The High Cost of Anonymity

When Preston Moore was 12 years old he remembers gathering the All-Star team together before a big game and giving them a pep talk. When he played high school sports he was more of a hype man than a competitive athlete. He pretended to be the mayor in most situations, trying to get in good favor with everyone. On one hand, the ability to connect with people can be attributed to the fact that he is an extreme extrovert. On the other hand, and it took him a long time to see it, it could be due to an immense desire to be liked and people please everyone around him!
As far as addiction is concerned, Preston found it difficult to accept the fact that he was a drug addict and alcoholic. He was just doing what everyone else is doing. He would show up to work everyday, pay his own bills, and he was never sloppy or the one causing trouble.
If it wasn’t for four arrests in three years, he might still be fighting a battle today. His sobriety date is September 10, 2001, one month after his 21st birthday. Today his entire life revolves around being an advocate for counseling, therapy and support groups like AA, NA, Alanon, ACA and NAMI. He works in outreach for a mental health and addiction hospital, he hosts a podcast called The High Cost of Anonymity and is a speaker, trainer and a coach.
“I think the solution to normalizing mental health and addiction is by making coaching, counseling and other mental health and addiction supports as common as going to the gym, hiring a personal trainer or going to a group fitness class.”
