- Afghanistan has one of the world’s highest drug addiction rates. According to the Taliban, there are an estimated four million drug addicts across the country.
Babrak, a former mujahideen fighter, used to be one of them. Now, he is committed to supporting addicts to detox in one of the capital’s under-resourced drug rehabilitation hospitals.
Since the Taliban took power in 2021, international aid has been withdrawn and public services are on the brink of collapse. Babrak and a handful of medical staff struggle to offer a line of hope as the Taliban's anti-drug policies are put into action.
A Second Shot is a film by Marcel Mettelsiefen.

Qatari wahabi agenda vs Saudi wahabi agenda? 😂😂
The gift of democracy and 20 years of occupation brought significant challenges to Afghanistan. The previous governments in Afghanistan were marked by corruption and instability. Warlords, drug dealers, and mafia elements held positions of power within the government, leading to widespread lawlessness and insecurity. Even near the presidential palace, people were not safe and faced frequent robberies.
During this dark period, kidnapping, land grabbing, and embezzlement of public funds were everyday occurrences. Bribery was rampant within governmental offices, further perpetuating a culture of corruption. The president lacked the authority to make meaningful changes, as the country was effectively controlled by powerful drug dealers and warlords. Police officers and military personnel often engaged in extortion, stopping individuals on the streets for money.
Regrettably, drug abuse was pervasive among high school and university students, regardless of gender. Additionally, distressingly, there were training centers where women were taught how to engage in kidnapping activities. These circumstances were further exacerbated by the unfortunate support provided by Western countries to these unsavory individuals over the span of 20 years.
carry him carefully, he was a muslim? if he wasn't you would carry him recklessly? wtf Al Jazeera racist, discriminating, nothing new, islam touch islam destroy
I reported you to RUclips staff for discrimination
This because of American rule
I just want Afghanistan to grow and succeed. They went through a lot. They deserve to be in peace.
It won't succeed, see with Pakistan seeing Afghanistan as its fundamental threat, with backing of British and the western countries on Pakistan side, Afghanistan 🇦🇫 has no friends or allies, the domestic division due to wars and Afghanistan waters flowing into neighbouring countries, as an Afghan I can say that Afghanistan is a perfect recipe for its neighbours and the regional powers to manipulate it to their interest use
Taliban won’t help them do either lol
@@zm9419 What? They fought and defeated the US-Led Coalition to protect their country. Before that they defeated the Soviet Union, don't make stupid comments they were invaded each time. They are now rebuilding despite all the sanctions lmao.
@fsdfsdfsd4561
Anyone that Pakistan don't like, it means that person is good for Afghanistan. Talibans are heroes of Pakistan so the rebuilding that they are doing are all the projects of previous government and presidents
@@Mu5tyLaghmani almost had a stroke reading this
This is heartbreaking. God bless these people who gave these men back their dignity. May God bless all of you.
Which God
What dignity? Sending them back out & nothings changed, no food= take opium; boredom=take opium, winter temps --20*c= take opium. These men are often worse off cos the few who have never touched drugs now have no family or jobs. It's a F....d situation no doubt but this is not helping them. Some speak the truth & others toady the Taliban while on film.

I was a drug addict for over 30 years I lost my children and a wonderful wife due to my addiction. I destroyed my life in so many ways. Now I’m 52 years old and I been clean for 5 years. I have my own apartment and car and I’m slowly rebuilding a relationship with my kids. It hasn’t been easy but with Gods help it could be done.
Proud of you ! And most of all you should be proud of yourself ! 👏🏼
Keep loving your children much more, and your Spiritual Father so much more! You can make it
God dosent exist u dumbwit Its what you do, and not a fictional cloud rider. Use your brain please.
Eish you the best 👏🏻
Way to go! With God, ALL things are possible. Keep going 🙌🏾🙏🏾
I've worked in substance abuse field for years in the USA. It's the most rewarding work. Hard work, but worth it. To see people change their lives around for the better, become healthier, and repair relationships, is just so beautiful. Watching the hopeless become hopeful, the scared become brave, and the uninterested become the most motivated. It's so beautiful. I've met some amazing and incredibly intelligent people. The stigma in the USA is that addicts are unintelligent criminals. I've met psychiatrists who were detoxing. Doctors who were detoxing, forensic scientists in rehab, teachers, CNAs, artists, bakers, police officers, fire fighters, so many people. People are more than their addictions. Addicts are not their addiction. It does not define who they are. Please be kind and help those in need. Narcan training is often free at local Healthcare facilities.

