Fentanyl Addict interview-Kim 

You are a survivor ❤️

So thankful to hear your story.........and so happy you made the changes for yourself and your kids, sending you love from across the pond!

Sheri, What a sweet & noble comment to, Kim! And, what a courageous woman you are...God Bless 🙏 Love, I hope your words of wisdom resonate with Kim's mind, body & heart and she becomes an example to someone else one day as well.

If that’s not inspiring i don’t know what is. Wow ❤️

suboxone is a bitch for sure

I know some people who were not shitty parents and yet their adult children are so messed up it's pitiful. I agree that shitty parents almost always mess up their kids but sometimes good parents have kids that mess up despite having been "raised right." It's sad. 😕

@@icy-hearted-angel Gabor Mate (look him up) says that not every traumatized person is an additc but every addict is a traumatized person....you have no idea what is happening behind closed doors...

Many people have shitty parents and turn out just fine. The link I see in these videos is a genetic component. Justine was adopted and raised in a Christian pastors home but his biological father is an addict too. Bad parenting doesn't help either though.

@@christmastree6817 You are right about some but not all. It's mostly genetics anyway.

Many times tho, it can be a good kid with great parents getting sucked into a friendship or a relationship with someone is a BAD and into drugs. The excitement and peer pressure of trying these drugs for the first time is very enticing to a young kid who has lived a clean, straight and sometimes strict life. That's the sad part. These BAD friends they get involved with know perfectly well that they are are about to screw up the life of this "nice" person and get them addicted, but they do it anyway. Also, the whole "gateway drugs" thing is real. Like experiencing (and surviving) the thrill of more and more scary roller coasters, drugs can be similar in that the thrill of trying each one can lead to trying one that is just a little more dangerous and the highs a little higher. They don't have the perspective of hindsight as they are in the middle of it to see they are one a slowly destructive path that takes them down river, closer and closer to the waterfall drop off of no return.

It's fucked she od'd 6 times when she was pregnant..

Being young and addicted is the worse.You think you have forever and just want to have “fun”.If you make it out alive all you’re left with is regret and the knowing the “fun”wasn’t worth it.Hope she finds some clarity and self love before it’s too late 🤍

It's obvious u have an addiction to food so u know how hard it is to get clean and get on track. So instead of insulting her and assuming that u kno everything about her off of a 15 minute video, give her a chance to try. U don't kno what happened after this video.. none of us do, only Mark does. Hopefully he can do a follow up in a few months.

@@sashaprettyeyes2052 my weight is due to having lupus and RA. Between my meds and being unable to move some days, it’s a little difficult to be able to exercise or get any movement in on some days. Addiction to food isn’t my problem, sweetheart. It’s an actual medical disease.

I hope they don't get the kids

Kfl3ful -All well and good, kfl3ful. But don't get in between a smiling addict and whatever it is they say they need. You will get hurt.

As a RN who has worked with patients who have addiction this has helped me also good luck with your future as a nurse

Just remember in your position, a simple smile, eye contact and a sense of understanding could be the difference between ones success in getting clean. It could be the reason an addict chooses to continue their fight. Shame was such a huge emotion for me at that time.

Thank you for already being a human being who wants to help others. From what you're writing you have some very good qualities. This actually made me cry. The fact that you're going that extra inch just to understand and educate yourself tells me that you're genuinely interested in doing the best you can for the people you work with. To be a warm, emphatic person with a smile is often what it takes. Just be open and have a lot of patience. What we all need is to be seen. You know what I'm saying? Many of these people have never been seen before. Many of the young addicts are extremely loud and angry but don't buy into it. It's just a show. They're testing you. They've been hurt so many times so they try and push people away before they get hurt again. All they want is to be loved.

Learning curves bring experience… so while being wary and watchful when nursing lost souls going through detox or addiction, always remember that most people just want to be valued, listened to and loved. Go well and stay happy 😃

I'm wondering whether parenting used to be seen as more of a communal responsibility, as it still seems to be in many indigenous cultures. Today, it seems like parenting is thrust on many people who are either unwilling or unable to take on responsibility for another human being. We need better sex education, better access to contraceptives, and better health care systems, particularly for women.

