When Do Drug and Alcohol Addictions Start?

When Do Drug and Alcohol Addictions Start?

When does occasional or recreational use become an addiction? In this video, we meet people who reveal their 'turning point', & how they turned their life around. Subscribe to 'Grounded' https://7news.link/Grounded Australia has had a long and, at times, difficult history with alcohol… and drugs. Booze is part of our social fabric. Drugs are widely available, often cheap, and used by many Australians. For most, use is occasional, recreational. But what happens when that use becomes more frequent? Is there a turning point for addiction? In this documentary, we hear from those who know what that turning point is. And how they come back from it. We begin with ‘Jack’. He’s asked to keep his identity hidden. And you’re about to find out why. He is sharing his story, so that others can learn from it.

Molly's Story. A family tragedy leads to a new approach to grieving | Linda Goldspink-Lord Interview

Molly's Story. A family tragedy leads to a new approach to grieving | Linda Goldspink-Lord Interview

It was just an average Wednesday.  After dispensing with their chores, 13-year-old Molly Lord and her sister Emily, 10, ventured as normal onto the family’s NSW farm. The pair hopped onto quad bikes, an everyday activity as they sought to get around the Illawara property. Their mum Linda Goldspink-Lord glanced at the youngsters before knuckling down to her daily to-do list. Tragically, it would be the last time she saw Molly alive. Just moments later, Linda received the phone call that would change her life forever - Molly had been in an accident. Ten years on, Linda tells My Big Story how this ordinary Wednesday turned out to be the most haunting day of her life.  And she will forever tell Molly’s story - and how the family “crawled” through their grief - in the hope their tragic experience can help other bereaved parents. At the time of Molly’s tragic death, Linda hated being thrust into the public eye.  But 10 years on, the youngster’s story is helping grieving parents all around the country.  For more information or to buy Crawling Through The Darkness, head to https://lindagoldspinklord.com/ 'My Big Story' is a digital documentary series, produced by 7NEWS Australia.

Ukraine’s Two Years of War: The fight for aid, arms and attention | Full Documentary

Subscribe and set 🔔 » https://7news.link/YTSubscribe | February 24, 2024. Two years to the day since Vladimir Putin launched his invasion of Ukraine. For the first year, the world watched on as Russian forces grappled with an opponent they seemingly underestimated. The Ukrainians proved they would not give up their sovereignty without a fight. With aid from the West, Ukraine held the Russian forces, and gained back ground. On the second anniversary we look back at the last 12 months. It was the battles away from the fronts that would truly test the resolve of both sides. It was a year of fighting for aid and for armaments. Fighting for the world’s attention as another conflict would draw their eyes. And fighting to survive - as in-fighting threatened to bring an end to Putin’s reign Written and Produced by Stefan Mitchell & Nick Gane Associate Producer: Nick Gane Edited by Nick Gane Reporting by: Chris Reason, Hugh Whitfeld, Geof Parry, Sarah Greenhalgh Additional Reporting by: Mark Riley and Tim Lester For the latest Australian news and breaking news alerts, connect with 7NEWS online: Visit » https://7news.com.au 7NEWS Podcast » http://smarturl.it/7NewsDaily Facebook » https://www.facebook.com/7NewsAustralia Twitter » https://twitter.com/7NewsAustralia Instagram » https://www.instagram.com/7newsaustralia/ 7NEWS combines the trusted and powerful news brands including Sunrise, The Morning Show, The Latest, and 7NEWS.com.au, delivering unique, engaging and continuous coverage on the issues that matter most to Australians.

Australia's Boxing Ballerina breaking all stereotypes | Harry Garside interview | Grounded

Aussie boxer Harry Garside is progressing in leaps and bounds after his eyebrow-raising ballet move. The Australian Olympian is taking the fight to boxing stereotypes. Subscribe to 'Grounded' » https://7news.link/Grounded His movement inside the ring is impeccable, and rising Australian boxing star Harry Garside (2-0) says his time doing ballet has supercharged his fighting style. After mustering up the courage in 2019, the bronze winning Olympian took up the art form, which he believes has helped polish the boxing skills that will eventually see him become a world champion. In particular, the 24-year-old Australian lightweight champion says the physicality and control of ballet has helped him develop significantly. Skills he gets to show off again on Wednesday, May 11 when he defends his Australian lightweight title against Layton McFerran (5-1) in Newcastle. “Ballet for me has definitely helped a lot. Any form of dance does,” Harry Garside told 7NEWS.com.au. Written and Presented by Harry Thomson. Filmed and Edited by Nick Gane.