Beautiful? The lives they have ruined
@@ralphthebulldog5163 beautiful as in fixing their lives, making amends, and getting sober. Obviously.
This isn't treatment. It is a brutal and deadly Russian roulette of who succumbs and doesn't to withdrawal. Those that actually survive then released with no coping skills, jobs only to re-enter their addiction with a massive rate of immediate overdose & death.
@@ScooterFarts if that's your experience, I'm sorry.
Great but sad documentary. The guy at the beginning who said the one thing worse than misery is poverty was spot on. 99% of the time people use drugs as a means of escape because they don’t like their life.
"99% of the time people use drugs as a means of escape because they don’t like their life." You sir, seem the only intellectial person here!
@@neerodenna Afghanistan is still the biggest supplier of opium, the Taliban say they are cracking down but it is the country's primary source of income. Many of the addicts aren't buying the drugs, they are taking what they can while they work the poppy fields.

How can these people afford cocaine and heroin if no money?

After Watching this documentary I cant Control my tears I Salute to that Uncle Babrak for his selfless efforts to rebuild Afganistan in his own unique way.
Kudous to Aljazeera they always make wonderful documentaries. Love and Dua from India....
Iran needs to go into afghanistan and help the khorossani Persians establish their own state there.
You realize how hypocritic this is? They punish the Afghhan people in this "reha" Prisons and they dont get proper treatment. the State penalizes drugs to an extreme extent. At the same time heroine is one of the main exports of the Islamic afghan state.
Ah yes kidnapping people off the street is really helping them. You sir are brain dead and coming from India probably inbred
@@mustaphamond5819The Taliban (and Al Qaeda) were involved in the production and trade of heroin for many years.
Kidnapping, imprisoning, beatings and torture is NOT the answer.
I was a herion addict, and its amazing to see the struggle they have in their country. We have all the help, support and medication to help. They have no medication just strenth and endurance. I wish them all the best.
This is one of the best heartfelt documentaries Ive seen in quite some time.
I admire the time and sacrifice the Babrak have given to each survivor to ensure their recovery and give them a chance to reintegrate back into society.
Such a great documentary, I couldn't stop watching it till the end, feel sorry for our neighboring brothers and their economic conditions but the courage of some people who are running this rehab is beyond words to do justice to their honest fight against this drug addiction.

34:09 Babrek is hero. Even tho he’s not writing off the fact that the country has a economy problems, he’s still trying to tell them to be responsible of your actions. What a guy. The world should help this guy.
Didn't think I would, but I watched it all intently. Provoking, heart breaking, but also a strong sense of brotherly love. Uncle Babrak is doing great work with limited resources. I sincerely hope these people can find a path without drug addiction going forward.

