A peek into the lives of those suffering from addiction and their families.

A very honest look at living with addiction. Definitely inspires empathy for those who suffer from this deadly disease.

I don't think these people have the capacity to concent to be filmed.

Eye opening and sometimes heart-wrenching seeing real people struggle with addiction.

Great watch to understand what addiction actually does to individuals and families.

Not for everyone, but a good show that shows a glimpse of the far reaching impact addiction can have on people and others

It’s entertaining, but I don’t really like the concept of exploiting troubled people for a quick buck. But that’s capitalism I guess.

this show is so good but it can be very triggering for some

I like it because it helps others better understand addiction but at the same time it might be glorifying it. Still a good show though.

A great documentary-style show that walks you through the living nightmare of addiction. Humanizes addicts & shows that there is hope.
