Been sober 74 days. I have achived more with these days than last 6 years.
Yea. WE live 100% out of drugs. We use our whole potential.
@Scott Swift Jesus bless you!
Best luck brother, please don’t give up. It’s going to be a long hard fight but it is going to be so worth it. I hope you’re still doing well today
What have you accomplished with sobriety that you weren't able to before?
108 days without a drink for me
Who needs enemies when you have a sister like that.....and parents..... geeeez.
@Mary Oden so that makes it ok? Any addict that has ever felt being sick would never ever show how to use or get it for someone who has never done it. (Unless the person is rich and they are trying to get them to spend all their money with them) other than that I promise you that anyone that's been really sick and knows how that is would never knowingly allow anyone to be in those shoes and that's real. The amount of empathy for others and remorse for themselves and what they've done that they wish they never have honestly would not allow them to give a sober person opiates. Have a good day and if you have anything else to add or if you feel differently please write something back.
@@calvinengle2020 His sister may have not actually experienced withdrawal before she shared with him. She was most likely just wanting to let her brother in on what she thought was the best thing she's ever found. Even if she had been sick before though, that doesn't really mean anything. She was at the beginning of her addiction and obviously didn't see it as something that would be as much of a problem as it was going to be for them both.
@@skillzorz101 I have herd of celebrities' like John Phillips of the rock group Mama's and the Papa's giving his kids smack even showing them how to shoot up, also read a book that was written by Christopher Lawford the Son of Peter Lawford and JFK's sister Pat Kennedy and he talked about in the book that his dad for his 16th birthday gave him a eight ball of cocaine.
Alotta siblings introduce drugs..cuz u wanna b cool ..accepted when u a little sibling ...n older 1s dont wanna b snitched on
His sister was a child as well, can’t blame her too much coming from a broken home
Been through this first hand, i was addicted to pain killers. It was hard trying to get clean after 6 yrs of getting high on pills and after thousands and thousands of dollars later, IM FINALLY SOBER. 1YR and 3MNTHS CLEAN. IM SOO PROUD OF MYSELF
I feel ya. I had 12 year addiction to pills. 3 years clean cold turkey. Proud of YOU.
@@cliffkonkle3467 Cold turkey? Jeez man, I think maybe you should have weaned off slowly lol. I know from firsthand experience that those withdrawals from opioids are literal hell on earth. I even started to seriously contemplate suicide at a few points. Its no fucking joke those WD symptoms.
How sad his sister introduced him to this.
Mimi Mimis yea shes a fucking pos
Sams cool but He LOVES HIS SISTER!
Mimi Mimis his sister problt was Tryna get him out of his missery
Mimi Mimis lol, white/black people for u
It happens my mother introduced me to drugs.
I had a godly experience as well. Looking at myself in the mirror... a mess. My hair was ratty.. tangled. Bags under my eyes.. scabs on my face.. skinny as a rail... ugly.. sick.. afraid.. high.. denial.. sadness.. alone.. lonely.
And then all of a sudden I said out-loud to myself in the mirror “this isn’t who you are.” For days id been praying.. begging my higher power for help. I’ll never forget that day in the mirror. That day in the mirror I saw myself with clear eyes for the first time in a while. What I said to myself was the universe speaking through me. It was that day I called a rehab. I’ve been clean ever since.
Jesus is the source....
Jesus bless you.
Jesus is King💓💓💓🕂
Best wishes Marissa, keep up the good work.
Honestly, just reading and hearing that makes me want to believe in a higher power too. I’ll try anything to get my loved one clean. It seems like a last resort, but I have a newfound faith in it...
What a beautiful experience. Proud of you sister!
Marissa Orton omfg i love you sm thats amazing that gave me chills

Tammy Conte are you doing ok Tammy?

