The life, failures, and turmoil of an opioid addict and his family

Unbelievable!This man kept journals of everything thing he did and how he felt as he was struggling with a prescription drug addiction. I was so amazed by the simple way he first got hooked, the drug intake he recorded, the lengths he went to to mask his condition, and the incredible lack of help this amazing young man and his loving family had. This film really opens up the honest reality of the whole opioid addiction epidemic happening in the US. I would suggest everyone in law enforcement, working in healthcare, and with children watch this eye opener. You will be shocked and moved to tears. Such a shame... In addition to the content, the filming was superb--interviews, old- footage, artistic effects, and comprehensive collection of photos kept the story line moving without any slow sections and with creativity.
