Today, we have a very special guest, Steve Mervish, Director of Drugsline Education, who bravely shares his personal journey with addiction to painkillers. He sheds light on his struggles, relationships, and how drug misuse impacted his life.

Steve's candid discussion allows us to gain valuable insights into the challenges of drug misuse, not only from a professional standpoint but also from a deeply personal one. His story reminds us of the importance of empathy and understanding in addressing this critical issue.

As we delve into the conversation, our co-host, a university student, shares their perspective on drug use among young people, with a particular focus on cannabis. They highlight how cannabis plays a significant role in the lives of many students, and the difficulties they face with the inevitable come downs.

Through this intergenerational dialogue, we aim to bridge the gap between different age groups, fostering a better understanding of how drug misuse affects both young and older individuals. By acknowledging these experiences, we hope to contribute to the ongoing conversation about drug misuse and pave the way for informed and compassionate solutions.
