The 31st of August is International Overdose Awareness Day. Overdose can affect anyone, and can occur at any time, with no warning. The purpose of the day is to provide a space for people to come together and remember anyone they have lost to overdose, share their own experiences and help break down the stigma around substance use.
We’re opening up this thread as a space for people to come together and share their stories and experiences, pay tribute to those they’ve lost and to offer support and comfort.
