Putting words into action is one of the hardest thing to do for an addict. Then we have to maintain that action. Thus, the multiple relapses (usually) before recovery begins to stick. Think of it this way, it's like electricity, it's always easier to return to the drug of choice than keep making the hard (but right) choices.
If anyone is wondering: I seen Jana about 3 days ago now, she’s still homeless and using, but she’s flirting with the idea of rehab. Still so full of life, and kind, praying for her, please do the same!
@@ChosenWon If you have some contact info I’d be happy to pass it along to her. I think she has a phone, but no data, so no internet. Feel free to DM me
My husband was a homeless drug addict for years before I met him. His will to overcome his addiction was greater than his desire to use. He is a new man now and has been for over 7 years. Never give up !
Heartbreaking she asked for a notebook and a pen; she didn’t ask for money or drugs. She asked for something to truly make her happy which was a notebook and a damn pen or pencil. I really hope she can save her self and become the person that she is inside.
I used Kratom to quit heroin. Then quitting Kratom was easy. I own a business now and have a wonderful wife and child. Life can turn around, but you have to make it happen.
@@rogueranger7989 you got to really want it to happen and you definitely need support it helps it go a long ways. Yeah that methadone is one of the hardest ones but it can be done you have to do a long taper and then jump off on the kratom.
Yeah I Don’t Think She Is Uses To Talking About It This Honestly With Someone. It’s Most Likely Very Traumatizing. Bless Her Soul, I Can Tell She’s A Strong Person 🙏🏾
She was.such a sad situation.she's like a wee girl needing care and attention.she seems a sweet,but lost soul.Praying for her.I hope she gets help soon
Good for you bro 9 years clean last October. I have had my day slip ups here n there but 98percent of that 9 years I have been clean. I am on the clinic but idc it saved my life.
"I used to be a good person". If she walks away with nothing else right now, she needs to know that that doesn't change. Good people can make bad choices. That doesn't make them bad people.
Then you people have no idea and have no room to talk, addiction can make you a shitty person. It will make you ignore your own child. Is that a good person making a bad choice? No that’s a person who has become a shitty person due to their drug addiction.
She has so much emotional depth and complexity and is so observant. She exactly called out what i though about: you become so desensitized to homeless people, you don't think of them as "full humans" anymore. I definitely am guilty of this. It is so weird seeing someone who could be a school teacher or something on the street. This makes you think that everyone whos on the street could have lived normally if life treated them better. Those issues are never their fault. Everybody has the potential to be good at heart. And she is so sensitive to this and reflects it, just like me. It's so chilling to realize homeless people are not flat characters, they're full people deserving of a warm and safe home.
Yeah, i see it everyday when im out n about. See the homeless people on the corners or intersections with their signs, got people driving Cadillacs, Challengers, and New Trucks, etc,,, dont even look at these people, me,,, im driving a 15 yr old Ford Focus and give a couple dollars here n there, Hell,, just today i pulled up to a light and dude standing there and im like man, im totally busted at the moment as im scrounging around 80cents out of the counsel, snd im like hey dude, you want these bottles? I hed about 4 dollars worth of Mountain Dew cans bagged up in back floorboard. He was like Hell Yeah, everything helps.
@@williamsizemore98 Same... and sure it's "They're only gonna buy dope/booze with it!" Well, that's on them ,honestly..Im trying to put out the good energy and positive attraction..bc I need it too, who knows ,maybe that $ got them somewhere, where they ran into an old relative or got them to the train station on time to just miss a violent crime.. ? it's all a ripple effect.. **I will add that I've had food thrown AT me by a homeless folks...( I'm not talking crappy grub either. One time- *2 fresh Chick-fil-A sandwiches!!(that kinda pissed me off , ngl LOL)
@@yelizaveta1278 yeah, that's bullshit when they thrown your donation if its food back in your face, just make a note of who that person was n dont bother with that one anymore. That person was clearly looking for one thing only. Dope! Pretty sad.
My girl's from Canada. She moved out here and then became homeless at 18. She told me stories about having to beg people for money outside gas stations. When ever i see someone like this i always hope that one day they will meet someone who will take them off the streets and protect them. My wife will never have to ask another person for money ever again. She's a good woman who was dealt a bad hand early in life. I'll never abandon her
@@rozd7752 did you get in touc hcm with her? I'd like to help if I could, or at least have an update in her. She is in my prayers. My name is candice. I'm on my fiances page.. or mabey you can give me her Facebook info? Let me know
they do say that a lot. But they're dating these scumbags and bringing them home, so on some level there's some responsibility there, as well as the inability to say no when they offer.
That's why people need to realise how much men influence women....Women act independent (and they are), but they definitely follow men more than they admit
@@JD-zd8tm My nigga JD!!!! I remember playing rynescape wit' you back in the day. Then you became an emo pop-rocks lil' BYTCH & I dropped ya' ass --like I'm droppin' this sheet in ma' t0ilet, DAHG....
I wish I could help this young woman. It touched me in the end when she asked what he could help her with, and instead of asking for money, she asked for help with housing and help with shoes and underwear. I pray she gets the help that she needs and deserves. God please be with this woman...
her naming everything she wants to be when she gets sober is so innocent and brings tears to my eyes. I hope she really wants to get better and works hard. I am rooting for you girl!
