Winnipeg woman developed addiction to meth in sober housing

Crazy Canadians –

Feb. 4, 2019 – Siddle was referred as a tenant by the Behavioural Health Foundation after she completed a six-month residential treatment for mental health issues and alcohol and pill use. She was one of the first people to sign a lease at the facility, and it wasn’t long before a drug dealer moved in, she said. She failed mandatory drug testing, which was part of the lease agreement, and entered detox for five days, she said. She was evicted after failing a second drug test. “I was angry and upset and I didn’t know what I was going to do and I felt disappointment,” she said. “It just made me want to use more.”
