Let's Talk Recovery
США
Добавлен 27 ноя 2023
Life can be TOUGH. Traumatic experiences shape who we are. I get it. I've been there more than once and struggle daily. Not having anyone to relate with doesn't make it any easier. It doesn't matter what stage of recovery you are in. If you need someone to listen to just to get out of your head for a bit, you've come to the right place. Going forward, I'm going to talk more about random experiences I've had throughout my life. Some of them will be intense. Some of them will be funny. Some of them will be cringey... Let's all be a part of something greater than ourselves. Whoever is watching/reading this... you are worth it! We, as human beings, aren't perfect. We don't have to let our past define who we are. Much love to everyone!
The Worst Things I've Done In Addiction & Moving Forward
Drug and alcohol addiction is a disease of the mind. Throughout the course of our addiction we inflict a lot of pain on not just ourselves, but onto other people. The shame we accumulate over time doesn't need to dictate the outcome of our lives.

Smoking Crack & The Insanity That Comes With it
Просмотров 8 тыс.Месяц назад
This video shares my experience of smoking crack and living on the streets of New York City. I discuss the physical sensation of smoking crack and provide a brief overview of the challenges I've encountered while being homeless. Addiction is a serious issue, and I want to emphasize that I'm not trying to diminish its gravity. I apologize for the somewhat cheesy intro; I'm actively striving to m...
Heroin Addiction: First Time Skateboarding Again!
Просмотров 1642 месяца назад
I stepped on a skateboard for the first time in many years. I used to skateboard for 8 years before I started injecting heroin. This message is one of positivity. Pay attention to the world around you because it's not all that bad. It's important to practice gratitude and try and find the beauty in the small things we sometimes take for granted. My heart goes out to everyone. #storytime #addict...
Drug Addiction: Shooting Heroin For The First Time
Просмотров 34 тыс.2 месяца назад
Every heroin addict can remember the first time they used heroin. Our first time is often the most memorable because we never experience that same feeling again. Our lives become a mission to chase that first high we got. I also touch on the selfishness of drug addiction, the impact it's had on loved ones, and where I'm at today. #addiction #raw #storytime #recovery
Dealing With Hate Comments: You Are Untouchable!

There are many people looking to put others down in order to take the focus off of themselves. It's easier said than done, but try and remember how short our time here on earth is. Don't waste your time worrying about what others have to say about you unless it's coming from a place of care and concern. #selfimprovement #recovery #motivational

Being Single Is Better: Learn About YOU First

Being single on Valentine's Day isn't necessarily a bad thing. Sure, you may be hurting, thinking about past loves, or upset because you're single, but this can also be a blessing. Being single allows us to focus on becoming our best selves for when the right one comes along. Everyone makes mistakes; nobody is perfect. Perfection does not exist. Having fewer distractions and more time for yours...

As someone who has witnessed a lot of insanity over the years, this memory sticks out the most because of how everyone around me reacted. As I was laughing, my eyes were scanning the subway car seeing all the different looks of disgust and outrage on peoples faces. #storytime #nyc #subway #homeless #funny

