Issue One

Addiction, Recovery, Loss, and Resilience

Welcome to the inaugural issue of In Vein Magazine.

In Vein Magazine was created to explore addiction, recovery, mental health, grief, and the people whose lives are shaped by them. Through personal stories, interviews, and research, we seek to foster honest conversations and reduce stigma.

This first issue features stories of survival, loss, and reflection from those who have experienced addiction and its consequences firsthand.
