13. Substance abuse RMIT University Slide I was more frightened in there than when I was on the streets. I was trembling because there were all these big dudes … There was nothing I could talk to them about apart from drugs. The only thing we had in common was heroin (Palik).

Young people were far more likely to develop substance abuse problems after they became homeless than any other group. Johnson, G. and C. Chamberlain (2008).