Loneliness cannot be overcomed by any form of addiction. It is always good to do what makes you happy while you are lonely. Thanks detox to rehab for sharing this story
Damn, I wouldn't mind chilling with him to stop his loneliness tbh, seems like a chill dude
Don't! Addicts are extremely dangerous. Read the crime statistics.
khosrow hmmmm yeah so true
seems like a bell end thats full of shit to me, u can imagine him talking about himself constantly
lol thats hilarious! i bet youre the kind of person who believes everything they read! pretty much the average uk voter lol
JEϟϟE LINK What does color have to do with anything, smh😝
He’s only 20? Holy shit he’s very mature for his age, but he has been through a hell of a lot. Much respect for this guy.
toxicity, too young
He looks 30’s
Having a lot of troubles, bad things happening in your life, and also responsibilities makes you age faster. Ever wonder why highschool kids 80 years ago looked like 25 year olds compared to highschool kids now that look like theyre still in middle school?
A 17 year old back then had more responsibilities, which makes you look older. Your life decisions literally change the way you look. You wear your everyday choices on your face.
Should start doing drugs too, cuz i want to be mature
Respect? Lol
Sitting here dope sick watching this just looking for some hope
Keep going, you got this. It will only get easier. It's easier said than done, but you can do it.
It gets better....you are worth a beautiful life. Please don't give up
Thanks guys
@@seandonaldson3465 ❤
Hope you’re staying strong.
I hope Sam lives a good life and doesn't ever do drugs again.
he died in last month, overdosed
Big Simon seriously? Damn
No way? Did he really relapse and OD?
@Big Simon saying that without giving a source is useless info as there are many trolls online.
Big Simon you fucking moron
3 years clean and i still miss the oxy 80s. i loved the high. ill always be in recovery for the rest of my life.
Stay strong, and don't give up the fight.
Pincen Abigail You're separating the drug from the consequences
RT no i know full well what will happen if i do it again. People i uses to know are dying. Oding or suicide.
oxys are gone
valkor73 no they are not, they are just rare as fuck and you normally gotta get em from another country
been sober for 30 days. went into treatment and it was the best thing that happened to me. being sober is the best thing you can have
Good luck brother dont give up
Enabled by family and getting high with Dad - addiction is such genetic disease, its undeniable. Kids of addicts are lost when they take that first hit or sip. Prevention is key for them.
If it is genetic, maybe addicts should not have kids.
DC Hyden only white people smoke crack w their kids, sad truth
chris _86 white dads smoke with the kids, blacks dad dont cuz they are not present, Latino dads are over the border so they can't
yayoy619 rather have him over the border or not present than to be smoking crack w him 😂😂
DC Hyden yes
Too many addiction can lead to bad ending, but once you are sober you can change the bad ending to a good one. Congratulations to him for his recovery
What type of father introduces their 13-14 year old son to HEROIN. Smfh.
was the sister moite
Happens all the time bro
CrAzY FiSh his family is different from yours don’t judge
@@dennisferguson1868 No it's was his dad, her sister introduced him to other drugs tho, but his dad introduced him to heroin
@@AngelLopez-nq2yx oxy opened the door...a good 80mg oxy is equal to a couple dubs of regular grade heroin. Its cheaper and stronger than oxy and pills...this disease is awful, i fought it too but i was lucky that i had resources & people that loved me enough to help. I had insurance, my parents are still married and dont even drink wine or smoke cigs...i have no addicts in my family and i still wound up going down that road when i simply fell in with a bad crowd at one of my jobs back in 2013 wanting to try something new and ive been struggling until a couple years ago i gave my life to god and started being real with myself & those around me. please guys educate everyone you know that opiates are hell. doesnt matter if its vicodin (which is where i and many others started) or codeine...you will feel great and chase that first high with stronger stuff all the way up the hill until your on dope.
When I read the video title, I was going to write 'how can somebody that's clean at 18 years old teach me anything? that's not a real addiction' but I was wrong. You totally nailed it man and you did it far more articulately than I could have. Nice one dude and keep up the good work! 🙏🏻
You are young enough to cop some new pals. Get clean first Plank.
