When you think of someone who is struggling with addiction, there is no set image of what to think. Just like everyone in the world, addicts have different upbringings and come from different walks of life.
The Dangers of Drug-Fueled Relationships

Where Did We Go Wrong?
I hope this story helps parents spot unhealthy signs in the event their child is moving towards addiction. If my story could change one life or prevent one addiction, that will be more than enough of a reward.
