In Part 2 of our Addiction episodes we'll focus in on the tragedy of Matthew Perry's journey with addiction, which recently ended with his unfortunate passing from an overdose after decades of grappling with substance abuse.
Dr. Karen and Josh will discuss many aspects of his battle as depicted in his recent memoir, "Friends, Lover, and the Big Terrible Thing" which he wrote shortly before his death. His case was one of extremes, and his story hopefully will provide insight into how complex addiction can be and how it can have a long and devastating affect on those we care about who suffer from addiction.
Should you or anyone you know need help with addiction, we encourage you to seek more information and support from these or other resources:
