Like many 18-year-olds, Jeremy Rivers had been dealing with social anxiety for years by the time he got to the end of high school. But his problems melted away this June when he tried his first 7-OH pill.
Join Jason Lachance and Flindt Andersen as they discuss a "teen story" out of "San Francisco" while diving into the complexities of "alcohol" and "drug abuse". They emphasize the importance of "family relationships" during "addiction" and the road to "recovery".7-OH, which is short for 7-hydroxymitragynine, is a powerful opioid related to the drug kratom that’s often sold in candy-flavored pills. Rivers first noticed 7-OH at a gas station five minutes away from his family’s Bay Area house and bought it out of curiosity. Immediately hooked, he returned the following day for more. Within three months, he had spent over $5,000 on 7-OH, as he quickly developed a tolerance and had to take more and more to get the relief he was looking for, and was in a deep stage of addiction. He had gotten accepted into a state university in California, but on the day in September he was supposed to start his freshman year, his parents dropped him off at rehab instead of a dorm.
