Homeless and Addicted to Drugs | Hollyoaks 

Omg same here🥺 it just goes to show how familys there for you no matter what you do, theyll always love us🥺

@@PhyscoSatanic6026 I know right, even though my dad is a lovely dad, I know for a fact that if I was trying to beat an addiction (I don’t have one) and was homeless, I know he would be homeless with me to help me. That right there would show me that he loves me and wants to help me.

My mum done it for me I've been clean 2 n half yrs now she died last yr 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

@@macaylareilly254 I’m so sorry to hear about your mum. But what she did with you was a really nice way to remember her despite the situation being awful when you are missing her.

@@macaylareilly254 Awww no im so sorry to hear about your loss, from my team here on RU-vid, we send our love🥺

Franny My 1 Year and 1/2 full blood related little Sister Macey told me that she was going to run away and wanted me to give Gram and Gramps a note saying that she was running away, so Gram and Gramps gave up on her, I wouldn’t say all Parents never give up on their Kids!!!!

@@ChelseyLinden yeah you are right, but me as a parent myself my children are my life and I would never give up on them till the lord call my name and even on my grave I will send sign to them as a way of me protecting them

@@franny9897 My Husband and I would do the same thing if we ever had Kids (Hopefully one Day we’re planning on having Twins like Sebastian and Sophie and Darren’s Twins who’s name’s I can’t remember.).

In real life there usually is a lot harder to get off drugs and drink, than how it is painted out in soaps. It is not only the chemical addiction, but also the psychological one - and than there is the surroundings. What made someone become a drinker or drug addict will, most often, still be there when they get out of rehab. Whether it is people, a particular lifestyle, a particular scene, or stress with life in general. Therefore it is more the rule, than the exception, that people don`t succeed getting clean or sober permanently. The abuse just changes form. Either by switching to a different type of drug - even people meant to be on Metadon tend to add to that from time to time, so the metadon more secure them a daily fix, rather than cures them of their addiction - or by doing drugs or drink in a different pattern. But even this slightly changed behavior can add quality to their health and life, and therefore is a progress. Not the least because it proves to themselves they can change if they try - which could stimulate them to apply more to other aspects of their lives as well, and succeed better there to. And as a consequence of this be more motivated to rid themselves of their addiction in the long run. But it is not unusual for drug and drink rehabilitation institutions to have the same people coming back again and again. Or for people who don`t have access to such help to continue to deteriorate over the years - until dying before someone of their age normally should. Both long time drug abuse and alcohol abuse most often also leaves permanent damage of various kinds, effecting anything from memory to concentration, voice, skin, and that is leaving out the psychological problems ex addicts either has tried to self-cure with drugs or drink, or are forced to face without them. It is sad really, how even those who have managed to leave their addiction behind them, are constantly reminded of them when looking in the mirror, or hearing their voice - and how this again triggers even more painful memories, or let them recall spilt opportunities their addiction has deprived them of in the past. Like when Ollie talked about having ruined his footballing career. Ste was not only a drug addict, but also abusive of his then wife, Amy, because of a not ideal upbringing with a violent stepfather and a mother more concerned about him, than of Ste. Whether he physically and psychologically abused Amy because of what his stepfather had done to him, or because he was gay and needed to camouflage and suppress that fact with a terrifying façade so no one should dare question his masculinity, the show never addressed in full, as I remember. But in his case I will claim coming out as gay, being himself and liked as who he was, more influenced his ability to be a good and caring father, than getting off the drugs did.

@@Tvjunkieful12 that was amazing insight. The addiction in there, however, a few soaps remember that addiction is more about management and thriving in life than becoming “reformed”- changing who you are or getting back to the “old me” (before addiction, the perfect me). Internally people are still the same person, change is more about adaptation.

@@annieareyouok1451 As true as that is, it is also a fact that addiction - drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, porn, exercise, shopping, hoarding, or whatever - is a poor substitute for something that isn't right in the addicts life. In Ste's case, because of how he has changed after he came out, I will claim fear of being discovered to be gay made him aggressive and violent towards his first wife, Amy - while shame of how he had treated her, and insecurity as a result of the physical violence he suffered from his stepfather as a youth was why he needed the escape and chemical hug the drugs offered. I will say it so bluntly, that had Ste not been physically abused by his stepfather, and felt ignored by his mother, he would never have become a drug addict. And had there not been prejudices against gay people, Ste would have been more comfortable with himself and his sexuality, and therefore would not have felt a need to hide his true self behind a brutal and controlling mask - copying to an extent the abuse Ste's own stepfather put Ste through. You are right that to stop drinking, taking drugs or whatever addiction we are talking of, the key success factor is the addict's ability to change routines, thinking and behavior

Sarah Yeates You mean when Peri was homeless and she met Dean and Harley? 😔😔😔😔 I really miss Harley! 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔 I hope she’ll come back to the village permanently and be back in the opening titles again! 😟😟😟😟🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 What do you think Sarah???? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

@@ChelseyLinden yeah do you remember when Leela kicked Peri out because of the mistakes that Peri made but then Leela regretted it instantly and wanted her to come home

@@sarahyeates How can I ever forget Sarah????

@@ChelseyLinden yeah I still remember it as well

Sad thing is he probably won't catch a break since he's dying soon

I appreciate you and yiur comment

You do know its easy to say and hard to do?He's an addict what do you expect they don't mean to push you away

@@t.7821 well you do, have a valid point here but still, he should have excepted his father's help here.

Awwwwh comon Both are just as good This guy is pretty 😚

He hasn`t been diagnosed with Early Onset Dementia for that long - a little more than a year, year and a half. Nancy`s MS to remain so steady for as long as it has now, is far more of a miracle. Early Onset usually leads to death after around 5-10 years. But some are helped by medication or treatments (like dancing) and can increase both life quality and -expectancy. Others again deteriorate so fast, or have been diagnosed so late, they die months after having been diagnosed.

Stupid Ollie

You win a car for 1st comment smh

Sorry but i was

What do you want a trophy