I started doing drugs since my teenage, got addicted to heroin. Spent my whole life fighting heroin addiction. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. This is something that really need to be use globally to help people with related health challenges.
Amen God bless people. Save your health save your mind. Life is better without heroin, cocaine, alcohol and cigarettes. And you have more money in your pocket. God bless everyone who has rejected the devils intentions to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes etc which can cause so much damage to health.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Australia. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. 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'm really happy for you that your mom decided to help you...I hear about alot of family members or so called friends shutting an addict out of their life, which since most addicts do it to mask emotions to me is the worse thing someone can do to an addict.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
Being trapped in alcohol addictions. This makes me cry to see people like that man. What a great cause to live.
It’s all about will and understanding oneself
May god never let you have to deal with addiction. Even science has started acknowlede this part as being illness. Did you know in video they are addressed as patients.
r u talking about that bully?
Stay strong bro. You’re bigger than the addiction. You’ll pull through. You’ll win the fight biidhnillah.
That happens in all the world, come to Scotland to see what drug addiction is
Comment to the gentleman that used to be an addict and now works with addicts:
The man wasn't blaming. He was explaining what incidents led him to drugs.
War causes many people to become addicts. One thing I learned in 20 years of counseling is never to discount anyone's feelings. I am a female military veteran. I was addicted for 25yrs to opiates.
You are so strong!! God bless you, and keep safe 🙏 ❤️ Thank you for your service.
PTSD from all the paperwork and logistics?
I agree.
Babrak was probably covering for the Government. The addict in question is entirely correct. Babrak is the one talking about hope and responsibility. He's got a good NGO/Government job.
@@frostystoneman3273 Hi frosty, I don't think Babrak was covering for the govt. I think he was trying to teach them accountability for thier actions. Of course you are right, thier Goverment and country is in shambles because of the war and its not the addicts fault. I think Babrak was trying to get them to change angles on the problem and foucus on what they can change and not foucus on things that are out of thier control. 😃
When you don't have a problem and you take drugs that's when you know you're in trouble you take it without a problem whether you are that's not right when you take it and you got a problem least you know why you're taking it
I was a heroin addict for 18 years and this video made me cry. I felt their pain and it breaks my heart to know that my own country is the cause of the worst of the world's problems 😢
Wow someone said outloud

@@jakobaa9031 it is your fault , you attacked their country
As a Muslim, this documentary tearing my heart apart. We always pray for your betterment Afghanistan. Muslim from all over the world love you 🇦🇫
hope they make od all those.
Your prayers won‘t help this people. They experience extreme poverty on a daily basis.
They need investments in education, health care (especially mental health care) and infrastructure.
The society desperately needs a social security net.
The ultra-rich Arab countries need to stop building mosques around the world, we have enough of those - they need to invest in Afghanistan.
But there is a huge problem: Taliban.
Taliban are religious fundamentalists, they have no idea how to govern a country.
you should respect all religious beliefs: christians, jews, buddhists, induists, taoists, confucianists, sikhs, shintoists, animists, atheists... you're not a supremacist religion, respect the others
@@cremisiketchup less cry.Keep this country white.
The Taliban keeps them poor, hungry, wounded and drug addicted.
You are giving these men back their dignity.
God bless you and God bless every one of them and their families. What an important difference you are making in this world.
He is one amazing, beautiful soul. Turned his suffering ing a light to guide others. Feel for every single one and I hope better times are ahead for each and every one of them.
bless this man for doing what he can, we all have our addictions some less severe than others but all bad and I'm sure like the man said we'd never wish those days on our worst enemy astaghfirullah
Thank you for your kind heart in helping out the helpless and hopeless citizens. May Allah reward you all abundantly.

Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
A lot of people have testified about this and I really want to give it a shot. I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
You and you alone saved your own life. Remember that.

This documentary saddens me, and I wish Afghanistan a brighter future. The man talking on top of the bunk bed spoke some truths. The population is living in poverty, uneducated, no jobs and no future. Education is key to bringing a nation out of poverty and I hope the Taliban realise this and implement schools in all regions of Afghanistan. I wish Afghanistan all the best and would love to go back in the near future!
Taliban is terrorist
they think islam is education and that is the root of all problems... religiots
Sad to say but it is a lost cause now
Unfortunately they are engrossed in the externals - moral policing. Real education that spurs economy, jobs etc are not a priority...heaven is. There is a saying - so heavenly minded that one becomes useless on earth.