You can just tell that she is a really special person. I am praying for total healing for her. Her daughter and mother need her. The world needs her ❤❤❤
These stories hit me hard and I'm so thankful for my sobriety. I just celebrated my 10th year clean and I've turned a dark cold lonely place into a wonderful life my husband stood by me the whole way.. I thought I was not an addict cause my doctor was giving me the meds. But after my sons birth he was born sleeping I just lost it. I was lucky to have my beautiful rainbow baby girl who will be turning 13 in May. I stayed clean for almost 3 years and my depression just hit and I went down hill. It took my daughter coming to me when I'm sick saying I don't want u not sick mommy and I went to rehab. So its possible to anyone out there just hang in there please
People say she's high now. She's maintaining the illness. It's beyond partying, it's fighting the pain that the body has in withdrawl. If she doesn't get high her body pain is completely unbearable. What it does to the brain and how it changes everything is another story.
As a healthy grandma I was severely injured, the doctors put me oxy. I could tell the first day it was not for me, I was a successful business woman, take it before bed then wake up in early am to take a second, this to get my body to tolerate it. So goes the story we hear multitudes of times, other people and all doctors treated me like the death angel, then a chronic pain patient for the rest of my life, needing medication but dying with it! Being thrown into immediate withdrawal trying to stop on my own, then the heartless 'pain specialists', jumping through their hoops do it or else! Horrible world we live in, really!
My name is Eileen and I use to be on drugs I now have 28 years clean. I'm proud of myself God and my oldest son Raheem gave me support. He passed on 6.27.2003 rip son.
She is such an empathic person and super smart, with a huge heart. Eventhough she is homeless and addicted, she has an elegance and dignity about her. I sincerely wish her well! Thank you for treating the people you film with respect.
Tom I wish there was more people like you..When she told you what she needed and you told her ok, I'll get it, I know you meant that and that just warms my heart.
Tom you are a great person with a heart of gold!!! I appreciate you going around to these beautiful souls and reaching out your hand in support for them💙💜💙 thank you!!!!
This breaks my heart. You can see she is a thoughtful person. Her empathy is a gift and with some guidance she can recover and help others. Lifting you up Jana
Jana is strikingly attractive, and appears to have a good heart. Help her in whatever way you can, Tom. She needs a true friend, and hopefully she'll try rehab. God bless her. #changeisjustonedecisionaway
She’s gorgeous! I feel so bad for her :/ hoping she can get out of her current situation and get the life she really wants, you can tell she’s a really good person
“I want to help everyone but I can’t even help myself.”’ That broke my heart. I hope she gets help. She can do so much more. She has such a bright soul underneath there. ❤️
Humanitarians can easily become addicts because they become depressed & choose legal or illegal drugs. People like me was forced to become chemical dependents & tested on as children & given false diagnoses to make drug companies rich pushing toxic recalled medications & legal drugs similar to street drugs in chemical make. It’s truly sad the world they designed corruptly & ensures most our self destruction in one way or another or the addiction to things even like sugar that’s found to cause issue yet legal. Drugs we think destroy you & are injected but are also ingested & kill people. Even food addiction & obesity in record killed more people than cancer & drug addiction sadly.
I can feel her pain, her fears, her battles, all of it. She has so much pain in her heart and you can genuinely feel it and hear it. I hope she is able to get help to get out of that lifestyle and to be able to move on in her life and do well, and become happy, and fix her broken/breaking heart.
As a registered nurse, I have had dozens of patients with history of IV drug use and currently actively use. Had a lady in the hospital for 2 months and in isolation. For the first 2 weeks she cried and screamed in agony every night during the withdrawals. She was thrashing so hard I had to put her in restraints. She almost stroked out from the withdrawal alone. Had very severe septic arthritis amongst other life threatening conditions. All because she was addicted to heroin. Every nurse that took care of her couldn’t stand her. She would cuss them out or feel they were judging her. However her and I had a mutual respect and understanding. All she wanted was to be heard and understood. She felt like the doctors didn’t care. Felt they saw her as a “stereotypical” addict. One of the saddest cases I’ve had. Please don’t overlook these people🙏
The illusion of actually caring in this society is fading quick, but to be honest I'd rather have someone treat me like shit instead of pretend, hard to differentiate whats actually genuine nowadays
She shouldn't have done drugs. If she didn't care enough about her kid to not do drugs she doesn't deserve her. At least until she gets clean but I don't feel bad for her.
As a recovering alcoholic with only 40 days under my belt my heart goes out to this woman and I pray someone does help her like someone helped me. God bless her.
Stay strong and know there are folks out there like me who wish you happiness and health. My ex husband died due to alcohol so I know what a monster it can be. One day at a time ❤️
@@dozzer009 ma'am I would like to thank you personally for the kind words and I am very sorry for your loss of a loved one and yes it is very tough but somehow we make it another day then I mark on my calendar every day just so I can look at everyday how I made it another day and I swear when I reach one year I will devote my life totally to saving other alcoholics from dealing with what I have for 30 years and it breaks my heart did not only think about what I put myself through but that there are others. Alcohol has no good at the bottom of the bottle and if it did I would have already found it by now thank you for having faith and old faces of junk like me I just want to do better God bless you
@george spear thank you so much for the words of support and yes I definitely do the same as you and I mark it on my calendar because my calendar only does days but you know as well as I do we are just thankful by the hours minutes and seconds that we are alcohol-free. Your kind words as well as others are what give us fellowship and the encouragement to continue forward to be totally alcohol-free every day every minute and every hour every second. God bless you brother. I commend you and want what you have over four years oh my God yes I want what you have. Amen congratulations
Luther Eakin II You are so very welcome. It sounds like you have a solid plan and when you make your year, and I have faith in you that you will, slap me a virtual high-five. Always love yourself and never give up. Sending healing light and positive energy to you today and every day that follows. Godspeed my friend.
