Sep 29, 2026
Tomah, Wisconsin Sep 29, 2026 (Issuewire.com) - Author, speaker, and addiction recovery advocate Jason Creery shares his extraordinary journey of resilience, redemption, and hope in his powerful memoir, Breaking the Chains: A True Story of Addiction, Pain, and Redemption.
Drawing from decades of lived experience, Creery offers readers an honest and deeply personal account of his journey through childhood trauma, substance abuse, homelessness, incarceration, depression, and despair and ultimately toward healing, faith, and lasting recovery.
From Addiction to Recovery
For 30 years, Jason Creery struggled with intravenous drug use and alcoholism. His battle with addiction was accompanied by depression, homelessness, incarceration, and repeated stays in institutions beginning in 1998.
Yet his story did not end there.
Through Breaking the Chains, Creery opens about the experiences that shaped his life and the difficult path that eventually led him toward recovery and a renewed sense of purpose.
Rather than presenting recovery as an easy or straightforward journey, Creery writes from lived experience, offering an honest perspective on the pain, struggles, and hope that can accompany the road to healing.
A Message for Those Still Struggling
Creery was inspired to write the book with a clear purpose: to reach people who are still struggling with addiction and remind them that recovery is possible.
"To help others still in addiction see that we can recover and that life on this side is nothing short of a God miracle."
His message extends beyond individuals battling addiction. Through his story, Jason hopes to encourage families affected by substance abuse and anyone who may be searching for hope after experiencing some of life's darkest moments.
His mission is simple but powerful: to remind readers that no matter how broken the past may seem, freedom and transformation are possible.
Sharing Hope Through His Story
Jason has continued to share his experiences and message of recovery through podcast appearances, connecting with audiences and opening conversations about addiction, recovery, and personal transformation.
His previous promotional appearances include:
- Recovery Couch Podcast with True Story Media
- Unexpected Journeys with Stacey Commer
- 30 Minutes of Fame with Dave Murphy and Amanda Panchuk
- Encompassed Purpose
Through these conversations and his writing, Creery continues to use his lived experience to encourage others to believe that a different future is possible.