I was a heroin, fentanyl and crack addict for over 10 years. I went to prison in 2019 and found out I Was pregnant when I got there. My son saved my life. Jail saved both of our lives. I am so thankful for my life now.
That's so awesome sis I hate to say it but I was blessed by going to prison and I was praying for freedom from my addiction and begging for God's help and then I was super angry at God for a couple of years and didn't even pray but by the end of my 5 years I realized that He saved me and it was one of the biggest blessings of my life even though I hated most of it I learned so much about life and people and I read a lot and it was absolutely helped me in every way plus I got off cigs
What does fentanyl feel like
@@millyyeasmin7904 lmao, not the best place to ask this
@@millyyeasmin7904 it feels like chinese capitalism.
My dear brother, what you did for your fellow Afghans brothers who is addicted, it is amazing. It is hard to stop addiction, but you have freed most of them from drugs. You will get youre reward from God. Long live Afghanistan
From what you’ve shown here it looks like they’re doing great work. I know that no matter how nice a rehab is the patients will complain. It’s good to see that this is available but sad that it’s overwhelmed and underfunded.
I really felt the respect from the healthcare professionals for the patients.
They treated them like prisoners.....

Were you expecting a lollipop after a dental visit?
Bundles of thanks to these volunteers..it is great initiative to help them recover..
Such a touching docu. I wish all these men the very best and may God heal them forever from the power of drugs.
Thank you for taking the time to share your comment with us, dear Lori. We appreciate it.
Babrak is truly heaven sent, the world needs more like him in this world.
I am from America actually I live in Texas and America is not doing anything for their homeless and their drug addicts I am so glad to see that Afghanistan is trying to help their people may God bless you and keep you in the name of Jesus Christ amen
Amen brothers.jesus king of the king.
We appreciate your sympathy All respect to you, your people and your religion
Hello mm3528, i would agree but in defense of America we are trying to solve our issues but with the historical atrocities in America there is a thin line between helping out addicts or helping to further abuse addicts. I"m actually watching this to see their solution.
That's because pharma has money in government
Because a homeless man is U.S.A. has more rights. Taking someone by force is not the move. Sadly though it may seem wrong not giving them help, help is out there and homes there are many social helps here in LA for housing but they have to pass drug tests which makes it pointless to fund it if they are not occupied.
Imagine getting kidnapped without no warning to any family or kids if u provide lmaooo that’s a crazy lawsuit
My heart is broken....broken...
One day I will visit this beautiful country with its welcoming people. Peace to Afghanistan.
InshAllah Afghan people will rise from the decades of war and unease. Just watching the people like Babrak gives me hope that the country will rebuild itself with time
Afganistan is facing really bad economic crisis, water and food shortages. I doubt that the things will improve, especially when you have hard-line schizos in control...
@@akuankka321876bro be a bit optimistic. Always have some hope
Aameen
@@akuankka321876all you know is complain.
Kidnapping, imprisoning, beatings and torture is NOT the answer.
Babrak and all the staff, including the doctor, the cooks, May God bless you all.
Iran needs to go into afghanistan and help the khorossani Persians establish their own state there.
ameen brother
Not the users tho. Just the guys kidnapping people off the street - robbing them off the belongings and beating them. (God bless those people) :D
I salute the guy for his selfless help
Drugs are affecting most countries, i am a recovering addict also 🇿🇦,
Happy and proud to see people who are like Babrak making a huge difference, May The creator grant us peace ❤
I am also addicted, but I am free now, because of God..
Are you on any medications ?
Try the Narcotics Anonymous program it will help to cure physically, mentally and spiritually.
Absolutely heart breaking... The poverty, the capacity to survive in apocalyptic conditions, makes the drops of humanity, compassion and hope glimmer all the more. God save this magnificent lost potential. First class documentary making.
Don't be too fooled. They need workers is all. Who else but the poor to work and keep the country going while the ppl in charge do nothing and squander money.
He's not perfect, we don't deserve him but he's the hero most of part of the world needed.
The problem that I see with this hero-worshipping thing is that in the end, it only creates inflated egos and abuse of power. I can see this falling onto corruption in a decade, as there seems to be not counter-balance and somebody who checks on him. "All power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." I am not claiming that what he is doing is bad, but there is something about the maverick about him and the way he goes around things, in my opinion.
@@LisaSimpsonRulesyou're totally right
@@AamuAurora I wish I am wrong and this guy will keep to the narrow end of things and just helping people out generously. I DO wish I am completely wrong.
Kidnapping, imprisoning, beatings and torture is NOT the answer.
@@LisaSimpsonRulesI can see corruption coming in once they start bringing women into these facilities
The man who says "I had better clothes when I was using drugs" is in the state of denial. That's rough.
I was looking for this comment
He is still extremely addicted, sadly
It’s in the eyes, they show his heart & mind were still under the effects of the drug & it’s withdrawal. It’s a long process & anger’s often part of that. All so sad
You don't have to be in denial to say the truth., it's easy to say from the internet.
bro its a mental hospital. here in america they give you a gown that looks ten sizes too big. its detox not vacation
God bless the man who is truly trying to help those that are sick and suffering from addiction.. It's bad enough that they have to detox cold turkey especially with heroin that's pure.. At least they are understanding with the people while they are going through.. Here in America they don't want to deal with addicts while they're detoxing.. I truly pray that they are able to continue to get the support so they can continue to help people.. And that man truly needs to be recognized for what he's doing.. Especially where you can see how sincere he really is.. God Bless all of them
Its really heartening to see a county, which underwent series of invasions and military conflicts, is settling down now and doing these social activities to bring back stability strengthen people's hope in their motherland. Salute to them.
❤❤❤
"people" = men. There is no hope for the women of Afghanistan under the Taliban. I'm not heartened.
Thank you for love, compassion and kindness.
Totally enjoyed this documentary. Wishing Afghanistan well wishes and a brighter future.
May God reward the people who are helping the addicts get clean. May He give strength to the addicts who are in the process of recovery and may He give hope to the ones who are in active addiction.
The man and the whole team is really doing great job
Love from Nepal.. A great love to all the medical staffs, volunteer and the team members
I have afghan refugee friends, they are the nicest people you'll ever meet, greetings from Ireland
Gracias Señor por. Devolver la dignidad a estos hombres y a sus familias.