Poor Sweetie! I wish I could give you a Hug and help you !!! You still have so much potential to turn your life around ! Please don’t give up if you see this message… God Bless You!
Exactly. She had focus when she was talking about things she wants to do with her life. She's intelligent and lovely and needs help. I pray someone helps her 🙏
@chris YES SHE DOES!! But I told tom if they are Not off the streets in 2yrs. it’s usually 10 yrs B4 they get out!! 😭💔💔 if I lived over there. I’d go find her &help her out. I HAVE FAITH IN HER. She needs help NOW!! B4 it’s too last. It broke my heart she asked for just the simplest things like a writing ✍️ pad. Pen💔😭God bless her. I will keep her in my prayers. I work with the homeless. I have for over 17 hrs now.
@@mattmaster2582 easy for you to say. It's not always about the way that parents raise their kids. It's about environment and people who you think are your friends people who you trust and then all the sudden you fall into addiction. Don't be so quick to judge when you don't even know the full story.
People need to educate themselves on addiction. I'm a very big advocate for addicts , And for all the self righteous people out there that have something nasty to say about addicts educated yourself. Addiction starts in so many different ways. And please before u open ur mouth and say nasty things remember that's someone son, daughter, mother and , father. Have a heart.
She’s crying out for help. Its as if she’s trying to crawl out of her own skin pleading for help from this demon! It’s so difficult to watch without wanting to jump through the screen to help her. I’ve not been able to sleep. I just found your channel and have been watching. If I could take these women in my home I would!!! Just as they are. I’m in Texas though. I want to help!
@Lil me I to what to help her. I read your comment I was thing the same thing as you. Why not contact me and see if we can come up with some way to help this lady. Maybe get her into some rehab and have her a place to live when she gets out. I feel all she needs is a helping hand from some one who really cares. It sounds like she has had nothing but assholes for boyfriends. The one she's with now has her walking the streets to seaport them both. What kind of man has his girlfriend that he should be loving and caring for walk the streets.
I went to highschool with her. We used to smoke weed, skip school, etc. My first encounter with the cops was with her. They took us to the station for being in an abandoned house. We used to hang out with this guy Lester and he ended up ODing from something. I don’t remember what it was. It shocked me so bad. I never thought any of us would get so bad into drugs. Please pray for her. She’s one of us, guys. Jana, if you are reading this, I love you. You are beautiful. Turn to Jesus. You are what He says you are. Not what you, or anyone else thinks.
MineTravelers don’t be ignorant g you not in the situation but if you were you wouldn’t be commenting the same thing. You have a photo of Minecraft on your account who’s the virgin now LMFAOO 🤣🤣🤣
@MineTravelers She really doesn't look that bad. I have seen people look much worse and sure you have to lol. She has pretty eyes and face isn't bad plus nice voice.
As a father of a young girl, my heart really hurts watching this. I couldn't imagine seeing my little girl out there in the streets, scared, alone and in a horrible spot in their lives. Thank you for uploading these, they spread light on some of the reality people don't think about in everyday life.
That is wonderful that you see it this way.. keep that! I'm in recovery ,and though I never lived on the streets hardcore like this ,I put myself in dire limbo. (living out of my car for a month or two here and there..but tried to appear "normal", keeping a secret..) My own father won't even speak to me.I let him down and am a disgrace. I'm over 30 and see that it is unfortunate rather than taking as to heart as I did.. but it still hurts like hell.:(- that, compounded with that I don't agree with his zealous religious views (example: I cannot say to an adolescent in SEast Asia- "You follow this OR burn for eternity!") I choose a simpler,kinder more peaceful approach to life now.. (not to be mistaken for weakness;) with a big dose of Gratitude. ❤parenting is the ultimate labor of love..
She made me cry... My son was clean for 7 months, then used - he od’. He was 27, he passed away 16 months ago. I have a hard time watching these videos, I hope they find some peace
My son struggles daily. I watch his battle, the good days and bad. By the grace of God and fantastic therapists, he is winning his battle. He now has a great job, his own home, I'm so proud and very thankful.
Heart wrenching. when she list all of things she wants to do, its like listening to a child when you ask them what they want to be when they grow up. Very endearing.
Jana is a pretty woman, and she is undoubtedly intelligent too with her mom being a teacher. I wish the best for Jana, I hope she can get her addiction under control so she can be a good mother for her daughter.
Wowww I’m 28 born in 1993 a lot of these women are my age and look aged and I just can’t wrap my head around how young they are how could this happen 😭😭😭Jesus we need you so bad !!
It’s heartbreaking to see her be so emotional and caring , you can tell she’s a good person. I’m 28 and I’ve seen my brother Struggle so bad with drug abuse it truly destroys you and your family too
Same luckily my bro finally got clean was a true blessing i hope this woman can see a brighter future with her daughter and in a kitchen cooking like she wants she deserves it 💔💔💔
She's only 29, had it pretty hard so far,but she has her whole life ahead of her,with some help and support it can be done.She talks about her mum, but doesn't mention her daughter.I hope she makes it.
Just came across your page for the first time tonight, and this video impacted me the most. Her heart is beautiful, you can see that... I feel I relate so much to her in so many ways. She has so much potential. I hope to see her overcome this.
I live in a recovery home in Chicago.....best decision I ever made in my life.....just made 9 months clean....God Bless u Maurice L. for your dedication to mens recovery issues
My Lord and my God she needs you. If there was anybody who needs divine intervention it is Jana. Please God help her. Move heaven and earth to reach her. Please. Thank you. Amen 🙏.
