Well, this was a very surprising thing to find on the web for me. I came across this movie by surprise, never heard about it. Honestly the movie is not that great, but that doesn't mean the story is bad. It's about a girl that suffered from depression, bipolar disorder, attempted suicide and was addicted to drugs and alcohol.
A friend of her wrote her story, and started this huge community with people sharing their struggles and it became a non profit organization.
This is a short video of her story narrated by Renee herself:
What I thought it was valuable from this is that the organization realizes the power of being supported by a community, which it of course reminded me of how being around healthy people, sharing and learning from each other is very important to overcome addictions.
I went through the website and it seems that since 2006 they are doing a great job with chats across several universities and all in all helping people that share their story. This is the website: https://twloha.com/learn/vision/
And here is a little conference given by the friend that wrote her story:
