A Taste Of Honey - The Beginnings of Addiction

A Taste of Honey — The Beginning of Addiction

In this deeply personal first episode of Third Eye Dry, Finn O'Bryan shares the raw beginnings of his journey with addiction. From childhood obsessions and early experimentation with cigarettes and alcohol, to the first escape found in ketamine - a substance that offered a brief, dissociative refuge from anxiety, trauma, and the pressures of growing up.

Listen as Finn recounts how party culture evolved into a reclusive dependency, with ketamine becoming a constant companion through anxious days and lonely nights. From hiding in a sound cupboard at college to choosing drugs over family, this episode reveals the pain, the losses, and the romanticized myth of addiction versus the harsh reality of decline.

But this is not just a story about falling apart. It’s a window into the struggle for control, the grip of compulsion, and the slow path toward understanding what true recovery looks like.

Join Finn O'Bryan as he begins to unpack his story - the darkness and the light - in hopes of connecting with anyone who has faced addiction, loss, or is seeking a way out.