Real people see real pain dawg... she is tired... it is a sad thing indeed. I'd say we have choices but were in a system. That keeps poor people down.... cuz you ethier work yourself to death and get nowhere or you try to fuck the system... or sell drugs. The world is wrong as a whole.. I wish we could just change it..
Unfortunately these people need alot of help and even more unfortunate is there isn't a ton of free resources out there for poor folks hooked on dangerous, hyper addictive drugs. So they steal or get into other dumb and dangerous situations, which leads them to prison, and not every prison is interested in helping them fix their life as much as they are interested in punishment. So when they get out are they in a better spot then before they got locked up? Comments like the one about hugging her will get you fleas or robbed are a pretty common view about these folk. Alot of the addicts I know are brutally aware people think they are scum, and it helps keep them in this dark place they use hard drugs to escape. Detroit and the federal government probably have programs that could help, but they aren't effectively promoted so people don't know how to get help or who is there to help. Sad fucking state of affairs and I hope public support for programs to help people get back on track really grows because our current methods aren't doing enough. Good on this RUclipsr for doing what they could to help this person. I've been down and out before, not as bad as her by any stretch but I've had a taste of my own and watched many friends do this to themselves, a little kindness and compassion can go a long way for someone in a bad place.
You can really tell she wants to stop but her past decisions are crushing her, so she does more to forget. It's so sad. Because the longer this goes on the harder it gets to quit.
You are so right. It is heart breaking. It is so important not to judge unless you have walked a mile in that person's shoes... I believe that with my whole heart. She is stuck in a maze and cant see the way out.
Omg. My heart. 💔 I was a heroine addict, from age 17 to 20. My Dad didn’t give up on me... that’s the only reason I’m still here... I was lucky to be loved by someone, unconditionally, and that’s it. I’m 36 now, I have 2 beautiful teenagers, and I’ve been blessed. I just wish and pray all of this, for this woman. ❤️❤️❤️
Let's pray so she stays a heroin addict for the rest of her life? How is praying supposed to help her? As a person of faith you should realize that praying won't change a thing. Why should god even listen to prayers? He knows everything already. Prayers are just an easy way to make yourself feel better
Oh my goodness. Jana touched my core. She wants to help everyone but needs help herself.... Her heart is Soo big. She asked for a note bad and a pen to write and draw to make her happy ❤️❤️. I pray she goes and gets help. There are so many things she aspires to do if she get clean. I pray she does soon. I would love an update n Jana 🙏
I wish I could talk to this woman, she reminds me of my cousin Michelle, she seems so warm and kind hearted. A lot of people would simply pass individuals who have addiction issues in the street and turn their nose up in disgust, but these people are in pain and are human beings like all of us. I love what you are doing,helping these people who need it the most, and they are so incredibly thankful and appreciative. I hope this young lady who clearly has a heart of gold can get the help she needs to get sober because she would make an amazing youth counselor, much love for all you do and this kind woman,Jana♡
She seems like a very sweet person. She’s in a very sad situation. I hope she can get drug treatment and counseling and get her life back on track. She’s clearly been through so much trauma in her life. I’m glad to hear that she still has aspirations and dreams and I hope she can fulfill them. I wish her the best.
@@ralphabreu5022 you're propably right because she lives in that shithole of country w/o free healthcare. In other countries they are treating Heroin addicts and try to get them back on track.(Providing them with clean tools and trying to reduce their dosage)
@@waayneinteressierts9704 In the state of New York She would get free healthcare and free rides to drug treatment and rip us the taxpayer's expense and will never ever get better.. once a Junkie always a Junkie
I can't watch this video to the end! I almost started to cry, and I don't wanna' cry right now! Although I never met this woman, she is a real human being!!!!!!! She deserve love! I would bet she believes that she don't! I'm sittin' here right now, contemplating ways we could possibly help her. I hope she is not dead!
Wow when she said everybody I love dies. I felt that. I lost my mom, dad, babymom & 2 bestfriends to heroin. My daughter 2 sids. Im 3 years clean from meth. Addiction is a terrible disease.
She has been up for day's....that's why she is so emotional.. How could anyone let this happen to themselves ..idk.....you can not help any one untill they really won't to help themselves....she seems to want help..her emotional state is from being awake so long..notice how she gos from crying to ok every few minutes....... It's truly a shame how drugs destroy people...at the same time they made there bed..ya know...only they can fix themselves........some will bite the hand of someone helping..you help then you are the bad guy..I have done it I have been there..not on drugs...but I helped someone try to get clean....it don't aways work out for the better of anyone.so ????. ....
In that state she can’t reflect on her life... she can’t be rational... it’s an endless circle that she can’t break out right now. Doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Sometimes a push from someone who isn’t involved is needed. Drug addicts are like children. You need to take them by the hand. She’s so miserable cause of her state that she thinks the solution is more drugs even though she wants to break out... it’s a matter we can’t understand cause we’re not addicted. She’s weak and that’s no crime she just needs more strength to get out
Humanity! We need more of it...this is truly meat in heaven my friend...God bless you, what you do, the people that contribute and especially the PEOPLE you do it for. I can barely watch these videos...I cry nearly every time. These people need our help! The abused and desperate we treat like beasts...I see more humanity in her eyes than most people with a job and a warm home. I respect the uploader for both bravery, but taking the time to listen and give hope. What can I complain about in my life after listening to Jana? I pray that God sends his angels to watch over you and all that you do to help these people. It's a wonderful thing that you do. For God's sake please never stop.
