He shares that he never really got "hooked" until a sports injury that resulted in an opiate prescription that he abused. He shares that he was able to overcome that with some support & help. Cy shares a very vulnerable time in his life when he lost both of his parents in a tragic plane crash. "It's a big event, it's an event that shapes me, & this is an addiction podcast but it shapes me & I still don't know why it shapes me so severely. It's been twenty years now & even just talking about it right now it shakes me"-Cy Hirsche. This led to years of alcohol abuse. Cy finishes by talking about his treatment episodes & how he eventually started his own intervention business which caters to a lot of the Hollywood clientele. Cy shows incredible vulnerability & his rapport with Dr. Sellers makes this an increasable episode. We hope you enjoy it!
