EP 25 Dosed and Dependent: Prescription Drugs, Street Drugs, and Survival

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we sit down with Russell, who shares his raw and powerful story of how his battle with addiction began. What started as a legitimate need for prescribed pain medication to manage physical pain soon escalated into a dangerous dependency. Russell takes us through the moment things began to spiral out of control, as he started to abuse his prescription, leading him down a dark path of addiction. Through his candid and emotional recounting, we explore how easily the line between use and abuse can blur, the toll addiction took on his life, and his journey to recovery. This conversation sheds light on the often-hidden struggles of prescription drug addiction and the strength it takes to break free.
