Almost 2 years sober from fent and benzos.
Congrats 🎉 I hear those withdrawals are brutal!
@@kikachuuuu I've been sober for the last 15 + yrs and Yup withdrawals could kill you if u don't seek help from medical professionals related to addiction. Seriously, pain is unbearable and undescribable.
MAJOR RESPECT from a methadone user, and benzo "abuser" (given from prescription, BC of mental illness). I'm terrified of something happening that my drugs will stop coming. It's a worse fear then starving to death.
Congratulations! Hope you continue with your success.
Now that is something to be proud of brother! 🤘👏
12 years sober from cocaine. I looked at myself in the mirror one day, cried, and flushed my coke. Never looked back.. only forward with no drugs
Same, except my rock bottom was my dog attacking me for being strung out it was horrible, flushed my stash and haven’t looked back. Thanks to my baby boy ❤
Proud of you
Did u do it urself or go to AA or rehab. Just curious.
No !!!she most likely lied to us because thats what addicts do lie and manipulate, that or she was snorting sugarcane or dextrose and wasn't addicted likely just tried it to be cool but it must have been garbage and if true write us a novel about being the only person in the world ever who just dropped it cold turkey otherwise stop lying to yourself because i aint buying it
Drugs is bad for you. You should never do them. I learn this from my parents and I only 12 and already know this. Even beers or alcoholl is drug. And also some medicines from a doctor are drugs too.
19 years clean of heroin here. More than grateful to be out of that neverending circle that gets deeper each loop.
4 yrs clean of hard drugs. 5 yrs without smoking a cigarette.
god bless you
You sir, you have my salute!!! Keep it up. Life without drugs is not "easy" meaning you need different ways to keep your mind occupied, but Im sure youve found that purpose.
Nobody cares
Going on 7 years clean and sober recovery is life long..God be with us
God doesn't come and tell you have some coco or have some meth or dont. Stop believing in fairy tales mate.
So great..so free of slavery and full of self belief and freedom ...GO GO AND NEVER STOP ...BELEIVE IN ONESELF ...NEVER BE A SLAVE TO SUBSTANCE AGAIN... BE BRAVE ...LOVE AND GOD AND BLESSINGS AND SELF BELIEF FOR EVER....FREEDOM..
YES! GREAT FOR YOU! Now go be the best you that you can be! Loves hugs n prayers.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Take Psychedelics like Psilocybin, you won't relapse and will find a meaning to your life.
how is the doctor so proud of himself? hes literally a drug dealer that once pledged to help and heal patients and now doesnt care
This make true suffers of chronic pain the inability to aquire medicine. Thanks a whole lot
Tell me about it. My Drs won't give me anything and I have bone on bone arthritis in both knees and an herniated disc
@Sapphire_16 I've been trying to get Medicinal plants legalized.
At least we could grow our own meds. Much safer also.

Do you think you have a drug problem ?

No , I have money now

28:48 "It's kind of a luxury to have a heroin addiction" that has gotta be the dumbest thing I've heard in a while

