I started using drugs at an early age cos I couldn’t understand why my older brother was willing yo sacrifice everything for drugs. I wanted to experience it for myself so at 14, I started using alcohol and marijuana, and shortly after progressed to mushrooms and ecstasy, and from there to cocaine and heroin. I made efforts to stop but I kept relapsing not until I met my partner who was a recovery coach who encouraged me to be sober and thus is my fourth year of sobriety.