Who? The guy that kidnaps addicts off the street and forces them through medically dangerous withdrawals before throwing them back to the wolves!

Kidnapping people off the street. Torture, beatings and forced into being sober is NOT the answer. This is treating humans like animals - we should do better!
@@jakobaa9031ok friend, now you're trolling. That's not good.
@@Blacattacsquadron How is that? We have evidence based treatment which we know works. WHy kidnap, torture and beat people?
Salute to all the men who are helping these men to get out of drug addiction
Compulsory treatment has abysmal outcomes
@@snjspring Some even suicide. But that's the point, the fittest survive.
The sad truth is that caring for others is not worth it for Afghanistan now!
I wish them all the best in their recovery. I hope the centre receives more international and national aid to help support the great work that they are doing for the communities.
These people aren’t going to stay sober because they aren’t ready to. Addicts like myself cannot maintain sobriety if we do not actually want to be sober.
Thanks for showing this to the WORLD.. "it takes one to know one" because he went through the same experienced and made it possible for him to stopped it completely now his time to help others as well. GOD BLESS TO THE PEOPLE BEHIND MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO TREAT THEM. Continue spreading LOVE AND KINDNESS...
It was amazing to have watched this documentary. I felt the love and compassion given by the health professionals (especially this guy sharing his own experience) and teaching these men about the reality of their country. The world would be much better without drugs!
Kidnapping people off the street. Torture, beatings and forced into being sober is NOT the answer. This is treating humans like animals - we should do better!
Did you not see one guy get hit? I can't imagine what they do when the cameras aren't there
You are derranged! It's torture, are you blind?
Yea these ppl will use as soon as they're released. The country doesn't have methadone or suboxone or any drug that will help them. Maybe one or two will get clean and I guess that's something but it's sad that these ppl are too far gone. If we in the usa can't get this under control can u imagine the monumental challenge of trying this in the poorest nation on earth....
@@mi5iu491 drugs are not the only answer! We have evidence based treatment! One or two will get clean? And how many will kill themselves in the process? How can you justify this?
I'ts heartbreaking to see so much suffering. You do an amazing work to help addicted with so little money,no medicin,not enough of food. I'll pray for a better life for everyone in Afghanistan ♥

