“My goal is to eventually open a rehab where people aren’t traumatised at the end of their recovery and where the staff members are trusted, people.”
He added: “One of the many things I’ve learnt while struggling with addiction was that surrounding yourself with negative people will only bring you down.
“For that reason, this discord is meant to bring us all together and create a safe space where people can vent and help others through their tough times.”