Such a beautiful young woman, full of life and potential! It inspires me to see how much she wants to change, she still has a light in her eye.. I truly hope she can get the help she needs, I know she'd take it!
So I know Jana personally and have relations with her for about 7 or 8 years. I met her in the very early stages of mine and her addiction/using. I was very close with her being a seeing each other veryday and having some amazing good times , as well as sometimes some not so good times...obviously it's addicting right ? Lol but no matter what were into at the time she was always herself and the same loving , good hearted person always. She was beyond nice to any and everyone and A LOT of undeserving bad people. She went through a few toxic relationships that were nothing but unhealthy and traumatizing. But she was the girl who loved hard and didn't leave when she deserved so much better. She put up with abuse from several guys who also used and she used to cover it up instead of leaving. But Jana never let that take her heart and shine away ...jana was always still Jana. Her smile lights up the room and even in active bad addicton she STILL has that light and beauty to her. The last time I got to see and hug her was about a month ago maybe and she was okay. I see her often because she is squading out of a vacant bar in my negbiorhood, with her boyfriend, whom is also abusive. I was told that she jumped out of the bar window , or should say she "feel" but in reality it was to run away from his abuse. Smh she broke both legs in result to it but has recovered fine and walking. I try to check on her from time to time when I can and make sure she's fine. She always manages to get money off me after I get my hug from her tho lol but it's so worth it knowing it helps her. She is one of the most down to earth and caring person I've honestly ever met, yeah she is an addict but there is so much more to her that she is in my eyes. Addicting takes over the best of us unfortunately.
This lady reminds me of my mother. So much beauty and... good quality put inside her soul. Wanting to cook and write and enjoy/love humans around them, but the addiction has such a evil, tight grip. She’s so right about “those who aren’t in it don’t get it”. I judged my mother for a long time in my kid-teen years. As I’ve grown into a young women, I understand how humans... are human and can fall short. But it doesn’t change their heart.
Death penalty would have been more effective. Like in Asian countries. If they did that 50 years ago her life would have been saved. Along with millions of others. It works. Most would never have had their first fix.
Very good vides - Kids must be able to watch these and see life as it really is.........Maybe just maybe we can slow down the urge and desire to get "HIGH" in this Country.
When she said, she wants to save everybody but can't save herself. That hit hard to me. Stay safe Jana baby.
110% felt that too.
Me too
I feel the same way..It hits hard. I can really relate 🙄
@@BoldAndBeautiful916 yes. She said that and cried for so many of us.
Putting words into action is one of the hardest thing to do for an addict. Then we have to maintain that action. Thus, the multiple relapses (usually) before recovery begins to stick. Think of it this way, it's like electricity, it's always easier to return to the drug of choice than keep making the hard (but right) choices.
If anyone is wondering:
I seen Jana about 3 days ago now, she’s still homeless and using, but she’s flirting with the idea of rehab. Still so full of life, and kind, praying for her, please do the same!
Thank you. Tell her I said hello. Where did you see her?
@@ChosenWon If you have some contact info I’d be happy to pass it along to her. I think she has a phone, but no data, so no internet. Feel free to DM me
im sure she was flirting with the idea while she was catching all my kids last week. man, she was great. no mess. 😂
@@jessesalinas8534 I bet, enjoy your syphilis buddy.
She is asking the right questions. This is a person who has the desire to turn her life around
But not the will unfortunately.
@@mattycosta9074 Yes actually I do. No amount of "help" or access to rehab will do anything unless the person wants to stop.
She is a bright soul. There is hope for her.
My husband was a homeless drug addict for years before I met him. His will to overcome his addiction was greater than his desire to use. He is a new man now and has been for over 7 years. Never give up !
Thanks and congratulations to him.
Heartbreaking she asked for a notebook and a pen; she didn’t ask for money or drugs. She asked for something to truly make her happy which was a notebook and a damn pen or pencil. I really hope she can save her self and become the person that she is inside.
👍✌
I used Kratom to quit heroin. Then quitting Kratom was easy. I own a business now and have a wonderful wife and child. Life can turn around, but you have to make it happen.
Congratulations.
That's great news I used Kratom to get off the Suboxone from getting off of heroin.
GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT!! I Have Yet to See -Anyone- Get Off Methadone let alone Anything Elese as it is Designed That Way!! 👍
@@rogueranger7989 you got to really want it to happen and you definitely need support it helps it go a long ways. Yeah that methadone is one of the hardest ones but it can be done you have to do a long taper and then jump off on the kratom.
Sometimes you may have to go back on a short-acting opiate (SAO) for a few days or a week then try the kratom.
I feel like she was begging you to get her out of there.
Yeah I Don’t Think She Is Uses To Talking About It This Honestly With Someone. It’s Most Likely Very Traumatizing. Bless Her Soul, I Can Tell She’s A Strong Person 🙏🏾

@@rhyoliteaddict7939 why so
I was a heroin addict for 15yrs. I know what that's about & she's right it's a life of hell. But I got 4-1/2yrs clean now.
GOOD BRO .
Did u ever Feel the need of returning? which is the only way to apply, or methood to stop addiction to heroin?
i’m so proud of you :)
excellent
Good for you bro 9 years clean last October. I have had my day slip ups here n there but 98percent of that 9 years I have been clean. I am on the clinic but idc it saved my life.
"I used to be a good person". If she walks away with nothing else right now, she needs to know that that doesn't change. Good people can make bad choices. That doesn't make them bad people.
Exactly! Addiction drives you to things you wouldnt ordinarily do,and then you're wracked with guilt on top of people passing judgement on you
Well said💗
She still is a good person!! They can't just quit they will die. Hope she finds her way.
