Willie Cauley-Stein opens up about his struggles with addiction:
“I was doing 10, 15 of them b***** [Percocet] a day. They ended up being laced with the fentanyl… you’re gambling with your life every time you bust one down… but you then you on them. So now you need it. It wasn’t about pain no more, it was about escaping reality, dawg. My partner just got murdered by my other partner. My little brother passed away from an overdose. Grandpa dies. This is all in the same year. I went through like five deaths in my circle and I didn’t process not one of them cause I’m hooping. I’m trying to just go to sleep.”
