Heroin and Painkillers

America’s prescription drug and heroin problem has grown to epic
proportions. Across the country, families – many in middle class
and affluent neighborhoods - have lost loved ones. Others may
have a child, brother or sister who’s actively using, or fighting
to beat their habit.


In this podcast you'll hear from "Eric," a 26 year old recovering
addict who started using hard drugs as a teenager. He shares his
story of being in and out of rehab three times, and achieving
three years of sobriety before he started using again a few
months ago.


You'll also hear from Dr. Constance Scharff, director of
addiction research at the Cliffside
Malibu treatment center and author of
"Ending Addiction for Good." She will explain
how this drug epidemic got started, who is getting addicted and
how easy it can be to get hooked.
