Ask Erin: Surviving Heroin, Hidden Relapses & Cancer | Sober Spill Ep.51

In this episode of Sober Spill, Isabel sits down with Erin Khar, author of Strung Out and founder of advice column "Ask Erin", to talk about how addiction can begin long before anyone realizes it. Erin opens up about hiding a $1,000-a-day heroin habit from her family and fiancé, what it was like to overdose with no Narcan, secretly relapse while collecting sobriety milestones, and how harm reduction saved her life before she could save herself. Erin also gets candid about her recent diagnosis and navigating suicidal ideation while raising children. A deeply human conversation about survival, shame, and what recovery really looks like when nobody's watching. #SoberSpillPodcast #MentalHealthPodcast #StrungOut #SoberPodcast #AddictionRecovery #ErinKhar #RecoveryPodcast