Only if you can easily afford it and never have to street cop or get off alone

Dripp'n in addiction
Just goes to show what drugs can do to your thinking
This was a good one! I’m a week into my final “detox” It’s been a months long “tapering” for me. From a peak of 400 + mgs of oxy/day and now I’m down to aprox 24 mgs of hydromorph/day and my step off day is two weeks away! For over five months I’ve been “tapering” - every step down has brought days of pain, loose bowels, nausea and anxiety. It’s been going on for months! I’m sooo invested now, I can’t quit quitting ! My dream of freedom from opiates is within reach.
I’m doing a steady diet of these sort of vids to keep me motivated.
Peace
Go you! I keep trying and failing. I don't have any help. I'm currently trying to get insurance to help myself and go to rehab.,
you kinda helped and inspired me to say the least. I just need to get past that horrible part you were saying you got past. Congrats and hope you see it all the way through. Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. ✨
Sending you good days ahead and the wind at your back!
@@latishacampbell9398 I think tapering is a really good start. Try using a little less each week and keep working at it!
@@latishacampbell9398 Suboxone has saved my life before. I was on a very low dose for many years & never used illicit opioids again. Ibogaine is the best treatment currently known for opioid addiction, though.
@@latishacampbell9398 Hitch your wagon to a star, and then get out and push.
I recently lost a young adult cousin due to fent addiction. He choked to death due to respiratory failure. He left behind an infant son and a heavily broken-hearted family.
I'm sorry for ur loss and I'm sorry someone didn't have narcan on them to help
I am so sorry for your loss...
@@Jenny-uv4dl Why keep drug addicts alive? I'm not sorry. One less life-destroying parasite. Now, who gets the joy of raising his kid?
I shot Heroin for 20 years. What made me stop was 2 overdoses in the same day, due to Fentanyl in the Heroin. My dealer that I had known for 15 years told me Fentanyl was in the mix and to be careful as he always did. So I did a tester shot that was very small, but it still caused an OD. I left the hospital and did an even smaller shot, maybe 10% of what I usually did, and still it put me out. So I switched to Medical Marijuana and Kratom to get through the withdrawals symptoms that was 15 months ago. For the 1st time in 20 years I don't crave heroin. It feel good now, but it is still weird to me.
Well done you 🤗
Best wishes 😻
@@suzycat2026 Thanks, I'm finally getting some Serotonin produced by my brain, so I feel pretty good now
That's good to hear @@cswartz5975 I know how difficult it is, we didn't have the fentanyl problem in UK when I was involved. You were very lucky indeed.
13years stopped for me & why it still feels weird seeing big pupils in mirror. 😁
Weed is good, sometimes micro dose with local mushrooms in Winter.
You will feel better every day from now on. 🌻🌊 Make sure right B,C,D vitamins & drink lots water. Fasting for 2days helps detox.
Nature is a healer too. 🌿☀️🦅
You do this for you & your life will improve. Best of wishes, & strength friend. 🙂
@@suzycat2026 Yes, I am currently looking into getting some shrooms to micro dose. Thanks for the wishes
Im on my way trying to recover from 13 yrs of booze and drugs. well done dude
I left Cape Town, South Africa for a vacation in LA in 2006. I thought it would be glamourous like the movies... I felt unsafe like I was back in South Africa haha
Yeah because the Democrats and all the thugs and all the Mexican cartels trying to make money that's why Democrats don't care all they want is your vote and the New World Order
Interesting 🤔
No doubt.
When I saw a documentary on Cape town I saw major similarities between cape town and American ghetto life.
The glamorous parts of L.A. are actually in the surrounding cities. The city of Los Angeles itself its very grimey.
The war on drugs was lost a long time ago.
Too many people made careers and fortunes out of it so it'll keep it going on.
The Government Cartel was never going to let "Just Say No" actually accomplish anything, much less law enforcement. Elites make billions off of the lives of the little-people...or should I say make billions off of the DEATHS of the little-people?
On purpose
Never was a war.
War on drug's is a war on the people.
That young lady "Dethy" is a spoiled brat. She lives in her parent's pool house, presumably for free. Who pays for all her partying? Who pays for her gas to drive around? Who pays for her wine? In other words, who pays for her lifestyle? If it's her parents shame on them! She needs to take some responsibility for her own life.
Dethy does give the impression of just coasting along getting other people to take responsibility for her and I must say she does NOT look good, the way she is going she is going to keep on knocking and fame will never answer, but it does not seem to bother her she should wake up and get a life
So many people I Kno that r like that. The world is doomed
@@michelleduplooymalherbe2837 The video states her age as 22. She looks like going on 40. What a horrible way to live. What are these "parties" she keeps talking about? As if she is going to be "discovered" at one.
@@zethraelofteldrassil3149 delusions of grandeur.....lol
@@zethraelofteldrassil3149
That was my first thought. She looks so much older not 22 yrs old. So sad
The real insanity is the dr who got 3 years probation after all he did. Just because he’s a dr they are lenient. Ridiculous
I was shocked at that too!! How much damage did that "doctor" do? What was the cost to society? He lost his license and got free 1 yr rehab somewhere nice, then 3 yrs probation. No one questioned this?
Welcome to USA..
I agree
She said she had to stop because she couldn't afford heroin? Then u clearly weren't addicted because money never stopped any addict I know from getting their fix
Then she was not addicted, because it dont go that way, those Oxycontin pills were 30$ and 40$ a pill on the street, so mom and dad probably said your cut off i am not giving you that much money anymore , people who never said they would touch Heroin are buying it because its cheaper $10 for bag of dope, fentaynol is 10 times stronger more dangerous you only get a small amount in a bag and 1 small bump you might not wake up again.
You’re partially correct. Bc I believe it depends on what’s the particular addict’s drug of choice. Some drugs are ver expensive, but in case of heroin, I think an addict will always be able to come up with enough money one way or another to get his/her fix. She said some other things in there that are dumb, stupid and have nothing to do with the reality and actual life of an addict, from what I’ve seen so many times for so long all around me in actual real life and on the streets, being a guy living in and around people from many different walks of life.
Exactly. I was a heroin addict and the cost was just part of getting it. There's tons of weekend warriors that think they are addicted but in reality they aren't physically hooked yet.
Some people choose to quit and be sick over committing crime and going into prostitution .... it’s the sensible option. If you’ve done heroin, you should know it doesn’t take long at all to get addicted. To suggest she wasn’t hooked is stupid to me. Heroin can make anyone chase it. She’s lucky she had the will power to stop 🛑. I sincerely doubt that she wasn’t addicted. Just wise enough to kick it when her money ran out. Power to her. She made a good decision. Shame she’s still using every other drug 🤦♂️
2:19 "Partying is sooo hard."
My response: "You are sooo not getting any sympathy from me."
Or me.

