My Heroin Addiction Nearly Killed Me - Now I'm TikTok Famous | BRAND NEW ME

SAMMY was just 16 years old when he first tried heroin.

He'd had a normal teenage life - having fun with friends, drinking and occasionally smoking marijuana - but it all changed when a friend introduced him to a 'hard drug'.

Over the course of the next 10 years Sammy became addicted and tried many different drugs until they were on his mind 24/7.

He was regularly "smoking heroin before class" and felt that he "had to get high every day".

Sammy spent years in and out of rehab until he nearly died from an overdose - he "was ready to die a junkie".

Fortunately his mum found him and he was hospitalised, saving his life.

Now Sammy is two and a half years clean, has graduated from university and is sharing his story on his popular TikTok account, a platform that enabled him to start a support group for recovering addicts all over the world.

He's meeting up with his friend Kevin - the same friend that first introduced him to heroin - to discuss their sobriety journeys and how much happier they are today.

Sammy used to blame Kevin for his addiction and "resented" him for it, but now they are closer than ever.