Yes. Exactly. God bless
Her to get better. 🙏🙏🙏
Then you people have no idea and have no room to talk, addiction can make you a shitty person. It will make you ignore your own child. Is that a good person making a bad choice? No that’s a person who has become a shitty person due to their drug addiction.
“I want to save everybody, I can’t save myself” she deserves healing ❤️❤️❤️
She has so much emotional depth and complexity and is so observant. She exactly called out what i though about: you become so desensitized to homeless people, you don't think of them as "full humans" anymore. I definitely am guilty of this. It is so weird seeing someone who could be a school teacher or something on the street. This makes you think that everyone whos on the street could have lived normally if life treated them better. Those issues are never their fault. Everybody has the potential to be good at heart. And she is so sensitive to this and reflects it, just like me. It's so chilling to realize homeless people are not flat characters, they're full people deserving of a warm and safe home.
Yeah, i see it everyday when im out n about. See the homeless people on the corners or intersections with their signs, got people driving Cadillacs, Challengers, and New Trucks, etc,,, dont even look at these people, me,,, im driving a 15 yr old Ford Focus and give a couple dollars here n there, Hell,, just today i pulled up to a light and dude standing there and im like man, im totally busted at the moment as im scrounging around 80cents out of the counsel, snd im like hey dude, you want these bottles? I hed about 4 dollars worth of Mountain Dew cans bagged up in back floorboard. He was like Hell Yeah, everything helps.
@@williamsizemore98 Same... and sure it's "They're only gonna buy dope/booze with it!" Well, that's on them ,honestly..Im trying to put out the good energy and positive attraction..bc I need it too, who knows ,maybe that $ got them somewhere, where they ran into an old relative or got them to the train station on time to just miss a violent crime.. ? it's all a ripple effect..
**I will add that I've had food thrown AT me by a homeless folks...( I'm not talking crappy grub either. One time- *2 fresh Chick-fil-A sandwiches!!(that kinda pissed me off , ngl LOL)
@@yelizaveta1278 yeah, that's bullshit when they thrown your donation if its food back in your face, just make a note of who that person was n dont bother with that one anymore. That person was clearly looking for one thing only. Dope! Pretty sad.
I really hope she's okay today. An update would be greatly appreciated!
My girl's from Canada. She moved out here and then became homeless at 18. She told me stories about having to beg people for money outside gas stations. When ever i see someone like this i always hope that one day they will meet someone who will take them off the streets and protect them. My wife will never have to ask another person for money ever again. She's a good woman who was dealt a bad hand early in life. I'll never abandon her

It goes both ways, but women always have issues with accountability.
@@brandonmills1135 incel
they do say that a lot. But they're dating these scumbags and bringing them home, so on some level there's some responsibility there, as well as the inability to say no when they offer.

@@brianna094 Lots of people without addictions do terrible things.
These stories hit me hard and I'm so thankful for my sobriety. I just celebrated my 10th year clean and I've turned a dark cold lonely place into a wonderful life my husband stood by me the whole way.. I thought I was not an addict cause my doctor was giving me the meds. But after my sons birth he was born sleeping I just lost it. I was lucky to have my beautiful rainbow baby girl who will be turning 13 in May. I stayed clean for almost 3 years and my depression just hit and I went down hill. It took my daughter coming to me when I'm sick saying I don't want u not sick mommy and I went to rehab. So its possible to anyone out there just hang in there please

People say she's high now. She's maintaining the illness. It's beyond partying, it's fighting the pain that the body has in withdrawl. If she doesn't get high her body pain is completely unbearable. What it does to the brain and how it changes everything is another story.
💯%
If everyone could understand this disease!sad realy
Thank you it’s so true I hate when people say it’s partying it’s really not
THIS!!!👏👏👏 Tysm for saying this!
As a healthy grandma I was severely injured, the doctors put me oxy. I could tell the first day it was not for me, I was a successful business woman, take it before bed then wake up in early am to take a second, this to get my body to tolerate it.
So goes the story we hear multitudes of times, other people and all doctors treated me like the death angel, then a chronic pain patient for the rest of my life, needing medication but dying with it!
Being thrown into immediate withdrawal trying to stop on my own, then the heartless 'pain specialists', jumping through their hoops do it or else!
Horrible world we live in, really!
Videos need to be played in High School classrooms
And during medical classes so all future doctors could think twice before prescripting anybody opiats...

For real though. How does anyone see this an not feel something. Heroine really is the Devil
It’s like you are drowning and begging for help... and there is no one
U so nice girl I can tell
Humanitarians can easily become addicts because they become depressed & choose legal or illegal drugs.
People like me was forced to become chemical dependents & tested on as children & given false diagnoses to make drug companies rich pushing toxic recalled medications & legal drugs similar to street drugs in chemical make.
It’s truly sad the world they designed corruptly & ensures most our self destruction in one way or another or the addiction to things even like sugar that’s found to cause issue yet legal.
Drugs we think destroy you & are injected but are also ingested & kill people. Even food addiction & obesity in record killed more people than cancer & drug addiction sadly.
SOPO THE VIBE i hope your doing better now bro, for real. and your insight is genuinely very eye opening
I can feel her pain, her fears, her battles, all of it. She has so much pain in her heart and you can genuinely feel it and hear it. I hope she is able to get help to get out of that lifestyle and to be able to move on in her life and do well, and become happy, and fix her broken/breaking heart.
