What happens when DFACS shows up at your door — and you’re already fighting to stay sober?

In this powerful addiction recovery story, Wade shares his personal experience with DFACS (Division of Family & Children Services) from a father’s point of view. He had been working hard in recovery, trying to rebuild his life and keep his family together. But when DFACS became involved, the pressure, fear, and uncertainty pushed him into relapse.

This episode explores the emotional toll that child protective services cases can have on parents in recovery — especially fathers who are trying to change while under investigation and scrutiny. Wade opens up about shame, stress, relapse, and the fight to keep his family intact.

Today, his family is still together — and his story shows both the fragility and resilience of recovery under pressure.

If you or someone you love is navigating addiction recovery, custody challenges, or DFACS involvement, this conversation offers honesty, hope, and understanding from someone who lived it.
