“I’m literally rotting… there’s nothing I can think of that’s good in my life,” says Ashley, who smokes as many as 100 hits of heroin a day and is barely out of her teens. For eight months, ABC News producers followed Ashley and two other heroin abusers through the agony of addiction. Dylan, a rehab veteran, has three younger brothers who openly fear for his life. Justin is even more at risk: he struggles alone, thousands of miles away from his family. Meanwhile, with Ashley braving treatment for the first time, her parents must examine their own muddled roles as enablers and protectors. What may surprise some viewers is that these stories take place far from the inner city—they represent suburbia’s children, a demographic falling victim to substance abuse as never before.
