Following Bryan Hullihen’s matriculation to private school and his subsequent improvement in his grades he began to make friends in his new school. Being that Bryan was attending a school where tuition was required many of the children that attended this institution came from wealthy families. Up to this point in Mr. Hullihen’s life he had no understanding of socioeconomic differences and had little exposure to people of wealth. One thing that Bryan understood was that there were different ways of behaving with the children he went to school with and the children whom he played with at home in his neighborhood. The children at Bryan Hullihen’s school were well behaved and talked through their differences where back in Bryan’s neighborhood the opposite was the case. In a very real way at only eight years old Bryan learned how to be two people. In school he was interested in learning how to associate with people of means and at home he had to learn how to be tough and handle himself physically. This dichotomy had a profound effect on Bryan where instead of creating confusion for the young child it actually increased his confidence. When Bryan realized that he could perform well across social constructs and his self confidence was subsequently increased he began to earn more friends through getting involved in several social activities and not being afraid to try new things. Bryan began to learn how to surf, skateboard, play football and baseball, ride BMX bicycles and many other activities that made it easy for him to make friends. He also maintained good grades and took his education seriously which helped round out his personality overall.

Informational Story about Bryan Hullihen

For several more years Bryan Hullihen continued to experiment with drugs and drink alcohol while his behavior became increasingly more unstable due to his continued substance abuse. Bryan spent most of his time during this phase of his life with his girlfriend, his stepbrother, and his stepbrother’s girlfriend. Although Bryan was only 17 he drank more alcohol than most 21-year olds and he lived his life as if it were a perpetual party. The beginning of the end for this way of life for the young Mr. Hullihen occurred one night while camping with those who Bryan spent most of his time with.

Bryan Hullihen starts telling his own story

Up until this point my story it has been lived by me and delivered to you in writing by somebody else due to the fact that I have been in prison for several years following a relapse. For a while I considered allowing that person to continue to write my story for me, however, I feel that a story is best told by the person who lived it. By this time in my life I was completely defeated and was willing to do whatever I needed to do in order to stop suffering so I entered into the treatment facility that my sister got me into with a level of humility that I hadn't felt in a long time. I fought against myself for far too long and I was done fighting. When I arrived at the treatment facility it was a whirlwind of questions and intake procedures so by the time it was all finished I was exhausted and soon after being given some detox medications I was out for the count for several hours. When I woke up the next day I was directed to a group that was filled with firefighters as this was j...