Goes to show you how ignorant you are a face value huh
@@philjames6206 I genuinely can’t tell if you were being an ass to this person or not lol
Sad because he's a very young handsome guy. Could have modeled, boxer, musician, or something but I understand. We don't choose to be in pain
I know the feeling
My thoughts exactly
SkinCareLuver he still can be … it’s not ever too late
How do u know he could’ve been a boxer 😂
so if he was ugly it would not have been sad? american superficiality at its finest. 🤢
I'm fighting loneliness and I'm not even doing heroin lol
Same
can feel you, same here
I remember watching this video years before I got sober and wanting what this guy has in sobriety. I'm almost at 2 years now (god willing) and this video still gives me comfort.
I'm so happy for you Scott! Your comment gives me comfort,!
stay strong man,
thank you for sharing!
this is my first time watching this video..
I'm amazed about his insights... he "saw" very early how dangerous any substance could be for him
it's so huge to have this awareness so young..
and at any time he victimizes himself or juges/ blames his family..
so beautiful when he assumes still not knowing what's wrong with him " something spiritually inside"
and despites that, he's saving so many lives
hope everything is OK!! ❤
You are what I had wished for my brother he died March 23 2013 from H . I miss him sooooo much ! Keep up the fight young man !
Iam so sorry...my deepest condolences!
May God comfort you!
Thank you Sam...don't ever stop discovering who you are, I felt like there was always something wrong with me and I learned that it was a lack of validation, apparently a lack of a few key elements that human beings need. I learned in the end there was nothing wrong with me, I learned to validate myself. Some of my childhood needs weren't met and that carried over to my adulthood and at 34 I learned why I had this void, this emptiness, it changed my life. Now that I know I work on it everyday. Heal your inner child. Please look up "inner child work" and/or "re-parenting work" it's so amazing. ~Stay Strong and Be blessed
Congratulations on finding who you were and learning how to deal with your issues. t's not easy. And thank you for the recommendations!(:
CHiiQ Hi!! Happy to know that you found the patch to yr emptiness. Keep up the good work &Never look bck. Keep moving Fwrd. Once Day at a Time.
If you don't mind can I ask you how we're u able to fill that patch of loneliness?? The childhood trauma which weren't there & all. . . I would Highly Appreciate if u could Help me out here abit. Cuz I'm going through the same & trying to straighten my life out but just not able to. Things are just getting worse & worse, Day by Day.
Sorry I can't tell/explain in detail cuz of the privacy issues here. Cuz all this is being displayed to everyone here all over the world.
Hope u understand.
Tx You in Advc!!
congrats mama. I am happy and proud for you
Entertainment Fun she did the "inner child work" You should google "inner child work" and read up on it and give it a try! It really does work! Find a psychologist/counselor and you can do all of that work with your psychologist. Make an appointment to see the psychologist/counselor once a week. It will help you!!! Whatever kind of insurance you have, there are many psychologists/counselors that will except your insurance, and the insurance will cover the cost. So all you need to do is show up to every single appointment and be truthful with your counselor and do the inner child work. And with time you will start to feel better! I promise you that!
Entertainment Fun also you may not like the first counselor you meet with, you may need to see a few different counselor/psychologist before you find one that you are very comfortable with, a psychologist that's easy for you to talk to and you enjoy talking to! You may get lucky and like the first one you meet with! But just in case you don't, don't give up, don't let that stop you from getting the help you need! It's very common for patients to have to meet with a few different psychologist/counselor's before they find the one they like, that's completely normal!
I wish you the best!
I'm so glad he's on the right path now. I'm clean 5 years now, but everyday I have to make the choice not to find a way to get high. Recovery is work, but always worth the effort. I'm alive and grateful!
Thank god he is sober now. This man is one of the most gorgeous men I’ve ever seen. He’s been through so much shit. Respect.
This video took away all cravings I had, thank god
Don't come back. I'm here now I'm fucked
Same profile pic
Got sober at a young age..good for you honey
He seems like a good dude. We all make mistakes. I sure hope he makes his way to a wonderful life. He reminds me of many of my friends. We all deserve a second chance.
