‘But many people live perfectly well with addictions – even in situations you wouldn’t expect, like heroin. If you can afford your addiction – in terms of money, time, and health – the chances are that even your closest friends will never know. The problems come when we can’t access the thing we need. That’s when people find out. I’m simplifying,’ he adds. ‘Generalising. But please don’t feel like you weren’t listening to her, weren’t watching out for Rachel. Addicts, in general, learn a lot of skills to hide their problem.’
