Information on Bryan Hullihen


By the time Bryan Hullihen was settled into his new school and making his way through the fourth grade Christmas had arrived. This was to be young Bryan Hullihen's first Christmas following his parents’ divorce and his mother did everything she could to make it a great one for him and his sister. Bryan remembers how he and his sister were so happy on that particular Christmas morning as they opened all of their gifts to realize they were given every single thing they asked for. The fact that their mother still was not earning a lot of money but somehow figured out how to provide for her children in such an extravagant way is testament to the love and support that Bryan and his sister knew as kids. Around 8:00 in the morning that Christmas the phone rang and Bryan knew in an instant something was wrong. His mother rushed into one of the bedrooms where she could be heard crying hysterically through the entire house. After several minutes Christine emerged calling Bryan and his sister Heather to join her in the living room. She began, "Everything is going to be okay but there has been an accident involving your father." The divorce had been particularly hard on Bryan's father where his drinking escalated as did the hours he worked to assuage the grief he felt from the loss of his family. His father attended a work party where, after not sleeping for over 24 hours, he consumed alcohol and attempted to drive home. Falling asleep at the wheel he drifted off the road and crashed causing him to be ejected from the vehicle. These details were spared from the young Bryan Hullihen that morning as they headed to the hospital to spend Christmas as a family in the Intensive Care Unit.

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 and his friends had been drinking all night while camping on an island when around midnight they had run out of beer. Not wanting the party to end Bryan took his friend’s boat back to the marina where his vehicle was parked and headed off to the store to buy more alcohol. Bryan ended up at the beach as his friend’s birthday party was ending and he hoped to catch his friend to wish him a happy ...

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...

Bryan Hullihen's intro to other drugs

Around this time Bryan Hullihen moved back to Jupiter Florida with his friend who's name was also Brian. Bryan rented a room from his friend's mother for a small amount of money that he paid each week. It was a good thing that it wasn't a lot of money because he didn't make much. Bryan got a job working for a landscaping company where he worked each day during the week and quickly proved his worth to the organization. At this point in Bryan's life he would not touch alcohol and truly believed his problem to solely be that concerning the use of alcohol which is exactly why he found it so easy to decide to start smoking pot again at twenty-one  years old. Every day Bryan went to work he would see so many of the people that he worked with smoking pot with seeming impunity and, with the belief that his problem was solely alcohol, he found easy to jump off that cliff one morning with the rest of his crew. That day was a breeze for Bryan as he recalls barely thinking abo...
