I think he got scared, for whatever reason I don't know. Even when you think that you are like on top shape, then you should be going on meetings even more. You can't change the fact that you're an addict, but they are tools and ways to treat your addiction.
Ever wondered how addiction can shatter lives? In this emotional episode of 'Dopey', host Dave grapples with the tragic overdose and death of his co-host, Chris. This episode isn't just another tale of debauchery and recovery; it's a raw and heart-wrenching look at the final days of someone caught in the relentless grip of addiction. Dave revisits the beginning and end of 'Dopey', reflecting on how he missed the signs that Chris was using again.
Adding depth to this sorrowful narrative, Chris's girlfriend Annie shares her perspective on living with Chris during his final days. She offers her theories on what led to his relapse and untimely death, painting a vivid picture of the chaos and heartbreak that addiction can bring. This episode serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact addiction has not only on those who suffer from it but also on their loved ones.
It's a call to action for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, urging them to seek help before it's too late.
