Share Your Story About Heroin and Opioid Addiction

By

Chris Amico

February 19, 2016

As heroin and opioid abuse has spiked in the last few years, conversations about addiction have moved out of the shadows.

On Tuesday, in Chasing Heroin, FRONTLINE goes inside the worst drug epidemic in U.S. history, tracing the lives of addicts, investigating Big Pharma’s unprecedented push to popularize opioid painkillers, and examining radical new approaches to fighting the problem.

We want to hear about your personal experience, however you’ve been affected. We invite you to share your story below, and we’ll continue the conversation about the growing opioid crisis in the coming weeks.