@you wa you wa I believe that making bad decisions doesn’t make you a bad person. He has clearly taken a heavy ass beating for his mistakes.
@you wa you wa I’m definitely not saying that. All I can go by is what he says. I don’t know the man. He might be lying, but I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt, until they prove I should do otherwise. What I’m trying to say is that people can change, but the world has to give them a chance.
Thanks for sharing your story bud. IT's much harder to quit when your family does it.
had multiple addictions hero, mdma, meth and frequent psychedelics but now i am clean for over 90 days feels great and proud of myself 🧙
🎉❤
I’m so sorry for all these ppl. I was homeless in Harrisburg with my fiancé and dog. He died last July of a heroin overdose. I was working at the time and finding him was so traumatic. I quit heroin after that. I had some good friends that took me in off the streets in another state. So I’ve been blessed with a new life and I can remember those times and it literally makes me sick. This country is all for the rich. The government doesn’t help and I’m a taxpayer and pay for them to live. God will deal with them one day. I just hope these ppl can find the same help I did with good ppl. I won’t ever complain again.
You blame all YOUR bad decisions on the rich and the government? Look in the mirror if you want to blame someone for your bad decisions.
I am Allison I'm an addict as well. Been struggling pretty bad love the video very deep and emotional and real
PLEASE, KEEP FIGHTING. You can defeat the disease. ♡♡♡
Yes please keep fighting. You Can Do it!!!!
Keep moving forward, Allison, you're already doing amazing!
Alli Ishak heyyy
Alli Ishak Rooting and praying for you Allison 💜
this is seriously an epidemic it needs more attention I recently just started a vlog of my own to tell my own story about being an addict in recovery it really takes guts and courage to put your story out there I'm definitely proud of anybody who's willing to work on their self regardless of their past
2 days sober but it's a start
Great job! Keep going!!
Natural Selection so proud of you! Just keep going I remember almost 2 years ago my first 2 days it does get better stick with it I care about you even though I don’t know you you’re a beautiful human being who deserves to have a beautiful life!
4 days for me
Just ran out of vicodin :/
Now 52!
One of the worst things about drug addiction is that it takes you a part of your family and the people who love you. It brokes your soul and theirs.
I absolutely respect what he said. He is a very strong minded person who found his willpower. it’s always good to hear something good come out of something so bad. That was a very motivating story
Damn I remember driving Sam to a couple meetings from cvh. I'm 11 months n 9 days sober today ;)
Jesus bless you and give you victory!🕇
stfu
👏👏👏💋
The LastDutchhman you still sober bro ?
@@redred3408 u shut up biaaatchhh
I started H forty years ago. Been off for five years now. That's forty years I'll never get back.
Jeff Stewart I wasted close to 30 years but now at the age of 60 I’ve been clean for 2 and I’m living again
Well done though Jeff! How have you managed to stay off?
Think about it like that was your life's primary obstacle. You overcame.
Congratulations to you!..It's never too late to start a new life!
May I ask you why you did H For so many decades...what kept you going and not give it up?..were you chasing the highs...or you like the highs?..IAM trying to gain insight into it.. thanks
You’re a legend for doing it that long and not dying lol
You’re a hero to me. Please keep going strong and healthy 😉👍🏼👏🏻
Day 4 of cold Turkey fentanyl withdrawals today, I see light at the end of the tunnel. Keep fighting
Oof I know firsthand how fucking difficult that is. I hope you got through it man.
Sam really took the best step ever. It's amazing to have addiction stories behind you and not allow them stay with you because of them harm associated with it. Congratulations Sam
This really breaks my heart. I can closely relate to this guys story.
I’ve been clean for 2 years now and it’s a daily fight that will surely last the rest of my life. Check on your people.
Yo this literally got me clean like I’ve been in a lot of need of help this like was a massive help to my life I’m so thankful for this video, and I hope everyone will change after watching this video🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amen, Jesus is calling you...
