THE WIRE’S Bubbles: How do you help an addict? – SHRINK THE BOX
Ben and Nemone discuss The Wire’s ‘Bubbles’ aka Reginald Collins. An informant and heroin user, a man with a fragile support network who finds himself stranded while trying to forge closer bonds with those around him. Nemone tells Ben how unconditional love is the hardest thing to give an addict, and the key to helping them start their journey to sobriety. Plus we hear wisdom from Gabor Maté. Our episode on the Queen’s Gambit has great insights into addiction if you’re looking for even more on this subject. We talked about AA, Al Anon and Samaritans in the show. Here are links: AA: https://www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk/ Al Anon: https://al-anonuk.org.uk/ Samaritans: https://www.samaritans.org/ We want to hear about any theories we might have missed, what you’ve thought of the show so far and your character suggestions.
