β€˜It was a given that I was going to take drugs at 13’

The presenter of a new 5 Live podcast about recovery has said it was β€œa given” that she was going to take drugs aged 13.

Jade Wye is one of two presenters on Hooked: The Unexpected Addicts, which recently won The Rachael Bland New Podcast Award.

In the first episode, now available on ΄σΟσ΄«Γ½ Sounds, Jade explained how even when she woke up from a coma, her first thought was about class A drugs.

Hooked: The Unexpected Addicts, which debunks the stereotype around addiction, is now available to download on ΄σΟσ΄«Γ½ Sounds.

You can find more information and support about addiction on the ΄σΟσ΄«Γ½ Action Line website.
