    I hope your aim is achieved in preventing others from going down this route, you and your family and friends deserve all the praise in the making of this documentary series, not only is it incredibly brave on all sides but its also a topic with a lot of emotions from wider public and often of a negative stance, being able to show things from the family side is a strong message to all. Congratulations on having the strength to do so, your mum would be proud

    This has hit me hard🥺 You are incredible for raising awareness about something so personal and heartbreaking. My brother suffered a drug addiction for 13 years and it broke our family. We are lucky enough to still have him here with us today after numerous close calls but I know others aren’t so lucky and it breaks my heart 🥺 I can’t imagine how awful this must have been for you and your family. It proves the affects drug addiction can have on not only the individual but the family that have to cope❤️‍🩹

    This is so close to my heart, I lost my dad in 2016 and he had a long history of a drug and alcohol addiction for 25 years. It really did affect my childhood just like I can imagine it affects any child. So inspiring for this to be openly spoken about as I haven’t come across this on CZcams before 💖
