    I started doing drugs since my teenage, got addicted to cocaine. Spent my whole life fighting cocaine addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with OCD. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

      Congrats! I'm really happy for you that your wife decided to help you. I always admire those who beat their addiction. Knowing it's possible to fix your life knowing there's people out there that have done what I thought was impossible gives me hope I will make it through as well. Those who share their experiences don't know how much it helps when you're about to give up, it gives you the strength knowing somone who actully know what it's like to go through this tell you it's possible, it's not the same somone telling you you can do it when they have no idea what it's like, but hearing somone who knows what it's like that helps a lot since you understand it firsthand and made it out gives so much hope. so thanks for sharing.

    I never judge drug addicts because I have heard too many stories like this. How can someone who had a childhood like his be expected to thrive? You can tell this man has a good soul. He had to go through so much but I am glad he has come out at the end with a happy relationship and child. I wish him all the best that life has to offer and hope he continues to be happy and makes sure that his child has a better time of it than he did.

    As a age old true saying goes "Never judge a book by it's cover". This was a very sad tragic life that came good and found peace in the end... Full respects to Marvin and hope he remains happy and whole throughout his life's journey.

    The strength of this man is unreal.
    From coming to terms with adoption, a foster dad beating him, years of rape, drug abuse, crime & in and out the prison system. Yet look at him now, living his life with his REAL family and now had your own family, experiencing happiness ❤ Marvin you are inspiring😊!

    This man is trying his best, he is off the drugs and he has a kiddo. Now stories over coming addiction is just amazing. As a former addict myself, I love hearing people sober up and take control of their lives. I am proud of anyone choosing to be sober, no matter where they come from. Being sober and staying sober is hard but the rewards after being sober is all worth it.

    This person's story is just so incredible. It's almost unimaginable to think someone has actually been through all that, and at those young ages too.

    This is the kinda guy I could take to the pub and listen to his life, introduce him to people and help him regain a sense of worthiness.
    His voice is so peaceful with a sense of love and caring to it. I could listen to him for a long time.
    I dont like judging people in general without knowing them, nor criitsising, however, this guy has had it harder than I have, but i can relate to some of his problems. I went through the same too. Blessed be to the guy. Much respect for turning his life around after what hes been through.
