Shantells Long Walk To Treatment

Shantell wants to be the best mum she can be. But when you have two kids and must travel 400km to get the treatment you need, down days can be hard. She shares her story on how drugs changed the person she was and the long walk to treatment she had to take to get the help she needed.

“I really want to get off drugs. I don’t want to feel like this anymore”