I had 230 days clean in 2018 relapsed in July 1st died.. Took 8mg of narcan and 2 defibulator shocks to save my life. Woke and couldn't move my body for a week in ICU. Went to rehab currently to date12 19 2018 now in sundrum manor Niagara Falls ny. Almost 6 months clean
I am now today 2/10/2019 7 months clean and sober. Feel great miracles are being blessed in my life. IT CAN WORK IT DOES WORK. IF U WANT TO BE CLEAN YOU WILL BE CLEAN. .PERIOD.
@@josephguilfoyle9477 God bless you. I don't know what it's like to be addicted to heroin, but I was prescribed Methadone 10s 3xs a day for almost 4 years and dangerously quit cold turkey. I went through horrible withdrawals for months... NO Joke. I've been clean for 13 years.
It's always nice to hear from someone else that they broke free from the chain of addiction. Stay strong
Joseph Guilfoyle I wish I could shake fentanyl
Joseph Guilfoyle That’s amazing!! Us recovering addicts can really find blessings in the worst thing imaginable. We are grateful for everything and once we start really healing and overcome what we thought couldn’t be done, real happiness starts to happen. It takes time for happiness sometimes so anyone feeling like giving up please don’t until the miracle happens!! It’s your brain healing and retraining your thoughts and it will happen for you too I promise!!
👏👏👏
Everything u said was true,23 years a drug addict,now 17 months clean,I lost my children and my mind...i chose to change when i couldn't lose nothing else other than my life,i done treatment and found NA,got a sponsor a home group and I'm on step 6,i have found my new freedom..my life is getting better daily it's still a struggle sometimes,my spiritual awaking was looking in the mirror and smiling,and now I cant stop,I get my sence of purpose when I'm helping others,and I find my peace with my higher power,and I keep coming back for more,,ur right it's simple were just complicated people..thx for your share and good luck for the future🙏
Love his dialogue, cuts to the point and well spoken; no superfluous words such as .... like, you know, uhh; just easy to listen to, captures and keeps listeners attention. Very in touch with himself and no bs!! Accolades for this young man ❤
Its a double edge sword. The more u use... the more shame and the more u want to use. Its hard to know when to fold them. Know when to walk away.
6:58 "The look of pain and distrust in her eyes was enough........ for me to go and get high again" LMAO,
trifecta t 😂😂😂😂 right. like dude, really?
trifecta t that's how an addiction works. If you have an addiction you can't even fathom any other way of joy besides getting high.
an opiate addiction isn't even to get happy so much as to numb the pain. He was hurting as badly as her and getting high was the only way he knew to deal with that.
slaughteryadaughter yup.. he’s full of shit
finally, ive found another person who knows he's full of shit! lol
damn i started getting high after going to jail started selling fell in love put girl through hell had a kid lost my girl and kid tried to commit suicide found god trying to start life over at 28 years old
Huh Ggy sick man good on you g
God damn!
God bless you
Huh Ggy “found god” yeah sure you did, more like you made a bullshit reason to get clean.
Mine succeeded.
Sam's story of heroin addiction is indeed touching. However, taking a bold step to tackle the addiction is exceptionally commendable. Detox deserves a round of applause for treating drug addicts. Bravo!
Well said.
Been clean and sober since 7/1/2010; on this go round. Been in recovery since January 88. Then I was homeless, due to Crack, lsd, wees, alcohol and more. My recovery videos on my channel. A Day at a time. Can relate to parts of his story. Yes,this is one of the Hardest things I have ever done. Great video. Keep up the good work. 👍
so cool Randy!! thank you for sharing!!!🥰🤩😊
@@gisellefranck2431 First started the program, way back in Jan 88. Was homeless from Crack Cocaine, lsd, weed, alcohol and more. Has taken 3 times in a drug rehab. Went back out in 2010. Learned from it. My recovery videos are on my channel. Look under Recovery Playlist
I’ve been sober for 76 days now, currently working through the 12 steps w my sponsor, and I never thought I’d be able to wake up in the morning genuinely HAPPY. knowing I don’t need a hit of heroin or dope to get through the day and feel a glimpse of “acceptance”. I am a drug addict and drugs no longer interest me... I think about how fucking miserable and powerless I was when I was using and I think about the way I was living and it encourages me to stay sober. I would not be at this point without help from my family (who I have burnt nearly every bridge w at the time), I will be forever greatful that they still had hope in me and sent me to rehab... I am 22. There is hope. There’s something out there greater than you and I and it is not drugs or alcohol
So awesome!! Thank you for sharing with us!!
