David's story

My name is David & I am an addict. My addiction has been with me from a very early age, even before I picked up my first drug, my behaviours were completely off the wall. Now I have been in recovery for several years I have discovered that it’s all about my behaviours and that my drug-taking was just a symptom of that.
