Inside A Heroin Addict's BRUTAL Lifestyle
About this episode
In this gripping episode of Rise Above, Kim shares the unfiltered truth about life as an IV heroin addict — from shooting up daily to selling heroin alongside her own mother. Caught in a generational cycle of addiction, Kim’s story is unlike anything we’ve shared before.
She opens up about the codependent bond she shared with her mom, how they used and dealt drugs together, and the moment she knew she had to break away — not just to survive, but to finally live.
Now sober and rebuilding her life, Kim’s journey is a raw look at the brutality of addiction, the courage it takes to walk away from family, and the hope that recovery brings.