Smoked my first 'joint' in Hollywood Ca in 1967. Fifty-five years later it's still my go to wonder drug.
My heart ❤ goes out to all the Homeless Veterans in LA 🙏
Agreed. Also, my heart goes out to all the homeless population all across our nation.
@@simrdownmon6431 100% AGREED 🙏
My heart breaks for them
Definitely one of the most disturbing facts of the USA, as someone whos never been there. I will never really believe how many vets are just forgotten about and some of them so so young. Much love to all the Vets ❤
The biggest Adderall dealer in the state with over a million pills sold and he got three years probation!! Wow! I bet he had connections sure people had sold to that new the judge or DEA or something! Either way that's still crazy considering people get more than 3 years probation for getting caught with literally 1 or 2 pills!
"Free refills for all law enforcement and judicial employees"
That's how it's always been in Democrat states and cities. The drug dealers get off easy and the psychiatrists never do time.
@@lanthanumlanthanium6373 same in the red states

This doctor seems to regret only getting caught. He appears quite proud of himself for damaging so many lives. But he met Michael Douglas.
He looks like a user too....
I agree he looks high in this interview
I'm a former undercover narcotics detective for a multi jurisdictional federal task force. I was actively working undercover during the " pill mill " days. One Dr that I worked actually said he thought he deserved a medal during his interrogation. He thought he was doing society a favor by supplying oxys so people could overdose.
He’s frothing on the sides of his mouth lol.
Bizarre that the doc creators decided to focus on weed at the end, as if it’s in any way comparable to opioids or even benzos.
It's bc of the legalization. People prefer they harder illegal drugs then the legal ones
That dethy Debbie girl is truly ignorant 😂😂
she died along time ago
She's so edgy and cool! Even her name - DETHY. And a deep thinker too! She lives a hard life, living rent free with her parents and partying every night. I'm sure she's an A-lister by now, given how hard she clearly works, and how talented she clearly is.
Hella edgy Dethy! Doesn’t have that pesky rent crampin her awful style.
@@sleptandate3658 for real? Guess it's fitting given her name
@@randyjenkins8743 i mean spiritually lol
That psychiatrist is such an embarrassment. He's clearly proud of what he did and has ZERO moral compass. You can tell he's extremely insecure and has to be liked by everyone. Plus he's really soft too. Those are the most dangerous people because they talk too much and get you in trouble. That's the guy who brings the whole thing down.
I bet his own psychiatrist is treating him for narcissistic personality disorder and arrogance...
Psychiatrists are always nuts.
Yes dear he is clearly narcissistic and definitely has some undiagnosed or ignored mental illnesses
@@magicunclefergaloreilly6699 I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks that.
Yeah that Dr. is a certified kook, or croaker as they use to call them back in William S Burroughs day. That Dr should have his license revoked for life.
I can proudly say I have not touched meth since October 30th,1996
Im glad i got clean 2 years 8 months ago. Cleared up my legal issues now im starting to enjoy life

