Showing results for "The Good Boy" in Health & Wellness

Murphy must be a good boy and listen to this whole podcast through and through in order to not bark. If he figures out it is just a recording of his favorite people talking, he might start barking. However, he doesn't understand technology because he is an old grandpa dog so that shouldn't be a problem.

David Sheff's story is a first: a teenager's addiction from the parent's point of view, a real-time chronicle of the shocking descent into substance abuse and the gradual emergence into hope.

Before meth, Sheff's son, Nic, was a varsity athlete, honor student, and award-winning journalist. After meth, he was a trembling wraith who stole money from his eight-year-old brother and lived on the streets. With haunting candor, Sheff traces the first warning signs, the attempts at rehabilitation, and, at last, the way past addiction. He shows us that, whatever an addict's fate, the rest of the family must care for one another, too, lest they become addicted to addiction.
