Understanding the road to recovery

Often, the road to recovery is paved with many bumps along the way for recovering addicts. The chances of relapse are very subjective, as there are many factors that influence the strength of the addiction. For example, the type of drug, individual’s personality, family history, access to triggers and more all factor into whether or not a person will relapse or not, and how many times it will happen.

From an outsider’s perspective, it can be perplexing as to why a celebrity, who seems to have the world by its tail, would throw everything away to get high. What people didn’t see, though, was the battle that Darryl was fighting within.

Don’t Give Up on Me delves into what really happened in the Strawberry household as Darryl was growing up, and what was going through his head as he stepped into the pros. Doctors who specialize in mental health and addiction analyze what was really happening in Darryl’s mind, how he got so far into the throes of addiction, and his ultimate recovery.