I’m a recovering addict, heroin and crack was my thing for nearly 30 years but have now been clean for just over 2 years. Breaks my heart when I hear it’s cool to be a smack head. Nothing cool about heroin and I mean nothing it grabs you to quick but super slow trying to get away from it. Choose life.
Congrats! 2 years is no small feat!
Most of the heroin addicts that I knew in the 70's and 80's died of AIDS or suicide from the depression. I still take tranquilizer meds for my LSD use in 1968 - 72. Age 70 and going strong. I think I'm one of a few people that's anti drug on the web. For me I only did weed and acid, so I was a lucky so and so.
Yeah that part was cringe. She was very focused on what looked cool. Sigh...
@@georgebuck2269 Wow from Acid? Can you elaborate and sense what was it that did you in? LSD can be really powerful in both good and bad ways ...
@@georgebuck2269
Orange Sunshine... Lucky you!
I've been sober since 11/16/16 and I do not miss anything about that life. I can't believe I wasted 21 years being wasted.
It all comes down to what type of person you are. I say to people if your a junky, go be a junky. if your not then straigten up and fly straight. Because I was born the straight and sober type it was easy for me. I'm still alive, with a functional brain at age 70. Most of my so called friends died of AIDS or suicide in the 80's and some overdosed as far back as 1970.
If you don't like people and they annoy you then you can just not go to parties... It's not like you HAVE to go. I agree when you're not drunk or high and around people that are drunk and high it's really hard to communicate with them, but I just stopped hanging out with those people instead of trying to impress them.
If that's how you make your money you HAVE to go and deal w people so yes some of us HAVE to go
Sorry you feel you need to impress others dont be like that. Dr. trying to look for acceptance.
I want to thank Drugs Inc. for using so many of my stock music compositions over the past twenty years. Seriously... thousands of dollars in royalties. Much appreciated.
Nice!!
People who seem to proud of dealing or doing drugs just get on my nerves.
I was in rehab in 1983 and have stayed drug-abuse free since around that time.
It's not an easy journey. People that are using or dealing who don't take the destructive power of addiction seriously need to GROW UP.
People on drugs don’t even care about themself why should the dealer
Happy for you turning your life around, honestly.
But there's no need to project your mindset onto others. You never know what brought someone to drugs or how many times they've tried to quit. Sometimes drugs are a last stop before suicide. Most often though, people are just casual users and never become addicted even with "hard" drugs. Only 1 in 4 heroin users becomes addicted for instance. Still, total abstinence is the only way to avoid ALL risk.
Nice. Congrats on your sobriety. Is there a rehab for attitudes???
@@genamariecardiel3000 Now that was a spicy comeback that cracked me up! LOL!!! touche my friend touche!!!
Because just growing up is going to change their brain composition and the compulsive nature of addiction.
That 22 yr old looks almost twice her age and has probably lived it.
Heartbreaking. Whenever you think you might have it bad in life, reflect on people like this who truly have for whatever reason (or poor decision) really hard lives.
Doc Hollywood has me cracking up. “ you gotta be like a hobbit , not like an orc”
No bs Dr k was my doctor talk about cool a cool guy
"I'm like.... Frodo"
“Riiiightt” 😂😂😂
That's when I knew he was cooked
I wouldnt be surprised if "Dethy" isnt dead by now and her parents hold a large amount of the blame by enabling her. She is a photo copy of my sister who is now dead. My mother helped her prolong her habit and avoid jail, which might have saved her life since she never faced consequences for her behavior.
Enabled her right into the grave for sure. I don't understand it. Jail would be a safe place and a way for her daughter to get clean and have a moment of clarity possibly. It baffles me how some "parents" will give their kids dope money. Never would I. Absolutely never. I'd take her to the methadone clinic, or rehab, detox, jail. That's it.
@@penelope-oe2vr jail is not safe bro. not even girl jail..
