Blake Easley/Part 2 (In Recovery/Works in Recovery)

Send us Fan MailA California native, Blake Easley smoked marijuana in high school, then drank cough syrup to achieve a buzz (almost every day) until his mother found a stash of empty cough syrup boxes hidden in their house. She marched him over to the 99-cent store where he was buying the over-the-counter cold medication and made certain they would never sell her son cough syrup again. He moved on to other drugs and eventually into an active addiction so severe that it led to him living on the streets for many years. Today, he works in the field of recovery.
