Have you ever wanted to know what a heroin addict is thinking that keeps them stuck in that cycle of use? Do you wish you could help them, but not risk enabling? Are you struggling with your own drug use and want hope for how to get out of that lifestyle - and stay out?

In last week's "Stop Feeding the Predators", Lynn asks the questions you've wanted to ask. Justin, an addict for 5 years, gives the answers. In this blunt and honest show, Justin shares his thoughts before and during drug use. He talks about the people he loves and what they did that helped - and things that made it worse. He tells his story about being in prison. He also explains exactly what it took for him to find his sobriety and change his life for the better.