TALK IS SO CHEAPKIDS ALWAYS WANT THEIR MOTHER ALL THE TIME AND THE OLDER THEY GET THE MORE THAT LOW SELF ESTEEM CREEPS UP FEELING UNWANTED FROM BOTH PARENTS SOME KIDS DEAL WITH IT BETTER THAN OTHERS BUT THEY ALL HAVE FEELINGS OF WHY DIDNT MY MOM & DAD WANT ME...SO SAD...i THINK SEEING THEM WHENEVER IT DOESNT INTERFERE WITH YOUR DRUG USE ONLY HURTS THE KIDS..NOT EASY FOR THEM AT ALL

Well to be fair those are the terms of their custody. Like if CPS gets involves and gives the child to the custody of other caregivers, its not accurate to say, "we can see the kids whenever we want [but they are not in our custody]" vs other types of custody where visitation is much more limited

@@itsmelive Yes. When CPS is involved, it is generally to protect the child from one or both parents. The welfare of the child is central, in a more complete sense than simply taking care of material needs. Children cannot raise children and people who fundamentally do not want children should not take on this responsibility. I remember an experiment where teens - both boys and girls - were given dolls to take care of for a week as though they were babies. Almost all struggled, not understanding the level of commitment this demands - and from people who typically are, at this stage of their lives, very self-centered and self-absorbed.

I normally have compassion when it comes to this Chanel But it gets kind of balls to me that is addicts same Fucking story! All cry they had this horrible shit show Upbringing nobody love them nobody one of them but they do the grandparents the hands of girls cousins one parent people taking care of their kids I’m not a fucked up life to and I did a little fucked up things too but when the test said you positive !!! pregnant!!! I didn’t marry a crackhead or heroin addict I married a fucking fireman and did the right thing and left everything else thing behind. My kid was number one still is… he’s 16 Has a house we have a huge Olympic size swimming pool two huskies two bedrooms what is the game room the downstairs hang out wrong on a 1 acre trampoline outside On the football team since it’s 4 Drives with a permit has a jeep almost has a job… goals Kind of a douche Can be nasty hormones . But that’s great because I made a decision to just grow the fuck up for him. I hear a lot of ppl that had much more then I And I never hid it from my child. I wanted him to know how good we had it. You Younger people need to watch the others on this Chanel who REALLY had a HARD af life… nerve Sorry call me whatever

The fact that she’s one-week postpartum makes this interview absolutely compelling. It’s NOT just him and her, there’s an elephant in the room.

Just unbelievable.

She is in fantasyland. A friends addict daughter says the same about her baby. The baby was taken away because they were concerned the mother would sell her to pedophiles for money for drugs if she hasn't already. She is three, screams if anyone comes near her , has learning disabilities, can't seem to bond with anyone. Can't play with other children. This is who I feel sorry for and the hell she will have to endure not by her choice but because her mother made the choice to do drugs. There are plenty of people who had horrible childhoods and chose not to do drugs. You always have a choice. Unless you are their child. Makes me sick every time I see her.

@@kizelizthis is a good setup for a cluster B personality disorder.

I would said it so sad! ​@@EvaSawicka

I agree 1000% personally I could never be in any kind of relationship with someone I used with. When i got sober i cut out everyone that was in that circle.

It’s common in addiction unfortunately .. it’s founded on co dependency and drug fueled toxicity masked as a relationship … speaking from personal experience and having seen this from multiple couples around me … slim chances of either one getting clean until they seperate, they could clean up alone and then get back together tho

In the recovery community we call this trauma bonding. However, I work for an opiate treatment facility, and it can be done. We have couples who come together for treatment. It has to be an equal level of commitment for recovery.

@@MoAli-wm4of So True Mo. When Justin joined, NO mention of their beautiful baby.

You ain't lying it's definitely a bad idea to go back to anyone you used with

I have no hope for people unable to be honest with themselves.

Thank you for your honesty. You are a Super High Functioning addict. Kudos to you. You should write a book about your life. It would be from an interesting perception.

Sending you love and support. It's not easy to face and overcome an addiction, especially with a trauma-inducing job like firefighting. I hope you find peace to leave it in your past. You can do it. Be well.

What!!!??? Stop firefighting, dude.

