Crack and cocaine are more mental herion pain killers are physical lol it’s way harder to quit when you’re physically getting sick then just you wanting to get high
It's not the cost of painkillers at the pharmacy with a prescription they are dirt cheap , it's when the doctors cut you off people are forced to buy them on the street , but now all the pills are fake and have fentynol that is killing people
Man we got a problem either way don’t matter on the price it’s the abusive use which affects not only the person but the people around them that’s what really matters
Not too late my brother. Forget the past, the guilt, forget it all. Oct 10 2009 I found a new life. I was no n kid, either. I was 39 years old! You get it all back. It takes time. Be humble, be patient, be grateful.
There is hope, I've been a drug addict, alcoholic for about 55 years. Started with alcohol around 12 years old, then marijuana and started injecting what ever I could get. Then started shooting up cocaine, that lasted until the early 80's , and someone introduced me to crack, then I fell in love, no more tracks, no more long sleeve shirts and that lasted 30 plus years. Today I'm 4 years sober and about 18 months opioid free and recently quit crack. I could not have done this without the Blood of Jesus Christ, there is hope, PLEASE LET HIM INTO YOUR LIFE. It won't be easy, but I promise you, you'll never regret it. This I say, in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ Amen.
@@mad8861 , it did not come without a price. I have cirrhosis of the liver, hepatitis b and c , diabetes, and now severe kidney issues. Hindsight 20/20, the reason I started drinking at 12 was because I had some serious child abuse. I don't want anybody to think they're alone, that's why I share the message of Hope
So true couldn't have said it better I was there for 14 years I chose heroin over my kids family everything I now have 5 years clean it is a war u can win I'm proof never give up.
My problem is my mother went to prison and my dad was a homeless drunk in 1983. I’m a Navajo transgender clean and sober since March of 2000. Always praying 🙏🙏🙏
Its not the only thing at all , From my experience, i live alone and can barely afford rent and bills , food is hard to come by , without family or friends sometimes its nearly impossible to even pass the time when youve lost your job Sometimes smoking weed or something else is less about getting high but more something to do ,to break up the boredom and make things slightly more tolerable , otherwise your sitting there staring at a wall , no one ever visits , your days start to blend together , still no one visits... its all like a trap you cant escape from , im borderline to going outside again for similar reasons , because life is too boring and... empty to feel sober , you end up always high... but always completely broke , and it can be any drug at all , not just heroin , but meth and even weed like myself
Ya, just knowing I'm selling my 1x12 speaker cabinet later for 200 bucks is the most excitement I've felt in a loomg time, had a major brain surgery, got 40% if my cerebellum removed due to a tumor, fuckin bastard turned out to be benign, I almost had my ticket out of here! Such bullshit..can't practice guitar, and I can't paint anymore,u favorite trade that I FINALLY kinda mastered I can't do anymore......the only 2 things I care about, can't even engage in those things anymore. And I miss heroin so much right now, these fuckin pills clump up in the rig and idk where to get fetty powder. Can't even to a decent slam anymore. Let's wrap this shit up already man ...
you have same exact problem as me… Its not the drug.. thats fucked me up. Went through withdrawl last month. Didnt smoke for a month. Being alone for so long makes you think lets do it once . No family no frnds vists as they married.. busy ..
He is 100% correct it’s impossible to explain heroin/fentanyl to someone who has never had to deal with it. Your life will be absolutely consumed by the need to get more heroin/fentanyl just to keep yourself from getting sick and it’s pretty much all you think about 24/7 nothing matters family money possessions all are secondary to getting your fix. The big part is avoiding the withdrawals from the drug the closest comparison would be a massive hangover while having the flu super bad but to a level of intensity that you have never ever experienced you are completely worthless until you get some dope in your system. Yes heroin/fentanyl gives you the absolute best feeling in the world at first it’s like being covered with a warm blanket on a rainy day or being back in the womb all is right in the world but eventually you start to change without noticing and your life falls apart slowly….. if you haven’t started opiates don’t you might have the genes that make you prone to addiction and be off to the races while other people can stop just my 2 cents having been thru years of heroin/fentanyl addiction myself
Imagine breaking a bone, going to get a surgery to fix it, then developing an addiction to the pain meds. When you cant get the meds anymore you turn to heroin. These people have done nothing wrong and yet they fell into the trap. My heart breaks for everyone addicted and all those who have overdosed. Its so scary, and can happen to absolutely anyone.
