Podcast: Get a Grip PodcastPublished On: Mon Feb 02 2026
Description: Sy Saqfelhait’s story is one of loss, survival, and ultimately redemption. Born with deep roots in Palestine, Sy spent years caught in the grip of Xanax addiction—so long that he describes it as losing nearly a decade of his life to a fog of missing memories. Entire chapters of his past are gone, erased by dependency and relapse, leaving him to piece together who he was and how far he’d fallen.Time and time again, Sy would flee back to Palestine in an attempt to get sober, hoping distance, culture, and family could save him. For a while, it worked. But each return to America pulled him back into the same patterns, the same triggers, and the same relapse that kept him stuck in a cycle he couldn’t seem to break. The tug-of-war between two worlds mirrored the war inside himself—wanting freedom while being chained to addiction.Everything changed when sobriety finally stuck. This time, Sy didn’t just quit using—he rebuilt his entire life from the ground up. Today, he stands as a sober, driven entrepreneur, owning and operating his own successful roofing company. What was once a life ruled by pills and lost time is now defined by discipline, purpose, and accountability.In this powerful episode, Sy opens up about blacked-out years, the pain of repeated relapse, the struggle of identity between two countries, and what it truly took to break free for good. His story is a raw reminder that no matter how much time addiction steals, recovery can still give you a future worth fighting for.🔥 Expect emotion. Expect truth.