I hope you get the help you need! Cudos for being high functioning and holding a job, but do this for YOU. you have a purpose and you matter!

@@ChavonJWright They said they're on Suboxone now....

100%

Yep. The pain can be empty and dull, or it can be acute psychic and physical discomfort. Either way, it seems endless. Intractable. Unbearable.

I wish more people could understand instead of being rude and horrible 😪

Not true you can. Stop your emotions and still be clean just excuses

@@beabeauchamp956 oh absolutely I agree with you. I didn't say it's not possible to not sit with your emotions, I just said that this is the reason for addiction. It's definitely possible to heal the emotions and heal addiction, we just have to learn to sit with emotions like you said.

I feel like it common for grandparents to take the role as the parents. I was raised by my grandmother as well, because my living situation with my mother wasn’t really suitable for a child to grow up in.

I totally get that

@@Earthspirit555 🙏🏽💛😊

@@ladylaois8184 🙏🏽💛😊

yeah me too ..

That's great to hear

It’s called being “dissociated”. Trauma….

Poster Children for Mandatory Abortions.

I wish they would love their children as much as they loved themselves....

She openly said that “he wasn’t going through withdrawals and was healthy” - stating clearly that she was using while pregnant. The statements validity is up for question.

@@hannuhlynn yeah drug addicts LIE

Exactly

@@hannuhlynn and you believed all that ? Good for you .

You don't understand addiction.

A walking corpse is a zombie sherlock you didnt learned anything from the movies?

Justin looks 1000 years old holy crap

They don’t want it.

And her scratching all the time is NOT a good sign.

Thank you for saying it in that aspect.

Same

Same about my parents too. Eventually you realize everyone is just human.

Excellent realization and comment. Only after forgiveness/acceptance can we forgive ourselves for taking on others burdens that aren't our own. It's the only way to crush the cycle and rise above it.

they wont. not in the state they are in now

The way she talks she wants to get her kids back and still use

I agree Bill

Agreed.

They won’t. You can see they’re clearly still using and have no intention of stopping anytime soon.

i feel like the recovery environment these days caters to ppl being like that too. "its ok, your an addict, its a disease, you cant help it"

Exactly, more than likely that baby came out strung out on drugs smh

Right, and she says she wants to get her kids, but she gets a tattoo across her face, of her deadbeat bf. She doesnt even care enough to keep some things quiet in this interview incase CPS sees it.

Imagine receiving involuntary electrical shots every 15, 20 or 30secs. Non stop. U try to manage these involuntary shots to little avail until something challenging happens to you during the day and those electrical shots start again. That’s how they feel. Look how much she moves, scratches herself and is fidgety… 🙏🏻 Its hell…

I agree - I am often torn with these people too. It is a disease but you need to seek treatment and you shouldn’t be having babies. I lost my little brother in 2012 to a heroin overdose. He had just completed rehab and died the same day he got out. It’s heartbreaking loving an addict.

@Steven Jackson Yes, hard drugs ARE from the devil, and so are the sub-humans who make them (Big pharma) and the kingpins who organize their trafic for mega profits. I admire you for your honesty and wish you the very best for a full recovery. Keep hanging on the God more than men and you will succeed

proud of you .

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Stay strong 💪🏻

Have you been able to stay with the methadone? Use it to not be sick, not to not be high because you HAVE to find something that gives you joy. I’ve been in MAT since 2015 and haven’t touched a strrrt drug or broke the law since 2012 and it’s definitely what you make of it. If you depend on MAT alone it doesn’t work but if you focus on what gives YOU meaning that means a lot more. Much respect and love to you I’m so fucking glad I was already off the streets before this fentanyl crap was everywhere

Excellent comment!

Thank for your honesty

The chaos can be just as addictive as the drugs. It's really just comes down to people like us have an addictive personality and anything can easily turn into an addiction.

Same here, but I keep doing the right thing one day at a time. I've been clean since 2-14-20 and even though my life is better than it has ever been, I still catch myself thinking about the first hit and how good it feels...

@@fresatx WTF?!

