    People make mistakes. No one deserves to be on the street. No one.

      As a Codeine addict, all I think about is smoking Heroin.

      Sometimes it really isn't that easy brother. You wouldn't believe the abuse some people go through, and the isolation they live in, the mind can become a very dangerous thing, mental health is as real as anything else. Not everyone thinks about going for a run or doing a set of pushups when they feel shit, they spiral and spiral, addictions develop and before they know it they're on the street.
      My Grandad was an alcoholic who drank himself to death on a council estate in Harlow, his brother killed his dad (WW2 PTSD) and after that point he developed an addiction to alcohol, he had liver failure and lung cancer, the only thing he cared about was getting that alcohol in him, nobody could stop him, I was too young to intervene.
      I think if all men did a combat sport like Jiu Jitsu or something men's mental health would be much less of a problem. The issue with mental health services is it's designed to treat women, not men.

      @@hooovyedgeIt isn’t designed to treat women at all plenty of women get ignored I saw adverts all the time for mental health services for men not for women. That’s just wrong what you are saying.

    Seems sincere and sorry and willing to change all he has is Hope ! Maybe nervous confused and probably on methadone script but that's were the change begins fir those that want it !
    I hope he finds faith 🙏
    And someone leads him down the true path to real recovery.. even though only 3% make it the rest die or carry on till they do inevitably die through cirrhosis and hep c hiv are even murdered ! That's the reality of the streets!
    I pray he find the rooms ... NA AA CA 💖 GOD BLESS FELLA !

    Utter rubbish he is not on the street because his cscs card ran out lol. I don't care what anyone says I have personal experience so I do know first hand. These people do absolutely nothing but make excuses, it is a lifestyle choice
