About this episode
Behind every addiction lies a root cause — for many of our teens, drugs offer an "escape" or a way to feel like they're taking back control from their parents. In today's episode, Mark speaks with two more Heartlight teens, including a young man who opens up about his battle with drug addiction, the challenges of intensive outpatient programs and finding a healthier path to sobriety with his family's support. It wasn't until he addressed the pain behind his addiction that he found recovery. Listen in now!
