Luke Anderson, Early 40s, the picture of success, white, privileged, and handsome, uses crack and sex as a means to punish himself to overcome the problem hes had his whole life; not feeling worthy enough to know he deserves to live a happy life and to be comfortable in his own skin. Most people use drugs to ease pain. Luke uses drugs to create pain by using it as his therapy; a therapy long overdue from years of struggling with abandonment issues. Issues that were created by the death of Lukes father when he was a young boy.