@@jakobaa9031 they are living like animals already. This is the compassionate approach, force them out of addiction and into recovery. They have lost the power to choose through their addiction. Sorry to say it, but your "compassion" will kill people. Be mindful of that.
Powerful documentary. I realize there's addiction all around the globe, but I wasn't aware of Afghanistan's high percentage whatsoever. My heart hurts for these people and their families and I hope they find relief before it's too late. Being from the US, anything that`s not doctor prescribed has a high likelihood it is fentynal laced. At 43, I can easily name over 10 people, I consider friends who have died in the past 3 years. These people aren't on the streets but have a nice life, a wealthy life. Every single time a person gets heroin, there's a chance they won't live past the first hi, and they know it. It's terrifying and so sad.
Many countries have been mistaken before, thinking that just selling the drugs, passing them on, will not affect them whatsoever. And what happens next, to the next generation? That they have a drug problem out of control that they have created themselves.
Considering its against their religion
@@mattpowell6291 I don't care about that. It should be common sense.
@@LisaSimpsonRules That comment wasn't for you. Are you a Muslim?
@@LisaSimpsonRulesright on ✊. The Taliban constantly are finding and cutting down the poppy fields they find. If they meet resistance they pretty much will take them out or confiscate their land. That is true, Osama allowed those fields for guns and ammunition and such. But the buck stopped after his death. And his followers had to get in line or get wiped out.
His such a good man helping these men off addiction after he got clean. It shows there is good people everywhere in this world. Why is there war only because of greed the high up people it’s not the normal everyday people that have the same struggles everyone else has when it comes to addiction. Me being once addicted too.
15:11 almost cried with the brother fr his kids. What a wholesome docu. Thank you AJ.
“if he was outside, he wouldn’t even remember his children” that made much more sense. Those were nothing but crocodile tears.
@@yamamjn9988 it wasn't crocodile tears, it just means that he don't want to remember his children because this give him pain, so he take drug to stop the pain but stopping the pain implies to forget his children.
Babrak's speech that he gives to the patients at 34:10 about the need for personal responsibility and self-awareness of our actions in life, you can tell comes from a place of sincerity and experience.
It is only by looking inward that we can ever truly grow outward.
Beautifully written 👏🏻👏🏻
Kidnapping, imprisoning, beatings and torture is NOT the answer.
They should learn from U.s goverment how to deal with drugh addict
@@velzz4016 Why learn from another failed state? How about the places where treatment actually work?
That's true and ultimately why this "therapy" is deeply flawed. Without voluntary commitment of the patients, lasting changes will be harder to achieve. Afghan solutions for Afghan problems I suppose. @@jakobaa9031
My country and many countries have a huge drug addiction problem. Addicts do make lives difficult for everyone due to the crimes they commit. People addicted to cocaine and meth amphetimines experience drug induced psychosis and they tend to be violent. This documentary nearly had me in tears. I was so happy to see this. It gives me hope. I hope they get the money they need to continue their work and able to up the standards of the aid they give to addicts. I wish my country had something like this program.
Wake up you actually think this was put on here to get money for the addict think again.
Have you ever seen an addict invade and destabilize a country? Capitalist and imperialist are a far bigger problem than addicts