same problem now I regret taking heroin for 5 yrs the only thing I left is to change my circle friend
This made me cry, because I’m personally going through getting ready for rehab and you’re so brave for sharing your story ,thdank you this helped allot🙏🏻
I’m in recovery and have been clean for 7 years. You are very mature. Continue on the path you’re on and you will go far in life
Even if there is always something wrong, drug isn't gonna make u better. You just destroying you body. So happy to have come in contact with this piece
been sober for a month, i needed to see this honestly
I always watch same heroin videos everytym on youtube when i am on withdrawals....after i dnt both...i remember most of it by heart....any one else?
Yep
Yeah I do the same thing
Yeah..
Keep going strong Sam! You got this! & to everyone going through drug abuse, I hope you find it in you to stop harming yourself & others around you 💗
You are a Legend Sam, I really needed to hear your story today. Thank you for sharing.
Been sober for 8 years from heroin. Its not easy but it does get easier and props to Sam for getting clean. His whole family was getting high which is harder but he still made it.
IV been clean from ice and all other drugs completely for 3 years and going strong! I love how this young guy does not sugar coat or make excuses for his addiction. He owns his behaviour and knows how it's affected his family as well as himself and truly see how bad it was. I hate when addicts make excuses and blame everyone and everything except themselves. It makes my blood boil. But good on this kid for stepping up and being a man about it. I got mad respect for him 👍
Awesome video man..glad you're sober. People need to remember alcohol is just as bad..it's legal is all. Keep up the awesome work! I struggled with alcohol.
Jeffrey Twoey I totally agree. I struggled with alcohol as well. I’m now sober and plan to never drink again. 🙏
Im sorry what you went through. I understand everything you went through. Im proud that you are sober and living better
Mollie cowden , thanks
such an emotional story. So proud that you win the fight against drugs
All these experiences resonate with mine from early on. Around age 9 I got drunk for the first time, and that was the beginning of 3-decades of binge-drinking, along with basically doing whatever substance I could get my hands on. Finally, a few years ago I managed to get sober (and have managed to Stay sober). Along the way I found that "traditional" recovery programs, 12- step, etc. did not help me get sober, so I found a way that worked for me, which is basically, paying attention to your 'higher-self', who 's best interests are your own, and who is always conveying information to us, the trick is to learn how to listen. Much love to all who are or have gone through addictions, and all that comes along with that. Blessed -
A supportive family makes a huge difference
Love & Respect from 1 addict to another...worldwide
Damn he is only in his 20's and his story could be a movie... Im glad he found recovery and is happy! ❤ all these stories break my heart but im really happy that there are beautiful people working to help the ones who need it! Gives me hope for humanity dude

@@keithmaj857 I am praying right now to Jesus for you.
I know that feeling of emptiness like a void or something missing from you to make you feel complete. You are not alone. I also have major depression for life. There is great hope for you so never give up because life changes and things happen in life that you never even expected. You have massive courage. Be proud of what you have achieved:)
Im 15 days sober, and those clips with the birds, grass and sun just makes me smile. It is exactly how sobriety feels like. You feel free. You come close to nature again. You are not a slave anymore.
Hey DuJuhan! We are glad to read you! Congratulations! the most challenge step is start and you are in now! keep going! We are here if you need anything !