prison, jail, state hospital, whatever; it’s not a ‘safe-space’.
not in the US anyway.
You lost your sister way before she died like I did. Her enabler was another heroin addict. I tried everything I could. But to be a parent and an enabler... Those two words don't go together!
*So...just 'let go and abandon people to their fate'*
*Okay, then*
@@gerrynightingale9045 Yes!!! My sister refused to get clean after 4 stints in rehab. She bailed each time. She just had a beautiful grandson in February and verbally chose drugs over a relationship with her only son. She is 63 years old but looks like 86. I blocked her from my phone and my life.
This is why I can't get the proper medication that I need for my anxiety. I've taken adderall, and I always have a very bad time. I need xanax, legitemately... and I can't get it because of stuff like this
Or you need to stop believing in a system that creates phantom illnesses that are a complete modern phenomenon in order to keep afloat a multi-billion dollar industry by creating dependant, drug addicts - look up Aaron doughty and his realisations about adhd. This programme is purely propaganda. Look to spirituality - look to getting rid of fear by looking at love which is the strength of your true self 🙏🏻
The proper drug is clonazepam (klonipin) for long term stress relief. Xanax is just the short term high. It's in the same class of benzos as xanax. My doctor gives it out like it was candy.
If you have anxiety why were you taking Adderall???
Ativan gives anxiety, not cures it. You're better off talking to yourself and deep breathing.
I used to get Xanax in the mail
i get 5 years for getting myself high. He gets all of California high and he gets a year in rehab. It's awesome that people with money don't have to eve serve real jailtime
Hard to believe I survived all of that. Now 18 years clean and sober. Why are so many Americans so prone to addiction? This must be the drug capital of the world, right? The problem must be cultural in nature. We are not physically different from the rest of the world so it has to be the environment we live in. The extreme pressure to be successful in the way media has taught us that we need to be successful. In the process many fall by the wayside. I wish we could define success in a more healthy and sustainable way that doesn't leave so many people feeling like failures. Kind of explains all the mass shootings.
You can get caught selling meth there and just pay a fine and be out the same day... They also let ppl shootup/use in public. So obv the dealers LOVE that.,... But as long as they are on Skid Row and not in the "Nice parts" Where the Celebs/rich ppl live. They literally moved ALL the blocks of homeless everytime theres an award show... XDD I can stand Liberal Politic ran states :/
The rest of the world is quickly catching up with the US's drug epidemics.
Because we're demoralized and our borders wide open so the criminals and drugs flow freely and they love praying on the whites with money
Just go out in the big bad world.. drugs help you escape the torture, called Life.
Drug addiction is the manifestation of instant gratification. Addicts have no comprehension of delayed gratification, which actually creates dopamine, and makes you “happy” for lack of better words. Some homeless became addicts so they can stay awake and protect their stuff while living on the street. Those people have my empathy. Not so much the entitled brats like Dethy with doormats for parents.
I stopped giving to people on the streets a long time ago. The majority of them are either hustlers or drug addicts that choose this lifestyle . There are places they can go to get a ‘meal’. It is those places to which I will donate.
Using animals to garnish pity and get money is the absolute bottom. The Vet bought crack instead of something to help give he and his dog nutrients.
get off your high horse...
@@ceasarcruz8312 what does a horse smoke to get high.???
Have u donated yet?
How about asking what they need? Say I don’t have money but I can buy you whatever…that way they know they can’t buy drugs and will actually have you buy something they need…ask them “can I buy you some food?” Gatorade…socks….etc…just tell them you will buy them something and if they say they need money..then you know all they want is drugs and at least you tried

