I have scars on my thighs from shooting heroin and I’m grateful for them because it reminds me everyday how bad it could get. We can never forget where we have come from. Our past is not our enemy it’s an Allie and become s one of our greatest assets. When life is feeling like everything is just perfect is when we really have to remind ourselves of where we
      Came from. Zen vibes everyone way ✌️ ☮️

    This shit is deep man... you can definitely see the sadness in your face/emotion while explaining the story about Allison. I'm sorry you had to endure that. From one addict to another(being on methadone myself) your story resonates with me and many others like us. This is great awareness of what could happen to someone if they think they wanna go down this path. Appreciate the story.

    Listening to Ryan tell his life stories is hypnotic. It's as if my brother is talking to me. I lost my older brother to an overdose in 2002. Losing my brother was the most significant loss of my life up to that point. Then, I lost both of my parents. Watching my mom bury her son is a memory I wish I didn't have. My mom grieved her sons death until the day she died 2 years ago, April 20th. My deepest condolences to Ryan's parents, wife, and children. So unfair! 😢

    • @ryanleone5805
      @ryanleone5805  5 лет назад +20

      I’d have to agree with blasé... never my intention to glorify this lifestyle. There’s nothing cool about drug addiction. I’m past all that. But when I was in prison people used to tell me I had great stories, so in preparation for the documentary coming out next year, I thought it might be advantageous to start getting these stories out there. People seem to enjoy them - but I don’t think I have a pro-drug message....

Finally my ex left me and I went into rehab single and not worried about shit outside. Sober now. Women fuck shit up man and make it seem like we’re the ones trippin.

      John Smith kinda seems judgmental to be a drug addict who can't stop using drugs to the point of going to rehab then insult people who fall victim to the trap of women and codependency. Someone could say the same about you "pretty weak, only insecure weak people can't put drugs down". I'm a heroin addict too so I'm not talking down to you either

    Similar experience from one of the many times I have ama'd from treatment. Three of us walk out with only 25 dollars, no ride and no rig. Look down in the bushes of treatment center, brand new 10 pack rigs, simultaneously look up and see an old friend who gives us a ride to the connect. High within 10 minutes of ama'ing. My higher power was shining bright that day.

I did my time so I don't mind talking about it. I was part of a group where we shipped xannies throughout the US. I was around 50k xans/month. Back then there wasn't a dull moment in my life. Henry Hill said it best, "For us to live any other way was nuts. To us, goody good people who worked shitty jobs for bum pay checks and worried about bills were dead. They were suckers." Now I'm that sucker. I have kids whom I love and they saved my life which I'll always be grateful for but it always feels like there's something missing after all those years.

The drug stuff is typical, but that Mike dude was BAD news. I'm glad you made it out alive Ryan, and I'm glad you've found some stability with the subs. I'm a vet in Texas, about your age, and I'm on done', 3 yrs now. I wanna kick, but as you know, it's the holy Grail of kicks. I wanna come down, low and slow, then bounce on subs for a month or so, then be done with it all. It's true madness. Though I don't get off on the done, it still affects you, as you know. Very very hard, but definitely better than banging. Thank you for your time and for sharing man. Wish me luck.

It's still a little rough but definitely manageable. At one point I never thought I could go a week without anything....let alone 3 months. I did it & I'm sure u can too...jus don't fuck it all up like I did once u get that clean time. It's a lifelong fuckin vice & that craving will always be there but u can make it so the absolute need to use is gone. Good luck man.

Tried it once but didn't get shit, but now know it was bc I didn't wait long enough off the done, only 53hrs, and kratom isn't near strong enough to compete against done even after 53hrs, that's not nearly long enough. So, I know it will work, I just have to wait prob 10 days or so. Anyway, I'm on my way, jump off low dose in December, then the subs for a month, then kratom.

Ends up I had to take way more than what was considered a large dose. Idk if it was due to my tolerance or what but it always seemed like I could handle shit that should put an elephant down, so with the kratom I found myself taking 4 grams more that they told me was a large dose. Anyways just start low & work yourself up to whatever works for u. That stuff really is amazing for kicking the habbit tho. Never thought I could sleep the second day of detox & that shit put me to sleep. Really a miracle. Wish ya the best & good luck man.
