Model Brooks Nader admits she's still addicted to weight-loss drugs, despite an intervention her sisters staged after discovering a basket full of needles. Fans watched Brooks' sisters confront her during an episode of her reality TV series 'Love Thy Nader' after finding a basket full of needles used to inject GLP- medication.
Brooks admitted she knows the drugs aren't healthy for her but still relies on them as a crutch. 'The thing that I was so shocked about with the show was that I had so many people reach out to me saying ‘I’m also addicted to GLP-1. I’m ashamed to talk about it because there’s such a stigma around it. It’s a crutch for me,'' Nader told Bustle in a recent interview. 'I’m still on it,' Nader confessed. 'It’s a crutch for me, too. It’s not healthy. I should get off it; I’ll be honest about that.' BROOKS NADER'S SISTERS DISCOVER BASKET OF NEEDLES, STAGE INTERVENTION OVER WEIGHT LOSS DRUG ABUSE LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING?