@@Detoxtorehabcenter Thank you :) Your videos are a gift to us! It gives me strenght to never touch that stuff again. You are interviewing people
who have suffered much worse blows of fate than me, so if they did it, so can I :). I'm blessed with a good family, good sober friends. The one thing which got kicked me into it was my ex girlfriend. Her leaving me killed my inside. So I took high doses of oxycontin. Someday I realised, if I can live and survive without my ex gf, then I also can live without those drugs... because I loved her much more than those pills. There is a flame inside me burning brighter and brighter till the day passes. I will kick into the gym, eat clean again. I want to shape my body instead of destroying it!
"I'm not going to do this" "I'm going to do this half, your going to do this half" "ok cool"
Beautiful!!! Another Brave Angel on this Planet leading The Way!
Wow this was amazing. You’re very eloquent. Powerful
I could not have Said it better my self. Thanks for the help
We are glad to know that our true stories of addiction can help you! 🤍that’s our mission, thanks to you ✨
I see so many testimonys and you are so young. I was in my 20s when i first entered rehab. I had the most amazing experiences there. I messed up more times im now going through a really tough time but i need prayers from you young people. God bless ❤❤❤
Best wishes... you can do this, I send my love and prayers.
Stay focused. You matter! Messing up is okay, if you get back on track. Guilt doesn’t help. Love yourself you are worthy.
Replace the drug with gym and Faith in a higher power. Once u feel your mind going towards drugs, change your surroundings immediately
You are amazing . I am proud of you.
I’m so thankful that my girlfriend my future wife safe my life I’ve been clean for 5years now
Donald Dowdy Congratulations 🎉! Stay Focused.
Sam went to a wrong track very early in his life. Good that he found recovery after realising the facts.
This guy is so well spoken, so honest and so courageous! God bless him!
this gives me hope
Lonliness is a deadly disease. Its probably worse than cancer. I'm 29 and I'm that way. I feel your pain.
I wish I lived near YOU. I would definitely be a friend. I feel the same as YOU friend I am 43
I'm suffering from loneliness. I want to die
U got it brother, keep up the good road!!! Hope all is well!!!
i watched this right through then sat and looked at my life. you are on the right path now lad , just keep going well done.
I'm almost 6 years clean from opiates. It's always refreshing to hear someone speak their truth and be fully honest. I found being honest and completely open with my journey, the traumas I'd endured and hidden for so long, and the addiction I'd managed to hide for 7 years, was the only way to truly heal and conquer my demons. If I'm honest, i still crave it almost every day! But it's about how I overcome that on a daily basis, and to not act on those urges. Every day sober is a good day!
I wish anyone struggling with addiction all the love and support in the world. Please remember there's a better life out there for you, and it's never too late to find your happiness ♥
Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooly sheet you look well for what you've been through
Kurt Freaking Cobain hello Kurt

Victory over addiction is a function of readiness of the concerned person. Congratulations to you dearie.
I was addicted to the hokey pokey but then i turned myself around.
I am struggling. I am an addict.
Collin Meyer it's up to you as to how you get out, only you have the brain to make your own problems go away, positivity helps, , being the best person you can be , treating yourself good, not bad, loving yourself first. Remember only you have the power to control your demons.
Bonnie Nagel that’s a pretty shitty thing to say. If your really deep down the rabbit hole, you need professional help.
Go all the way. You deserve healing.
+Nina Marie find out about God. I wish you didn't hurt, but as of now you gotta stay strong and depend on a force greater than you. Plan to heal. My heart goes out to anyone who is struggling with life. I'm practicing Islam and I have started to feel a greater force to depend on. Hope you take this serious and pray to God no matter how ugly your condition might be. There's always getting better. love and peace to you.
Jesus really saves man. He's such a cool dude! Saved me from anger and I know I have a belonging!
Get into a church! read the gospel! jesus = life :)
He’s fine as hell hope he’s staying sober
Chris Nunya right?! Yes gawd
Y’all are disgusting
Thanks for your words
Been sober for 21 days. Was a methadone addict, getting it from a doctor. Since it came from a doctor I justified it for a long time. My worst day sober is better than my best day high.