@@wendyrobison1973 The chaos is called "acting out": "People say a child is “acting out” when they exhibit unrestrained and improper actions. The behavior is usually caused by suppressed or denied feelings or emotions. Acting out reduces stress. It's often a child's attempt to show otherwise hidden emotions. Acting out may include fighting, throwing fits, or stealing." Its easier to "act out", than to deal with your emotions as there are so much anxiety related to them. So you just spew them out to avoid them. So it serves the exact same purpose as any other addiction. There are no "addictive personalities", its something that has its roots in the infant-mother relationship. And anyone can become an addict.

A most utterly selfish desire…to try to get her baby back. WHY is she trying to get her newborn baby back at this point? Is it because she can more easily get benefits?? I do not get it and I decided to not finish watching after the first 5 minutes which is where I paused it to make this comment. The end.

Well said 👏🏽 I hate to admit it, but I think the very same thing when I hear those words in these interviews. I’m not judging harshly or anything, I just want to clarify what they are REALLY saying.

I need some "free birth control" how is it free & where is it free?

except it's not free everywhere.

Refraining from sex is free. She also( I know for an absolute fact) would qualify for Medicaid that would 100 percent pay for various forms of birth control including BCP, IUD, Shots and even covers permanent birth control like tubal ligation. So yes, birth control for her is 100 percent free. Also there are a ton of STD clinics in Southern California that offer free simple birth control options like condoms. So I would just like anyone doubting whether these people have access to free birth control, the answer is they do. Now, whether they take advantage of that is a different story...

Your city health clinic def gives out free birth control. So I second, birth control is free Edit: they give out condoms for free

No. lol. Mirena IUDs are $450.

Being adopted can be a trauma in itself imo. He stated he was trying to find his sister while he ran away as a child. Also, his parents only gave him up and continued having kids after him.

Yeah n his adoptive dad abandon him n wife wen he was 10 or 12yrs old n never saw him again. Much Trauma I wd say.

She is absolutely capping on that one

@@jessicajennifer9827 she over dosed 6 times this year..

@taylorXo bro I know her irl, haven't talked to her in YEARS, because the last time I spoke to her, she stole my car!!! I told her after meeting her like twice that if she ever felt her life was in danger or that she felt like she needed to get away from where she was, that I would pick her up IN A HEART BEAT. So she used that to her advantage, had me drive an hour to come get her, and when I got there, she INVITED ME IN BECAUSE SHE WASNT DONE GETTING READY. then I took her and got her food, ran a few errands, stopped back in the town I came from to run inside Rite Aid to get a fucking ice cream cone, was going to take her anywhere she needed to go, and I came back outside AND MY CAR WAS GONE! She is not as pure as everyone thinks or she tries to portray her self as. I haven't talked to her in years, so I guess I can't say anything about who she is as a person now (although in the past months I've STILL heard only bad things about her and the things she's done to mutual friends). But I DO know that her baby was born addicted. And she gets mail sent to my bestfriends house, and a letter just came to her house recently about how they're looking for her because the case worker is still waiting to hear from her about her kid. I do not feel bad about talking about her in a negative light because I tried so hard to help her and she did me so dirty and cost me my job because of it, and still talks shit about ME like I did ANYTHING to her LOL. FUCK that and fuck this boohoo ass shit. She IS NOT a victim.

@@mclovinu3046 your story is crazy, if real...do you take back your car at least ?

@@mclovinu3046 she is a victim...now she is doing all those horrible things but it has not started with her. Yes she is an adult and should take responsibility of her actions but she is a victim...not every traumatized person is an addict but every addict is traumatized.. not my words Gabor Mate's

They’re more likely to die together rather than get sober together.

So sad imagine the baby having to go cold turkey right after being born jesus

Wow, what a disgusting comment. Based on that logic you would also support locking up women who want to have an abortion, women who smoke cigarettes, and women who, for whatever reason, do not receive full pre-natal care. Besides, if you knew anything about this subject, at all, you would know that the modern and resonsible apprach to treating pregnant female opioid addicts is not to take them off the opioids, but to replace the opioids with an appropriate substitute like methadone or buprenorphine, as opioid withdrawels can lead directly into having a miscarriage.

@@jayb2250 A newborn is obviously not going to know that they are drug dependent, so their withdrawels are not comparable to the near agony that a knowing adult would experience. Cases of adults who were not aware of their physical dependence show that withdrawels of opioids are surprisingly manageable until one knows what is causing them. When people do not attribute their symptoms to withdrawel (this frequently happens to people who have been prescribed opioids, as well as to fairly new users of illegal opioids) they often tend to experience them as no worse than a little flu, as that is what they will feel like in the absense of conscious drug cravings and the knowledge that one hit could make everything okay again. The worst agony of opiod withdrawels is caused by the knowledge of what causes them. So as sad as it is to see a little baby crying because of their withdrawel symptoms, it is highly doubtful that they feel anywhere near as bad as a knowing adult. And in the extreme cases in which babies experience massive physical symptoms, they are not left to go cold turkey anyways, they will be treated with opioids and then slowly weaned off over time.

@@justacatwhocantype bro it might be slightly not as bad because you don't know what it is but you have no idea what you're talking about if you think going cold turkey from heavy opioid use feels like "a little cold"

​@@jayb2250 Actually I speak from experience. I used opioids, both prescriptions and heroin for many years, and I am still on methadone today. I went through the pheomenom that many users do at the beginning, the odd believe that I am the one person on the planet that would not become dependent. There were several times when I experienced what I now know were withdrawels. Because I was a dumb teenager this did not occur to me, and I figured that since I was sick, I probably should not be doing drgs, so it took a long time until the day came when I caught on that things are actually the exact other way around. After that discovery, once I knew what the cause was, the symptoms that I would originally be able to just deal with became unbearable. This is, as I know from drug therapy, a fairly common phenomenom. Yes, opiods *are* obviously pysically highly addictive, but the unbearablesness of the withdrawels is directly linked to knowing of the cause. When your are in pain, puking, sweating, etc. and you think you are sick, you will accept it and wait to improve. When you know that it is withdrawels it becomes impossible to accept. You can compare it to a person that is dying from what they understand is a 100% fatal condition and has just made peace with it, vs a person that is locked in a room that is slowly filling up with water and they know that there is a key hidden in there somewhere.

It’s actually not just 1 street.. it’s an area in the city.

@@glowingsme7943 I mean "the street" Iin a general term to mean outside the studio. I'm aware it's a whole area.

@@truth-hurts3089 If you’re interested here’s a channel where the channel creator walks around Skid Row filming: ru-vid.com/show-UCQxUDxIC1O-e74DuP4Mzq6w

He's got a couple videos where he shows a little bit of skid row. Only thing is alot of the ppl there don't wanna be on camera AT ALL.....

Trust me I’m from la and skid row is horrible… tbh it’s no leaving that place

Do not patronize her, please.

Well ya, that’s part of being an addict. Kinda stating the obvious huh?

@@Jay-hp6pu Not really, That's why she's still as a place in her life where she's at.

To state the obvious, he's a man, she's a woman. Just as they both said, he's mostly calm and patient, she's mostly emotional and concerned. He needs her empathy and love, she needs his emotional stability and love. That's how most guys are and why they are attractive to women, and vice versa. Both could live independently, but they're far happier and more secure as a couple.

@Jen Green You may be right, Jen. It's hard to tell because the fentanyl plays such an overriding element holding them together. I wonder if their relationship would survive sans drugs? What would your guess be, Jen?

How did your baby not have any withdrawals while you were on suboxone?

@@jasl9987 some opiates cross the placenta and affect the baby more than others. In my experience, morphine did cause withdrawal symptoms, but subutex didn't, and I'm on a very high dose.

@@pamelaeiskina3838 wow... thats interesting. I didnt know that. I'm also on it and thats a reason I never wanted to have another kid. I thought he/she would have withdrawals.

Noooo she will tattoo on her forehead whatever her grandma said.

@@rubymorris44 "you're fucked" would be an interesting forehead tat

She said she od’d 6 times in her life. Not this year. And for people that are active as they are, od’ing is basically normal.

@@blondie8822 oh thanks for the clarification. Regardless it's very sad she was on fentanyl while pregnant. I feel for both her and her new baby. It's really sad.

@@JessBrookeAllen She has a lot of denial in her life.

11:35 she definitely said this year

No she literally said 6 times this year.

Like fetal alcohol damage? I agree, there are so many health issues these poor kids can go thru.

Or just get sober and leave that baby alone. :(

Chavon wright, it seems you always have something negative to say about drug addicts that are being interviewed!! You must have had an experience in your life with an drug addict or traumatic experience if I may say?!?!? Due to you have alot of anger at these people that are struggling with ADDICTION!!! How about encourage those struggling so maybe they will open their eyes and get the courage to change!!! You seem to be very Lonely, Miserable man nothing better to do then down on others if you don't want to be understanding of willing to see how and what addiction does then WTF are you watching these type of channels? Have a blessed day 😊

is she okay? i want to help her she is so beautiful

Captain SavAho. Good idea🤣 you should let her and her STD-littered boyfriend move in to your mom’s house

I'm not saying "they both ain't shit" but unfortunately, I've been in her shoes, with a man with a grandiose attitude & huge ego. Usually very self centered. They do the bare minimum for their significant other & think they do SO MUCH & want endless praise! Like "bitch, you're lucky I love you or I wouldn't have given you the last hit off the half smoked Doral light I found on the ground. You're welcome!" & she's like "Ty baby! You're SO sweet! What did I do to deserve such a perfect boyfriend?!" It's almost like Stockholm syndrome & codependency at it's finest. If he said he's been "doing everything he can" to make sure they have what they need & she were to be like "um, but we're still sleeping outside"?? He'd likely reply with a "fuck you, ungrateful ass bitch. I work my ass off to make sure we're taken care of" while she still goes hungry & wears the same clothes for a month.

@@toxic_city I have experienced the same. However, when you get pregnant, you are responsible for another life. When there is a child involved, their needs to be put ahead of the mothers. AND dad needs to care too. Which he doesn't lol. So, I stand by my original statement

Well said Masha

@@toxic_city I will never understand these women, it's mind boggling. Same with the kind of women who like badboys/criminals, no sympathy for them when the shit hits the fan, which it always will at some point.

@@diegoshepherd3464 thank you sir 🙏

Yeah a “healthy newborn” while smoking fentanyl. Not a chance, so sad. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I believe she said she was sober for 3 years while working at a recovery center and is a licensed estetitian (sp?) but maybe we just skipped that part and can't see the good in people 🙃 Not to say she should get her kids back right NOW but never? The kid is better off with their sober mother than in American foster care anyway.

@@k_xxo exactly.....massive denial .. I was trying so hard not to be sarcastic. I felt literally ill when she said he was born "HEALTHY" and not "drug addicted". and by her presentation and her behavior she's doing more than "smoking fentanyl"

@@rnkim2564 I don’t understand why people in her position aren’t on birth control. Makes me want to SCREAM.

@@k_xxo Same reason why they are on the streets, Addiction.

But they won't pull each other out from the pit they're in. If anything each is more likely to not come out as long as the other one is there to do it with. They are codependent.

They broke my heart. Justin seems like a respectful, kind soul. Kim also. I hope they get up and out of skid row... that would at least be a start. My mama heart feesl such sadness

Um, how is a drug addicted homeless woman having a baby have a " good heart "?

Oh you two, you two. You both deserve so much more. It took me 10 slow seconds to admire both of your best qualities. What scares me so much is that your both on borrowed time. My point meaning on any given hour that 1 of you will be eaten up by the concrete jungle. I will pray for both of your saftey every day. If i had the money or the space i would scoop you both up and your new little boy. Your going to make!!!!

@@lisavargas459 how is she not a dead beat?

Sounds like she was using her grandmother as her enabler.

Yes, what she's did was wrong. You think she liked doing it? You have no idea what happens to an addicts mind when they're in active addiction. Do you have any loved one's that are in active addiction?

Yes they do destroy lives, because they have a disease, *the* hardest to treat and cure. Their family still loves them nonetheless.

@@JennaH-l1j I re-read Sally's comment. Not once does she say she thinks ''she liked doing it'' she simply stated her theory/opinion. I had 5 brothers...2 are dead because of addiction. BOTH drained our mother and grandmother mentally, emotionally, and financially until my sister and I put a stop to it. I'd say Sally is right on in making her point. Drug addiction is devastating to the addicts entire family....if you love them

@@kellyjoe1110 she insinuated. Being a former addict and now volunteering at several treatment center’s she gives me the impression she’s one of those, “just a junkie” “why can’t they just stop” types. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not defending an addicts behavior, never will. A lot of families don’t understand by not giving them anything is the best help. When family members give money and then stop, addicts justify in our fucked up minds that stealing is ok because they gave us money in the past. A lot of people are ignorant to this and don’t care anything about it, they only care when it happens to them.

Very touching i bet they invite you for a dinner now

Imagine what it would be like if they lived with her. It's the generational cycles of abuse. If that shit was taught in schools at a early age what a difference it would make. Unfortunately if you don't go to school for social work or make it to rehab the chance of you being educated on that is nill.

Yes.

That is the nature of addiction. She is a sick woman. Physically spiritually and emotionally. It raveges the soul. I should know i was addicted for 27 years

Looks have nothing to do with this. They are in a incredibly toxic co dependant relationship based on hard drugs. She literally gave birth a week ago and back on the streets doing drugs. They can't push each other to do anything but get high. She needs alot more help than just him.

Yes, so sweet to commit fraud and theft then give birth to drug addicted babies and abandon them to get high.

Neither will make it to 2024

Yep these two definitely are on top of people magazine’s list of 100 most attractive people

What does it say to you?

Lol they’re not controlling their anger, they’re masking it by getting high

She is. I know her. When she was 3 years sober

@@sabellaneal awww

@@kristinab1078 bro when you’re withdrawalinh you’ll do things you never thought you’d ever do. Why you think so many woman addicts turn to prostitution?

@@abes3925 I know. I wouldn't call them "good" as the original commenter noted though.I wouldn't necessarily call them "bad" either (though some clearly are). I would use the term "tormented souls." They seem to be walking through a kind of hell every single day, often of their own making.

right lol

They're happy because they're stoned off their ass.

@Sushi Cookie junkies always have some lame excuse. The ones (like her) that piss me off is when they bring innocent children into their shit. She just had a baby, odds are, baby was born addicted

I'm sorry but , I don't believe that her baby wasn't born addicted.

dude... It sounds like your own problems are a little bit more pressing than what you seem to be preaching. Maybe instead of taking the time to write a paragraph on youtube (full of misspellings and bad grammar) you could try a thing or two to get yourself better. Besides what good does your comment even do? Do you think that Kim is really gonna read this? Dont hate, Dont Judge. Deal with your own shit and only say something like that to someone if the person is open to listening.

And she says not having an address is the reason she can’t get hired. It has nothing to do with that tattoo on her face. She just plain doesn’t care

Babies withdraw from subs and methadone. It is difficult for the child and mother no matter what path they take. Subs and methadone have a longer half life so the withdrawal for babies is actually longer and worse. The goal is to keep the mother alive which in turn keeps the baby alive. Don't judge anyone, period.

Ditto. Zero accountability and disgusting with that baby in her belly

@@deen8842 it doesn’t take a week. If the baby is not withdrawing by now it’s not going to. Thankfully

@@deen8842 That baby would have been rushed to the NICU as soon as he was born and out of her grasp. She just never saw that baby in withdrawal.

@@deen8842 the baby is a week old. Pay attention.

@Dee Bias The baby is a week old now, that was what the reference to a week was.

Existence is the cause of every person's suffering. Antinatalism is the way.⚡

100% facts

I wish I was never born. That's why I am for abortion. It is better to never be that be with feeling unwanted all your ife.

Let's be honest sometimes abortion is better.

Almost every foster kid wails, "I wish I was never born."

I was thinking the same thing about him as he shared. He may not have been heeding his adopted father's sermons but the language within stuck.

Lovely words x

Its their life. They can't live life always full of shame. They know its not the best decisions but they are theirs.

@@joshuaaugustin5005 Unfortunately, their decisions also impact the lives of their families and the babies they bring into the world. That's the shame of the whole thing. They suck others into their chaos like a whirling tornado.

Chances are that baby wasn’t taken because of a lack of an address but because it tested positive for opiates…. She seems to really be in denial of what her actions do to her babies….

@@christian5707 exactly

Baby was likely born addicted

She’s lying

That baby was born sick and needed a fix bad! Sad!