I’ve always thought that L.A and New York City looked dirty and unkempt. I always dreamed of living in one of those gorgeous old French Quarter homes with a shop in NOLA. I can’t believe the chick that lives in her parents pool house hasn’t been thrown out by said parents. My mom never would’ve tolerated me living in her property unemployed for any reason.
My Mom didn't have a fricking pool house so I moved out at 17 - she loved that!
The French quarter is pretty dirty
Tucson, AZ is a dirty dirty town. Lil’ Peep OD’d on bars (Xanax 2mg) and Fetty. Before his show. Anyone with a drug problem should stay as far away from Arizona as possible! For Reals.
🗣️That's because your mom never loved you ‼️
Ikr? She doesn't realize how good she has it. Her parents probably worry about her being homeless and unsafe, but she really should get herself together sooner rather than later.
So sad to hear people say that they've been using drugs since they were little. It's even more sad to see the statistics and how they show that children between the age of 12 and 14 have tried crack. I didn't even know what crack was until I was in my 20s.
Wow. That's crazy.
Yeah, unfortunately, my first interaction was with prescription opiates, for a few broken bones, prescribed to me by a doctor, and ever since I've been hooked on chasing that high. I was 14.
Like so many they gave out those pills like crazy. I remember when I was 16 in Kentucky not to long ago pills were the big killer
Me either. I didn’t even try marijuana til I was 25. I cannot imagine being a kid and suffering drug addiction…God help them. 😓
I was 12 years old when I tried my first drug. It was acid. All I was told was, "put this on your tongue and think happy thoughts". I had a nice, strong trip and fell in love with it from that day on. I started smoking pot at 12-13, drinking around the same time, then got into coke when I was 17. My first boyfriend introduced me to heroin close to my 18th birthday and shot me up. Heroin was the love of my life for the next 23 years. It worked like an antidepressant for me. I loved the comfort it gave me. I'm on methadone now but would probably still be doing it if it wasn't 90% fentanyl now. So maybe I was blessed but it's hard for me to see that. I miss it every day.
Lost my roommate to fentanyl two weeks ago. I had no idea he was doing it. So sad these drugs are killing so many..
Whoa, that's rough, sorry to hear that. I overdosed twice on the same day last year and finally had to stop a 20 year streak.. Was he hiding all drug use or did you guys do some drugs together, just not heroin/fentanyl?
By the way, I am going to a funeral this afternoon. Not anyone close to me - but a friend of a friend. This will be the fourth overdose funeral I have attended in a short time. Maybe more. Families do not always need to reveal the real reason their loved one passed away "suddenly".
I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope you weren’t the one who found him. That’s a terrible burden to bear.
I wonder how many people inevitably died through their addiction after getting such an easy start through doc Hollywood? And all he got was 3 years of probation??? Ha! That is mind blowing.
Mind blowing and also disgusting and disturbing.
But not surprising.

