ABOUT THIS EPISODE
David Deane Haskell joins Breaking Mental Health with Darrell to discuss addiction, trauma, recovery, shame, grief, and the long process of learning how to live again.
David’s memoir, Wounded Angels, comes from his own lived experience and explores healing without reducing it to a neat success story. His perspective is rooted in vulnerability, creativity, and the understanding that recovery can be messy, complicated, and deeply personal.
In this conversation, we explore the difference between surviving and actually living, how writing can become part of the healing process, and what it means to face difficult parts of your story without allowing them to define your entire future.
The Wounded Angels audiobook is out now. I narrated it myself, and it's live on Audible, Apple Books and the rest. Here’s the link:
