Have you ever been an addict?
Do you know someone who is an addict?
How does that label, "Addict", make you feel?
When most people think of addicts, they almost automatically think of drugs and alcohol since it's the most common. Did you know that you can be addicted to porn, to working, to self-gratification, cutting, social media, and many more. Addictions come in many forms.
In this episode, Michaela Canterbury talks about her sister's battle with opioid addiction which turned into heroine, and much worse. She tells a POWERFUL story of actually going to a house where addicts can go to get high or fullfill desires, and found herself surrounded by needles, and hopelessness. Listen to this episode to find out how this story ends; it will blow your mind!
