A journey into and out of heroin addiction - Part 3

Life for lydia has got a lot worse since part 2. In this briefing we follow Lydia's life as it spirals down into prostitution and crack addiction. Her first foray into treatment has failed and things just seem to be getting worse and worse for her.

"I felt like I had been failed. I had put everything into treatment and trying to change, but nothing had worked. I couldn’t really see any way forward – I felt trapped in a vicious cycle. That was until I met a friend who told me about the amount of money I could make working on the streets."
