Cocaine psychosis and nights under the Atlantic City boardwalk

David Millar's drinking and cocaine use as a teenager escalated into psychosis, psychiatric hospitals and homelessness.

David Millar's substance use started with teenage drinking and cocaine and escalated fast. He explains what cocaine psychosis actually feels like from the inside.

It took him through psychiatric hospitals and into homelessness, sleeping beneath the boardwalk in Atlantic City. He is honest about how far down it went before anything changed.

We talk about relapse prevention, rebuilding his family relationships, running as a tool for growth, and why he believes anyone trying to get out has to learn to accept the discomfort that comes with change.