It’s probably more like “it is what it is” to him. Hates what it’s doing to him, but probably still loves it too much to want to quit and obviously doesn’t have the money for a treatment. Sad.
The Dahmer/David Koresh look isn’t throwing you any favors as well. Notice how he used “Gave up” rather than “lost everything.” Addicts need to address it’s all choices. No one stole your life, family, career, house…. You simply took a substance that rewired your chemical reward system cutting out the middleman^ ie everything in life
You sound like you think you're some kind of expert on the subject of H addiction. How long did your addiction last or are you talking from someone else's experience?
i remember this one. he was very honest but it didn't seem like he had a lot of options. And my assumption is that he is probably still in situation with heroin rather than on his two feet.
I beat it you can to. You gotta love yourself or someone else enough that you don't wanna lose them or lose yourself. It's a everyday struggle my brain is forever changed and I won't be the same. I'm still here though I've got a wife and kids and I'm happy. Nothing is ever worth becoming an addict it's a shit life sad thing is you don't realize until it's too late
I dont know.. a lot of times we go to drugs because there is an underlying issue. He makes it seem like he gave up paradise but I have a feeling there was something up to no good with the Good Place. Either way I hope he gets clean and back on his feet. Its people like this I believe can change the world.
I ran into some homeless people who were on herion in NYC. It’s sad when people decide to use a substance which ends up controlling them. I hope he can overcome the drug addiction with God’s help.
Where is he living that he can still get heroin because as far as I know all the heroin disappeared about two years ago it's all fentanyl and all these sedatives and crap they mixed with it now it's complete garbage. I know people that are begging for heroin to come back and that's sad.
@@BobbyBundlezA lot of people start their addictions at very young ages do to a lot of reasons depression, stress, poverty. It's a cruel world out there
Well no, I gave everything up but my girl for heroin. 2 years sober then we broke up because of something not in our control and I am back on it again. Real love actually feels better then heroin, dope just imitates it.
Your problem is self-loathing. You ref your woman as the P word, rather than as love. That shows a contempt for women, rooted in a contempt/fear of feminine energy, which we all have. Hence, self-loathing. Feminine energy is also vulnerable energy. And what we fear, we often become or draw to us. Homelessness is about the most vulnerable state we can be in.
Kratom got me off my opioid addiction, fare warning, prolong use and abuse of kratom can and will lead to kidney failure, I'm going through that now. Please be careful
Why don't more people just decide to end it after losing everything?? I plan to do this in the near future. It is nearly impossible to start over in life after your 40s especially if you are white since most jobs hire fresh faced 20 somethings
You clearly don't know how additcion works. Some people have addictions so bad the withdrawl can kill them. Quiting something you're addicted to espicially on the streets is a, very, very, tough thing to do.
Don’t value any businesses. Don’t worship something more than another… don’t critique or ask a question. Eat or die. Sell it then we all die. Don’t award anyone it’s all punishing. Don’t impress anyone it’s all lustful. Don’t insult anyone don’t salt. Judging breath what’s your grudge how much for a nudge? It cost to budge as we pay a cripple with attention so what shuns attention “owning” tenants¿ as you can’t claim to own any of “your” creations/destructIons. S no I
I wonder where this guy is , I seen this interview a few years ago ,now that heroin is no longer available and it’s a different substance all together, he looks like a regular down to earth person I would never guess he was addicted to anything, any updates?
I can relate to everything he says but my drug was crack , I'm clean now but I would give anything to turn back time, but unfortunately that's impossible 😢