As a registered nurse, I have had dozens of patients with history of IV drug use and currently actively use. Had a lady in the hospital for 2 months and in isolation. For the first 2 weeks she cried and screamed in agony every night during the withdrawals. She was thrashing so hard I had to put her in restraints. She almost stroked out from the withdrawal alone. Had very severe septic arthritis amongst other life threatening conditions. All because she was addicted to heroin. Every nurse that took care of her couldn’t stand her. She would cuss them out or feel they were judging her. However her and I had a mutual respect and understanding. All she wanted was to be heard and understood. She felt like the doctors didn’t care. Felt they saw her as a “stereotypical” addict. One of the saddest cases I’ve had. Please don’t overlook these people🙏
✌👍
Did she make it all the way through the treatment?
Doctors are sociopaths.
@@whiterussia9232 Exactly!!! At least some methadone or suboxone for the love of God!!!

@@mattmaster2582 easy for you to say. It's not always about the way that parents raise their kids. It's about environment and people who you think are your friends people who you trust and then all the sudden you fall into addiction. Don't be so quick to judge when you don't even know the full story.
People need to educate themselves on addiction. I'm a very big advocate for addicts , And for all the self righteous people out there that have something nasty to say about addicts educated yourself. Addiction starts in so many different ways. And please before u open ur mouth and say nasty things remember that's someone son, daughter, mother and , father. Have a heart.

Thank you for uploading these, they spread light on some of the reality people don't think about in everyday life.
That is wonderful that you see it this way.. keep that! I'm in recovery ,and though I never lived on the streets hardcore like this ,I put myself in dire limbo. (living out of my car for a month or two here and there..but tried to appear "normal", keeping a secret..) My own father won't even speak to me.I let him down and am a disgrace. I'm over 30 and see that it is unfortunate rather than taking as to heart as I did.. but it still hurts like hell.:(- that, compounded with that I don't agree with his zealous religious views (example: I cannot say to an adolescent in SEast Asia- "You follow this OR burn for eternity!")

"What can you help me with?" That's her subconscious trying to get her out of that place. She's a good person.

Mann, I wish I could just give her a hug and tell her everything’s gonna be alright. Just know you are loved Jana so don’t give up!
Real people see real pain dawg... she is tired... it is a sad thing indeed. I'd say we have choices but were in a system. That keeps poor people down.... cuz you ethier work yourself to death and get nowhere or you try to fuck the system... or sell drugs. The world is wrong as a whole.. I wish we could just change it..
Unfortunately these people need alot of help and even more unfortunate is there isn't a ton of free resources out there for poor folks hooked on dangerous, hyper addictive drugs.
So they steal or get into other dumb and dangerous situations, which leads them to prison, and not every prison is interested in helping them fix their life as much as they are interested in punishment.
So when they get out are they in a better spot then before they got locked up?
Comments like the one about hugging her will get you fleas or robbed are a pretty common view about these folk. Alot of the addicts I know are brutally aware people think they are scum, and it helps keep them in this dark place they use hard drugs to escape.
Detroit and the federal government probably have programs that could help, but they aren't effectively promoted so people don't know how to get help or who is there to help.
Sad fucking state of affairs and I hope public support for programs to help people get back on track really grows because our current methods aren't doing enough.
Good on this RUclipsr for doing what they could to help this person. I've been down and out before, not as bad as her by any stretch but I've had a taste of my own and watched many friends do this to themselves, a little kindness and compassion can go a long way for someone in a bad place.
You can really tell she wants to stop but her past decisions are crushing her, so she does more to forget. It's so sad. Because the longer this goes on the harder it gets to quit.
You are so right. It is heart breaking. It is so important not to judge unless you have walked a mile in that person's shoes... I believe that with my whole heart. She is stuck in a maze and cant see the way out.

Harry Cunth how do you Know? You could say the same to me. The point is why be a douche?
@Joseph Robinson What do you mean by that?
You can pray for me, I will pray for you, and we can both pray for the hooker.
Prayers for Jana and others like her.
I wish I could talk to this woman, she reminds me of my cousin Michelle, she seems so warm and kind hearted. A lot of people would simply pass individuals who have addiction issues in the street and turn their nose up in disgust, but these people are in pain and are human beings like all of us. I love what you are doing,helping these people who need it the most, and they are so incredibly thankful and appreciative. I hope this young lady who clearly has a heart of gold can get the help she needs to get sober because she would make an amazing youth counselor, much love for all you do and this kind woman,Jana♡
Bless her heart. She is broken. She needs to get to rehab. She has a good chance.
besides the hoppin in cars girl i feel u eo much i can realate so much
@black zebra the state pays for rehab with medicad..
She seems like a very sweet person. She’s in a very sad situation. I hope she can get drug treatment and counseling and get her life back on track. She’s clearly been through so much trauma in her life. I’m glad to hear that she still has aspirations and dreams and I hope she can fulfill them. I wish her the best.
She's a Junkie
Once a Junkie always a junkie
@@ralphabreu5022 you're propably right because she lives in that shithole of country w/o free healthcare. In other countries they are treating Heroin addicts and try to get them back on track.(Providing them with clean tools and trying to reduce their dosage)
@@waayneinteressierts9704
In the state of New York
She would get free healthcare and free rides to drug treatment and rip us the taxpayer's expense and will never ever get better.. once a Junkie always a Junkie
I can't watch this video to the end! I almost started to cry, and I don't wanna' cry right now! Although I never met this woman, she is a real human being!!!!!!! She deserve love! I would bet she believes that she don't! I'm sittin' here right now, contemplating ways we could possibly help her. I hope she is not dead!
Wow when she said everybody I love dies. I felt that.