Wonder who alot of his Clients so called patients were ...in higher money and social status brackets who's names are " protected"
@@samthunders3611 you nailed it. 🎯 like a lot of names that get protected right?
He had no prior addictions and gave people what they were seeking. His clients were all rich, I doubt they had their lives ruined. Death from adderall is almost unheard of. It’s not like the doctors in the Midwest that were giving non drug users powerful lethal opiates. Why should we pay $50k a year to keep him in prison when he’s not a threat to anyone after he lost his license

Almost 1 year sober since last relapse from fent .
Anyone fighting keep fighting it gets easier
How did you quit what was the recipe
Dethy doesn't have the looks to overcome the deterioration you get from drug abuse, I imagine she's going to look very rough within 5 years of this program and the door to Fame and Fortune will be closed at that point because heavy substance abuse will age you × 10
Sounds like she just uses that excuse to justify her drug use. Who becomes famous through networking on parties, really?
JH: She is extremely average and seems boring, just another entitled rich kid from the burbs.
Dethy doesn't have the looks to be famous in Hollywood even if she was as clean as the pure driven snow. I'm betting the girls like her do a lot of favours for men to support their habits.

I'd like to congratulate drugs on winning the war on drugs. Seems like drugs wasn't even trying that hard.
Drugs probably used PED's to win
😂
22:50 The doctor sings.. "Let it be.. a shining star"... *Arms raise*.. Hahahahaha!!
yo right on bro for putting up an actual full episode. much appreciated ,much love keep it up
National Geographic puts a lot of full episodes and documentaries on their youtube. Some arguably better than what I pay for on Netflix imo
The dude in the hillside tent is happy. Amazing what clarity you get when stripping things down to bare essence. I'm considering joining the minimalisme movement.
The Hollywood Hills are powerful. Haunted, nurturing. I lived in Runyon Canyon Park for several months in 1993. Sitting on a hilltop watching the full moon rise over the L.A. Basin with Hollywood in the foreground and downtown L.A. in the distance.
@@myoldvhstapes we are so oldddddd. I lived out there also in 92 -96 on hw Blvd. Behind Chinese theater. In valley. North Hollywood across from universal and old Pasadena, talk about hauting. I stayed with a family in their haunted old Pasadena mansion. The parade passed us every new year morning. Back then it was funny cuz we would have the local hw glam bands over for huge party and most of us stayed awake with PEPSI and when the parade came by they would see what could only look like a crime scene lol . Those were the days so I am told lol can't remember a lot.
Smoke crack, you can get there much more quickly!
My cousin overdosed in California on drugs saddest thing he got swept into addiction
I’m so sorry for your loss 💔 addiction robs us of beautiful people who get caught up and trapped in that cycle of suffering.
The most perfect LA hipster quote of the universe: "Partying is soooooooo hard." I couldn't get past 3:05. I left there after 20 years to escape people like this.
Haha it is though, like on the body, and if you're doing that routinely every week. If that's what she meant I get that. She looked hella tired. She should jus chill at the beach, and drink smoothies, and swim in the ocean. I'm born and raised there, literally in Hollywood California. Are you saying you left LA 20 years ago?
Yeah...it’s hard for her cuz she’s probably meeting up with dudes she doesn’t like just so she can get high so she can be able to handle hanging with the dudes she doesn’t like just so she can get high so she can hang with dude she doesn’t like just so she can get high some more so she can handle hanging out with dudes she doesn’t like...see where this is going.
I couldn’t stand her at the beginning but I kept watching anyway, interesting documentary.
@@agostocobain2729 her problems are probably much deeper than a lack of going to the beach and drink smoothies…not sure if you’re being serious are trying to be funny using a tired LA stereotype….
36:45 "I can focus a lot better on meth"
Yeah, at taking apart a radio. 😂
...but can't focus on getting a job 🤣
Then putting it back together to take it apart again and on and on.
And after 3 days and innumerable how to videos, you can't put it back together and have to toss it, buy a new one, and repeat the process 3 days later.
Correction: adderall is not an anti-depressant. Its a stimulant.
RIGHT!!!
It’s also an anti depressant. Works better than all the anti depressants on the market today. Serotonin has zero to do with depression as is now out in the open.
Can u explain the difference thank you
I assume shows like this have people who look through the script yet no one seemed to catch that very obvious mistake. Adderall has always been an ADD drug nothing else.
@@christianmathison1182 It did make me some happy when I was on it. But the long term affects i don't enjoy.
So evidently the word "Party" doesn't just mean " to have a good time", but now specifically means to get high...
Hence the way she said "I can party several times a day".
"Party" is just a nice way of saying "doing drugs" because nobody wants that reality killing their buzz.
She must be fairly new to the game. Most junkies just say "get high", and are not concerned with that reality killing their buzz..They are already firmly rooted in that reality and accept it for what it is.
i literally have every season thats available on youtube you guys need to make a new seasons especially since the drug trade has changed so much now.
💯
The people and the clothes might change with the scene is always the same

