About the Founder
That’s me in the photo above. For most of my life I felt alone—an outsider,
an outcast—until now.
Dopesick was born from a moment that changed everything. On that day, I felt
the crushing weight of a system that didn’t care, a world that reduced people
like me to statistics. That day became my rebirth. From that struggle emerged
a vision: to create something that would speak for those who feel unseen,
unheard, and undervalued.
Dopesick is more than a brand. It is alchemy in motion. The downward spiral
of addiction, pain, and struggle is not where our story ends. The “A” in Dopesick
is not just a letter; it’s a symbol of transformation, pointing upward to remind
us that we can rise above. The neon glow represents the fire within us—the
alchemy that turns suffering into power.
The numbers 5, 4, 6 aren’t random; they’re angel numbers that speak to change,
stability, and growth. They remind us that even in our darkest moments, there is a
path forward. Dopesick stands for the idea that we can take that downward path—
that brokenness—and transform it into a rising force.
This is not just my story; it’s ours. Dopesick is for every person who has felt
the weight of the world, who has faced the downward spiral and found the courage
to fight back. Our core principles are rebellion, healing, and transformation—
rebelling against the notion that we are powerless, healing by embracing our
stories, and transforming pain into strength.
Dopesick is a movement. It’s for the people, by the people. It’s about wearing
your survival story proudly and knowing that in doing so, you give others
permission to do the same. I built this because I believe in the power of real
pain to create real change. The science behind it is simple: pain can destroy us,
or it can forge us into something stronger.
We are not just a clothing brand. We are a collective—a family of survivors and
warriors—turning our struggles into symbols of hope. When you wear Dopesick,
you wear the story of rebirth: mine, yours, and everyone who refuses to give up.
Join us. Be part of this movement. Together, we rise.
