800-801: Overcoming Opiate Addiction – Graham

Continuing our Mormon Stories series on drug addiction, we interview Graham.  In this interview, Graham discusses:

  • His early years as a true-believing Mormon
  • His battle with Cystic Fibrosis and chronic pain as a youth
  • Being introduced to drugs as a teen
  • Attending BYU and making the decision to leave and not pursue a full-time mission
  • How difficult events in his life led to his addiction to “hard drugs” as a young adult, and his recovery attempts
  • Graham’s current views on addiction and the recovery process

We thank Graham for providing his experience-based insight into the difficult process of recovery to all of our listeners.
