ranks in the paintball world to play at the professional level with the Seattle Thunder.  He shared that addiction is very prevalent in the sport and shared his story to inspire others to see that recovery is possible.  Paddy is a lighthouse for those still stuck in the grips of addiction and this is his story on the sober motivation podcast.