Fentanyl Overdose: No Legacy Left Behind
8 months in rehab. One week after I go out I shot heroin. Yesterday I od'd.
Drugs are evil don't do it kids or your end up a lowlife loser
You can't fix stupid
Bro your just a dope fiend
Damn…my whole life I thought I was a pirate…thx for the clarification 💯
@@RecoveryTalk I really hope you weren't being sarcastic man this isn't a game you have to get clean immediately before all is lost. Good luck! Peace.
A real man is what i see with a lot of potential and a good heart, be strong buddy
A real man never quits what he loves in this life he learns to moderate.
Crack is a waste of powder...
Great story
This is very powerful
One blaze we all had there was a dozen of us round a mates house I was around 25 and I’d bought the most! I bought two 50 stones and by the end of the night I was so spun and tweeking off my nut my mate Ben who’s dead now was desperate for another hit and I had some left in my sock and I threw it at him and said smoke up and I left in the morning at around 5am and I had work at 6, put it this way I never made it to work I was so anxious off my head rocking under a cover on my sofa thinking shit man this is the end! I continued to smoke crack on and off until I was around 40! Moral of the story do not smoke crack/meth it will ruin you!
Daaaamn this was so well spoken. And nothing was held back it feels probably. This story could be way longer. Never did hero but i can imagine being stuck for ever
Can see the pain on your face. I’ve been addicted to opioids since I turned 19 and I’m 26 now. Kicked it off and got heartbroken and went right back to it. Been on it for 5 years straight now, I’m hoping and praying I get off it permanently before I’m 30. It’s hard to imagine a life without it. Wishing you the best in your recovery
thanks for your video. i lost a childhood friend to a heroin overdose in 2022. RIP SIMON
i know
Just had this video come up in my recommended. Nice video
Thanks for your honesty. Power to you and what ever you do from now on.
Thank you for your story
Beautifully spoken
Sorry but can’t have any sympathy for junkies, you made the choice no one forced you.
😂
We love you. You are helping and you are helping to save people. Thank you
ALL the love back to you <3
Yo , u bragging or complaining ? Y do u think its called DOPE 😕
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. dr.sporessss
Does heroin really feel that good???????
MegaCasper4 yes
I stick to weed once in a while, i dont drink alcohol any, quit 2 months ago
Thank you, from France. I recognize a lot of my life in your videos ; there's such wisdom in your words.
Thank YOU for the kind words & support
I love your honesty brother. What most lack in the world, not only addicts. ❤
Talk actually about recovery and how to change.
I appreciate your feedback
@@RecoveryTalk everyone knows how to get high but very few know how to change. In the old days very few people had tattoos. Now everyone has them. That’s how drugs are now. People have always been using but now it’s in the open. Everyone knows a junky or someone who’s died from the illness. How many people know someone who has changed and how they did it? That I think would be something people would be interested to know about. We don’t decide how we react to drugs. We don’t decide how we react to sobriety either. And if you have addiction it’s less about the drugs and more about having a rough time just living free. Where the reference point is life and what we can bring to it.
Very powerful message
I can’t imagine making that decision to shoot that drug up for the first time! Everyone has seen what heroin does to people!! Why would anyone want to willingly take the first step to become a junkie? CRAZY!! 💉 😈 I Pray 🙏 You Stay Clean! Thanks For The Video & Your Honesty.
Of course it was a honda civic.
what an articulate guy. so well said and so well framed. i hope he is well. more people...way more people need to see this to understand the addicts they hear about often are people they would care about, if they only knew them. they aren't objects.
I’m an ex junkie I can listen to stories about heroin but crack I get goosebumps imagining inhaling that smoke then blowing it out sends a shiver down my spine!
😉That fucking blast man... 💥🥴🫠🥺😶🌫️🤦🏽♂️I still have flashbacks from my binges 2016-18 or so era.. 😏🙏🏽😇🤞🏽
@@gnosferatu667😩😩
A few seconds of euphoria followed by hours of hyper-anxiety, paranoia, and sadness.
@@Chris-kd4tuyes but that’s why it goes well with heroin afterwards
Same here I think of all those bell ringers and I literally get chills.
I shot heroin and then fentynal was the only thing around so I got dependent on it, after heroin, for 19 years. Heroin isn't around anymore. Collapsed all my veins after the first 4 years then skin popped and muscled. Still ha e over 80 healed holes as a nasty reminder. Went through everything a junkbox can go through. Was on subs 5 years. Been on methadone for 12 years since 2012. Down to 50 mgs from 120 mgs. Took me 9 months. Now getting sick on the taper. I want to be off this garbage methadone. Stopped doing cocaine and weed on June 4th 2009. Quit smoking cigarettes on October 9th 2009. Quit drinking arpril 7th 2021. Had fatty liver and was drinking a fifth a day. The dts were bad. Stopped shooting fent on April 21st 2023. Xzylazine was in the scamble. Was sick for 1 month, even on methadone . Now tapering off methadone. The only thing im dependent on now is the methadone, and coffee. Im also on 2 meds for psoriasis and psoriasitic arthritis.
Akorát jsem si pichnul… proto jsem se byl projít! Kupoval jsem kálo 😂😂😂
Sucks hearing this. If we only knew how lucky we are to even be alive. We could do so much more if we just stopped making excuses. I understand though. I do blow every now and then but luckily I can always quit. But that week long bender is a week a just wasted.
When ur thinking about trying and shooting for the first time and this video comes up. wtf
Ive had problems with cocaine/crack so i keep usage to once a month or so.
You’re the first person I’ve ever heard from that can use crack recreationally…please be safe ❤️
@@RecoveryTalk thanks, yeah it took a few years of sobriety to now have the ability to do it for one night only every month or two. Stay busy and pursue your passions is more fulfilling.
You‘re a pussy… (i hope this wakes you up) Love you bro. You‘ll do it❤
I'd like to have all the money back that I spent on crack and cocaine. I'd be a rich man! I've made a lot of money in my life, and I'd say I probably spent over 200 grand on drugs. I do not miss that lifestyle in the least bit! I'm very relieved that it's over, and extremely lucky to be alive. I'll tell you this though, believe it or not, for the 20+ years that I did it, I never one time spent a night in jail, never give my parents a rough time over it, never stole anything to get it, but I spent many times lying in my bed, begging God to take away the pain. Don't do drugs kid's! You may not be as lucky as I am.
The good ol ear ringer..lol
I do enjoy the high but the come down is horrible! I have to drink tequila with salt and lemon and then try to sleep but it takes a while. The high is intense, I do like it, the come down is rough. I also smoke it all alone unless they are also alone and into getting your freak on.
That's interesting I heard people say there was no physical feelings coming off Crack, that it was mentally hard . I believe you , thank God I never smoked it ❤
😆 Bro stop that shit! It's not good for you.
Im so glad i never touched black. I know my life would be over
My, this is exactly what the song Heroin says by the Velvet Underground, check it out
I used to shoot heroin. Which is a lie but I think I have a ice cream problem
taiedoreller do not be silly

Really intelligent,he gets it.Theres hope
Thank you for being so honest and sharing your story. I wish you all the best in your recovery
