In the first of a series of hard hitting interviews, Yank sits down with a gentleman, known as Sober Scouser online, to discuss how he fell into over a decade long spiral and battle with alcohol and drug addiction.
He talks in detail about how this battle has almost cost him everything in his life, including almost losing his own life during his battles.
Now, he wants to share his story, and how his renewed recovery is bringing him a new found desire to help others.
This story may include some topics that may be uncomfortable to listen to, but Real Life isn't always Rainbows & Unicorns.
