The Ice Age

Luke Williams was a freelance journalist researching addiction to crystallised methamphetamine (commonly known as crystal meth or ice) when the worst possible thing happened: he became addicted himself. Over the next three months, he was seduced by the drug and descended into psychosis. Luke joins Tim, Dean and Ben on Hide and Seek to discuss his ordeal and experience with the drug that almost claimed his life.
