My life's mission now, I think, is to tell my story, um to the world and to address pornography as something that we need to be more educated about as a society, because pornography is a very poisonous thing, uh, to what it does to the mind, and- and gambling is something that I I think you know. Uh, that is something that needs to be addressed more and more.
Stephen D.'s life was a whirlwind of addiction, starting from a young age when he was first exposed to drugs, gambling, and sexuality without any proper guidance.