Right?!?! I don't care how high i am i would never tattoo someone's name on my body much less my face !

I can imagine that deterring would be employers as well😶

It can be covered with make up

I would never get a face tat but others like them. Whatevs. His is bigger than hers but it’s only visible in profile.

I think that’s the least of her worries tbh, she can always cover it with makeup.

I really hope he does see this just so she can get it checked out just in case that is what it is.

Right? I got so worried when I saw her swollen feet.

thx for observing this. 🙏🏻

Cud be the drugs and that she shoots up unless she's just smoking. But I notice and frum personal experience peoples hand and feet swell when they shoot up opiates. And some people on opiates actually gain weight .

i think everybody is

Shut up Dope Head 🙄🤫🤫🤫

@@methsmokingneanderthaltrai5309 self reflection must suck for you. I’m not addicted to anything but cigarettes. I don’t even drink. Try again.

@@methsmokingneanderthaltrai5309 I hope you have the day you deserve. 💖

@@methsmokingneanderthaltrai5309 how empty is your life that you made a troll account just to play idiot on this comment section. The people you're trying to mock have better lives than you, i know cause I've done drugs in the past but never was my existence as empty as yours seems to be. Hope you get it together one day.

True

Looking for Justin's story in the SFU Channel but did not see anything. Could you link it? Would love to watch that one.

@@Interstellarpickles what’s the right way to look at it, especially the kids of users?

@@Interstellarpickles I don’t think that at all. Like I said, I don’t really bat an eye to addicts without children because no one is dependent on them. I think being an addict with children is 100% selfish no doubt about it, but I also understand how and why addicts are made. My main point was that you can’t use your parents addictions and vices as an excuse to pass that down to your children by being an addict with no plans to change. At that point you’re not just trying to get by for yourself, but most importantly your children. I understand that some of my feelings aren’t necessarily rational but my comment wasn’t directed to addicts, I know that shaming addicts does no good. Just giving my view as a child, a grandchild, a niece, and a cousin of addicts.

@@kaitlyngraham7276 I just disagree that even if someone gets clean they’ll always relapse and once they’ve fucked up so much they can’t be helped. I think silver linings are possible and people can be beautifully resilient and forgiveness of oneself and others through retribution and hard work can be a beautiful thing

@@Interstellarpickles I don't think there is any redemption for mothers who use during pregnancy. They should live the rest of their lives in tormented shame.

@@Zachmegoodin that I agree with

Facts! She’s gotta break those generational curses. She’s the one they’ve been waiting for. 💖

@lilaworley please lets be friends, i needed to read that, thank you

Exactly! My husband and I broke the cycle, changed the future for our kids, otherwise the dysfunction would've continued if we followed our parents examples!

This needs to be pinned 🙏🏾🙌🏽🥰

Nicely spoken! I had my son at 38, and my devotion to him kept me out of so much trouble, I felt a little guilty noticing he was like my shield and honest conscience, and that his spirit even came to me to Help this generational cleansing. I'm so proud of him now, he takes such good care of himself and does not carry on his parents ' worst traits'

@@lsdseaweed2491 The bond between a mother and child is the strongest (or, it CAN be). It makes no difference what mom looks like. Children are far more accepting and open minded than adults.

@@lsdseaweed2491 you might be surprised. You just have no real idea. Pop culture is FULL of face tattooed people. Kids are used to seeing it.

@@dp6970 Yes, it can be. But not always. I was adopted and met my birth mom when I was 15. Since then, I've seen her in person about 4 times. I always hope she doesn't die from an overdose, but we have nothing in common. My adopted mom is who I consider my mother because she raised me and made sure I adjusted well to the world. I'm now 30, and I've never done drugs nor cigarettes. I've tried weed a few times and used to drink socially, but don't enjoy alcohol anymore. I'm glad I was adopted.

@@HaileysHealth That’s why I wrote in parentheses “or, it CAN be”. Meaning, not always, of course. And, the bond you have with your adoptive mother proves my point. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a birth mom or other, the bond between ANY mother figure is strong.

@@lsdseaweed2491 you must know her, reading all your teardown responses on people's comments, this is personal to you. Best of luck in healing

Great couple?
