Grinding Through Grief | Drew Westfield
Manage episode 447890323 series 2950640
Grief can take you to a dark place you never imagined, especially when it's wrapped in guilt. Drew spent a long time believing if he'd done more, his brother Mat might still be alive... As a teenager and an adult, Mat was often teetering on the edge, dealing with his inner turmoil by shutting down and keeping everyone out.
For more than a decade Drew knew something wasn't right with his brother, but couldn't penetrate the walls he put up.
Drew self-destructed after Mat's death, using drinking and drugs to numb himself into oblivion, with ugly consequences.
Finding purpose, deepening his connection with his mum and meeting his wife has made space for much brighter chapters in his story; all written down in his book, Until The End.
