Elizabeth struggled with her mental health as a teenager. Depression eventually led to substance use as a way to cope with her emotions.
“Once I got to college, I was using drugs and alcohol on a regular basis,” Elizabeth says. “I would put on a smile. I would do anything possible to make people think that I was okay.”
Elizabeth received residential treatment for addiction at Rogers.
“It planted a seed that I had a future without drugs or alcohol,” she shares.
Her treatment team was able to help her identify the mental health struggles at the root of her substance use.
“I don’t think I would have made it without addressing my mental health,” she explains.
Today, Elizabeth runs a business to inspire and encourage others who are struggling. She wants people to know that there is hope.
“You deserve to get help,” she says. “You’re worth it.”
