Stu Goffman, the creator and executive producer of ADDICTION UNPLUGGED, an award winning A&E series, joins us and shares what he has learned from speaking with hundreds of people across America about addiction. He discovered addiction is not so much a choice as it is an escape mechanism (most addicts had severe trauma and not equipped to handle the emotions). ADDICTION UNPLUGGED tells the stories of recovery , second chances, and people helping people are both humbling and enlightening.