I lost my mom, dad, babymom & 2 bestfriends to heroin.
My daughter 2 sids.
Im 3 years clean from meth.
Addiction is a terrible disease.
Congratulations
I know what she means when she said "my heart hurts" ....hit hard...
She really needs your help Tom plz do your best. She's crying out for help
I believe she is to. 😢
I agree she needs help. Tom is a wonderful person to do all he does. He can not save the world.
Really she needs to help herself first.
@@lynnstansberry7143 you're the POS. Tom is a very kind gentleman. You are a whiners nightmare.
Lynn Stansberry exploiting? They get to share their story and receive help. Also it’s about awareness.
Love you Jana and that is forever. Thanks for doing this, man. God will bless your efforts.
She’s so sweet. I hope she gets the help she needs & can pursue her dream of cooking & having a food truck.
Man, she has some really sad eyes.
@Bornaking as have many
Sadly
She has some really high eyes!
Golden eyes
@J L I agree with you.
Lol she's doped out there's a difference
She doesn’t want this .... her pain is so real I wish I could help her
She has been up for day's....that's why she is so emotional..
How could anyone let this happen to themselves ..idk.....you can not help any one untill they really won't to help themselves....she seems to want help..her emotional state is from being awake so long..notice how she gos from crying to ok every few minutes.......
It's truly a shame how drugs destroy people...at the same time they made there bed..ya know...only they can fix themselves........some will bite the hand of someone helping..you help then you are the bad guy..I have done it I have been there..not on drugs...but I helped someone try to get clean....it don't aways work out for the better of anyone.so ????. ....
In that state she can’t reflect on her life... she can’t be rational... it’s an endless circle that she can’t break out right now. Doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Sometimes a push from someone who isn’t involved is needed. Drug addicts are like children. You need to take them by the hand. She’s so miserable cause of her state that she thinks the solution is more drugs even though she wants to break out... it’s a matter we can’t understand cause we’re not addicted. She’s weak and that’s no crime she just needs more strength to get out
I used to cry on the way to my dealer when I was on heroin. I didn't want to, I had to.
@@vanessaxcx7189 you are spot on.
Just listening to her made me cry, so many lost and hurting people out there.
Humanity! We need more of it...this is truly meat in heaven my friend...God bless you, what you do, the people that contribute and especially the PEOPLE you do it for. I can barely watch these videos...I cry nearly every time. These people need our help! The abused and desperate we treat like beasts...I see more humanity in her eyes than most people with a job and a warm home. I respect the uploader for both bravery, but taking the time to listen and give hope. What can I complain about in my life after listening to Jana? I pray that God sends his angels to watch over you and all that you do to help these people. It's a wonderful thing that you do. For God's sake please never stop.
Oh my gosh she's so beautiful
"I'm still a human being", never thought I'd tear up from a RUclips video.
reydelacosa Man, I feel ya there.
I know! It is so painful. I am praying for her.
Such a beautiful young woman, full of life and potential! It inspires me to see how much she wants to change, she still has a light in her eye.. I truly hope she can get the help she needs, I know she'd take it!
So I know Jana personally and have relations with her for about 7 or 8 years. I met her in the very early stages of mine and her addiction/using. I was very close with her being a seeing each other veryday and having some amazing good times , as well as sometimes some not so good times...obviously it's addicting right ? Lol but no matter what were into at the time she was always herself and the same loving , good hearted person always. She was beyond nice to any and everyone and A LOT of undeserving bad people. She went through a few toxic relationships that were nothing but unhealthy and traumatizing. But she was the girl who loved hard and didn't leave when she deserved so much better. She put up with abuse from several guys who also used and she used to cover it up instead of leaving. But Jana never let that take her heart and shine away ...jana was always still Jana. Her smile lights up the room and even in active bad addicton she STILL has that light and beauty to her. The last time I got to see and hug her was about a month ago maybe and she was okay. I see her often because she is squading out of a vacant bar in my negbiorhood, with her boyfriend, whom is also abusive. I was told that she jumped out of the bar window , or should say she "feel" but in reality it was to run away from his abuse. Smh she broke both legs in result to it but has recovered fine and walking. I try to check on her from time to time when I can and make sure she's fine. She always manages to get money off me after I get my hug from her tho lol but it's so worth it knowing it helps her. She is one of the most down to earth and caring person I've honestly ever met, yeah she is an addict but there is so much more to her that she is in my eyes. Addicting takes over the best of us unfortunately.
This lady reminds me of my mother. So much beauty and... good quality put inside her soul. Wanting to cook and write and enjoy/love humans around them, but the addiction has such a evil, tight grip. She’s so right about “those who aren’t in it don’t get it”. I judged my mother for a long time in my kid-teen years. As I’ve grown into a young women, I understand how humans... are human and can fall short. But it doesn’t change their heart.
This is why we need better care for trauma survivors, not just jail sentences for addicts.
Bad decisions she is responsible for. No sympathy here.
Death penalty would have been more effective. Like in Asian countries. If they did that 50 years ago her life would have been saved. Along with millions of others. It works. Most would never have had their first fix.
Well don’t 🗳 vote Republican then because all they do is cut funding for social programs!
@@kingtrance6826 ,,,,, They must of let you out of the crazy house early...
Spot on
This girl is so beautiful. My heart breaks seeing how sad she is
Very good vides - Kids must be able to watch these and see life as it really is.........Maybe just maybe we can slow down the urge and desire to get "HIGH" in this Country.
but always remember that most addictions are symptoms of illness!!
Praying for this girl. 🙏❤️
