Episode #32 - Brandon Smoke: The Opioid Epidemic

Brandon is a former heroin addict who lives in rural Ohio. He
shares what it feels like to do heroin, stories about developing
and living with an addiction as a teenager, and how he ultimately
overcame his addiction 7 years ago. He describes the medical,
financial, and mental health barriers he continues to face as he
strives to put the past behind him. He also paints a picture of
what the opioid epidemic currently looks like in his small town
and speculates about why so many people are driven to abuse
opioids.
