@abcnewsaus: Tim Bird, the lead singer in the Tasmanian band Last Word, is using his music to write about recovery from addiction. Tim told the hack podcast he used to be a poly substance drug user, meaning that there were times when he was using up to 10 different drugs in one night. He reckons that while Last Word has a great band culture, he’s seen a darker side in the wider music industry. You can check out Tim’s story about overcoming addiction and stigma on the hack podcast. And if you or someone you know needs help, the National Alcohol and Other Drug Hotline is there, on 1800 250 015. By Triple J Hack. #ABCNews #TripleJHack #MusicIndustry #Recovery
