At the age of 23, Eliza’s addiction spiralled.
Once a model, she would turn up to jobs on drugs and said they “didn’t really care” as long as she looked ok.
After being hospitalised a family friend helped her get the support needed from specialised groups.

Once sober, Eliza got back into modelling by posting on Instagram with followers suggesting she take up OnlyFans.
She added: “I earned a couple of grand in just a few of months which was crazy.”
Now nearly six years on, Eliza uses her personal experience and story to help others who reach out.
“I use my platform to tell my story too and I was inundated with messages,” she added.
“I had addicts reach out on Only Fans and I felt a sense of duty to help them out and point them in the direction of a support group.
“I can give them no judgement.
“I started helping people kind of by accident.”
Eliza said through her desperate years as an addict it taught her a lot and now helps her run a business.
