Sean’s DXM Story

Sean was introduced to DXM binges through friends and couldn't walk the first time he tried it. In his abuse, he didn't care about anyone else and felt invincible. Sean broke into cars and committed other serious crimes that landed him in jail. Today he regrets hurting everyone, especially his mother. Sean is now in recovery, but still avoids triggers like drug stores.