they should do one about china and the synthetic drug trade, not just hallucinogenic drugs but anxiety medication, blood pressure medication etc.. they produce most of the U.S drugs we have here, including vaccines.
I’d love to see a show about flacca or tranq
I hate seeing our veterans on the streets like that.🇺🇸
we really dont know if he's actually a vet though, he just says he is
@@bridgettepierce7144 Bingo. There are MANY phonys that claim Vet status to elicit sympathy to up their panhandling game.
A year sober from drink and about three and a half years sober from methadone I'm actually living now I'm happy me 💯🏴
Nice.. u kicked the methadone too? I kicked fent and heroin cold turkey finally. No mat drugs. 100% free is the only way to be for myself. Not having to be dependent on something is the best feeling. Be very proud of urself.
Oh don't let John fool you he used to deal drugs in his earlier young days even had a apartment but to avoid problems with cops he went to living on the street's and chooses to stay living on the street's. I used to not only live stay with him but also of course do drugs with him and he shared his life story with me..
He had a brick on the couch. “For what?!” 😂
all while the little bags were shoved in some drawer trying to be hidden lolol

The "war on drugs" was against ourselves. As very sad as this was to watch, would be interesting to have an update on the three main characters, how they are now.
I'm a former undercover narcotics detective. I worked for a federal multi jurisdictional task force. The " war on drugs " was/is one of the biggest failures of this country. I dont have all the answers, but what I do know is we can't arrest our way out of addiction.
Trillions in taxes spent to make taxpayer lives worse. It's almost funny how bad we're all getting screwed.
That first line 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@@DB-yk2pt Thank you for your honesty. Mad Respect❤️
Down to 7 mg of suboxone from 32. Had a recent crack relapse but am back on the wagon. Haven’t touched fentanyl in 6 plus months. California/skid row was worse than Chicago (where I moved from to escape opiates)
Heck yeah brother! Keep going! That’s awesome news.
So thankful I am clean 4 years off of Methamphetamine!
Yaay you!
Well done
Amazing, here's to another 4 years!
27:22 "discreet arrest" 🤣🤣
best part of dispensaries is not having to go over to a guy like yogi’s house. the selection and quality is almost secondary.
Lmao ain’t that the truth.
John's dog is so cute, bless them both
Ok, I stopped at 2:53. "Camps out in her Parents pool house." Anyone else see the problem, here ?
I'm a Canuck, hard to watch, being a rehabilitated addict. Good doc.
Wish they would quit throwing cannabis in on the "street drugs" and calling or labeling them drug addicts.
Indeed! Cigs and alcohol are legal and much more harmful then pot.
but if you abuse it, you are a drug addict. My friends dad only smokes, after years of smoking he is a paranoid mess. It isn't as innocent as it is marketed to be. It alters you , like any other drug would.
@@casey98 What's considered "abusing" it? Who decides what is that line? how many times a day? A week? Only on the weekends? Who or how is that considered when saying that" people are abusing it? It is legal to walk into a dispensary to buy it in many states, California being one of them. I gave up a Ativan prescription that a Dr prescribed for me for cptsd and I got badly addicted to them for many years and quit drinking and switched to cannabis 8 years ago and have never looked back. My point being is cannabis isn't for everyone but it's much more likely not to cause extreme crazy behavior. Alcohol is way worse in that regard. The police need to worry about the much harder drugs than cannabis like fentanyl!
@@rattlesnake3113 abusing it is when u use it but dont need it
@@casey98 ya for some select people it's an issue pot but let's be practical here. When we compare pot and it's cons, it which i mean pot, compared to all the other illegal and legal drugs of abuse we have much bigger fishes to fry.
It's like the DEA is trying to fight off the Ocean with a spoon
Dethy sounds so dead and drained at the age of 22…💀💀💀
I bet they didn't know by stamping meds out that they allow Fetty in the front door
Nah they knew.. its all been planned.
I bet they did
The children caught up in this then feel compelled to do this into adulthood break my heart.
Yes, a terribly sad cycle.
It's pretty nuts that the drug trade has created a multi billion dollar industry just based on talking to people. What's nuts that a legal businesses can struggle even making sales online. Insane.
*Multitrillion!
Only certain people are really reaping the profit , Yeah it sounds good but the streets always sound good at first... Your better off legal
This doc wakes me up big time and im gone be a different person from now 👌
doing ok now ?
I'd like to see a follow-up about the people featured within this documentary. Whether any are still alive or doing any better
Actually the veteran in the beginning cleaned up his act and is now selling real-estate
I hope that WASTE of space women who sponges off here mom and dad got kicked out to fend for herself.. lets see how LIVING IN THE MOMENT does for her when she has to pay RENT and FOOD bills.. what an absolute waste of a human soul...
That would be really cool. I watch a lot of documentaries and always wonder "what is their life and situation like now?'
You say that in jest right? This doc has to be 10 years old.
@@r.c.l2569 Yes, thats generally how an update works.. if the doc was made last year, the chances are there would be little change in their lives.. Am i missing something here?
Dealers live off the misery of others they make me sick.....

im so sick of drugs .... in a perfect world i wish they never existed 💔
medicines are also drugs.
im dying at 41:45 "Elmers glue was invented in 1947" i mean seriously, those frequent fun-facts were unesccsary and annoying
"M&Ms were invented for the US military in 1941"

Heroin was put in medicine and other stuff in 1910 and was outlawed by the Feds later on.
Living in her parents pool house? I'll bet she never had to commit a crime to get high...
33:56 AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED THAT SCALE IS NOT WORKING LMAOOOO
Dephy looks 42. Live for today is a good motto if you live in your parents pool house.
140$ he made sitting on the curb.
that doctor is sad and pathetic.
The girl who lives in her parent's pool house is just a spoiled upper middle class over grown child. Some will argue she'd still do it if they turned her to the street, and they are probably correct. However, it was her parent's responsibility to look after her when she was a child.
It got me when he said “I can focus a lot better on meth… ahh…ummmm“. He couldn’t focus while talking about how he could focus.
he's delusional....
So she’s trying to get noticed for what? Partying?
"Riiiiiiight?!" 🥴
-Doc Hollywood
Never understood people who have dreams or goals with zero backup plans.
I have two drug dealers and one user that lives next to me. The sad thing is the law does nothing to help these people.
If you ever want to make them happy, bring them some treats like chocolate, potato chips and sodas. Junkies always neglect eating, and it might have been a long time since someone treated them nice.

So true, socializing with people sober is really not that fun.
That's because you dont have freinds lol
@@RoboArc Projecting
@Jessica Brock I'm fr though, freinds and having authentic life experiences is better than nit being sober. Granted you don't have ti be sober all the time, im just saying don't live with addictions and set yourself free from your own mind G 😋
I've just been around the block, and I'm speaking from as a guy that really couldn't find enjoyment in anything. The drugs, the money, the stress.
Nothing made me feel anything like taking a brake and touching grass.
@@RoboArc You should try touching the grass more often judging from how long your response to my single word was.
I'm happy to learn when Elmers Glue was invented ! What was the point of including that information in a doc about drugs. .
