Ben’s Looking Good and Back on Track
Addiction is mean. Addiction is indiscriminate. Addiction can totally derail your life.
Getting life Back on Track after addiction takes real effort and undeniable commitment.
Professional Australian Rules footballer Ben Cousins (above) has shown such commitment in the last twelve months. Well done Ben!
Here’s Ben’s story published in today’s Herald-Sun Newspaper - Melbourne Confidential.

IT’S enough to make fans, friends and family of Ben Cousins
rejoice - if his appearance is anything to go by he’s finally getting back on track.
In his first public appearance this week since moving to Melbourne, he looked refreshed and relaxed, not the dishevelled and disoriented look of only a year ago.
Cousins attended the launch of luxury lifestyle publication Box Magazine this week at Sketch in the Docklands, in support of James Dutton, of the luxury car dealer family, and Perth publisher Troy Barbagallo, who are behind the magazine.
Cousins is a subscriber to Dutton Direct, the luxury online car trading business. He was more than happy to support the launch, posed for photos, and was sociable.
“It was great to see him looking so good, it really looked like he turned a corner,” Dutton said.
The banned West Coast football star was “perfectly behaved”, according to guests at the launch.
“He was not drinking and was a perfect gentleman,” a guest said.
And Cousins drew a lot of attention from local glamour girls, proving he’s lost none of his charm, before leaving around 8.30pm.
Cousins has moved to Melbourne to try and resurrect his footy career after drug rehabilitation.
He is also believed to be filming a documentary about the dramas of the past couple of years.
