@@00duck72 to pretty much everyone else addiction is a disease it’s a living hell to some people I do not possibly know how you can think that addiction is a symptom
She looks the same as she did 25 years ago. She may have addiction in her DNA but she also has some amazing genes when it comes to staying youthful looking.
@@srrram0s I'm not sure why I'm engaging you but what in the hell are you talking about? There is plenty of scientific data that says genetics plays a large part in a persons susceptibility to addiction. I'm not saying it's all genetics or always because of genetics. So unless you have some new ground breaking data that is peer reviewed I have to ask you what in the Hell are you talking about??
@@chelsey4188 I'd take that bet if I could. She doesn't wear makeup but she gets Botox done? You can usually tell and maybe you have a better eye for it than me but I'm not so sure. She really doesn't seem the type. My ex sister in-law had the same kind of thing going but with dark hair. She looked the same at 20 as she does now at 39 and has 3 kids. Her body would snap back within a few months. Some Women just hit the genetic lottery. but for all I know Jodi has a NASCAR Pit crew work on her before she leaves the house.
She's one of these 'rare' people who've had equal amounts of hardship and happiness in life. And it has made her a very 'well-rounded' person out of it all.
Rare? That isn't rare at all. It just takes a lot of letting yourself be upset where you hadn't before. This is what forgiveness after trauma gives you. It takes A LOT of deep reflection and severe lows to get there but it happens all the time.
@@helRAEzzzer Jodie has had a 'full' and joyful, stable life aside from her addictions. Most who go through rehab because of childhood addiction are not so lucky.
There's nothing better about acting one way or another. You are a victim. How you "act" has little to do with what happened to you. it's a performance... putting out there what you want to project. It doesn't mean anything except to those looking in from the outside.
Not saying this is the case for Jodie but many are victims of the pharmaceutical industry. Sadly MILLIONS were prescribed OC under the pretense that it wasnt addictive when its a highly addictive drug. Take any person that isnt prone to addiction, give them OC for 10 days and I guarantee theyd become addicted. Its just that addictive. I know many people that became addicted when given that drug from their doctor. The sackler family and pharmaceutical industry needs to be held accountable. Regardless most addicts and recovering addicts know it is their responsibility to get better and playing the victim card doesnt help. Those that play the victim card are in denial. Im not disagreeing im just saying the sackler family and pharmaceutical industry are monsters.
@@GeekFurious "There's nothing better about acting one way or another." *False. Those who don't progress past victimization delay their own progress past the point of the event.* "You are a victim." *So the 'act' specified above is merely an act because one cannot be anything but a victim? So then, by your own line of thinking (quoted above) you lied. If one "acts" like anything but a victim, then (by your thinking) they aren't acting in a way that is genuine.* "How you "act" has little to do with what happened to you." *So again, the act is irrelevant since it "has little to do with what happened to you". Therefore, the victimization is what defines you.* "it's a performance... putting out there what you want to project." *Only your victimization is real...you repeat yourself a lot.* "It doesn't mean anything except to those looking in from the outside." *Anything but acting like the victim you are, since your victimization is what defines you, is insincere, inorganic.* *All in all, repetitive and nihilistic. Naturally, it's also entirely incorrect. You better tread carefully because what you said also has undertones of solipsism and narcissism.*
I am close in age to Jodie Sweetin, grew up watching the original Full House, knew that she had some addiction issues, and just now learned that she was born in jail and then adopted. She’s absolutely right that sometimes after terrible things happen that they lead to something better happening. Gratitude is a learned skill that leads to optimism and inner peace.
Through all the rough patches on her life, she still looks just like she did on Full House. So happy she came out the other side of her active addiction healthy
Jodie I’m so happy to see you recover and really educate yourself with recovery knowledge. You are a beautiful woman and I love how courageous you are to openly share this difficult story.
Yes. On Fuller House they put makeup on hee to make her look older. She has no makeup on at all and looks great. Candice needed to make sure she looked like the young one. Candice piles on the makeup. I love Candice but she still has issues with food and getting older.
I had no idea how much she has been through. I respect her as a survivor and as someone turning the negatives into positives through the wisdom of experience. It takes a lot of strength, heart and resilience to do that. So much respect to her
I am in a similar position as her mother. My grand-niece came to live with us when she was 2, due to bio parents unfortunate addiction issues, and we officially adopted her a few years later. Now she's a happy, healthy 9 year old girl, but I do worry about how she will feel as different feelings start to come about regarding her adoption. All we can do is be there for her and let her know how much she is loved, regardless of her past.
Also consider getting her into therapy so she can work through those feelings when they do arise. You love her and will be there for her, but it's easier for a mental health professional to pull those feelings out and help her have a safe space to release them. It doesn't hurt anything and the right therapist can be beneficial for you the parents as well as for your daughter.
I would suggest having an open door policy for questions about first family. If you have access to baby pictures even through Facebook I would suggest making an album of pictures of her through the years. Both in first home and adoptive home. That helped my adopted siblings.
I was adopted in 1960 as a newborn. I was raised being told I was special because I was chosen. Hence, I literally felt sorry for my non-adopted friends who were just "had", lol. I knew several other adoptees who never talked about being adopted because they were ashamed of it. It was an open topic in our family. I was often referred to as the "adopted one" in the extended family. This made me feel singled out and special. Secrets imply shame and there were certainly no secrets around my being adopted ... thanks Mom and Dad, you really nailed that whole mindset.
Do you think adoption traima is a real thing even if your family does everything correctly? Some people say that newborns miss their birth moms and are deeply connected to them.
You get a special bond with these child actors you watched during your childhood so her story does kinda get to me. Parents are the fundament of how you turn out as a person and not knowing them or feeling not wanted can truly fuck you up. It's like a guilt that will forever stay programmed in your brain even in a successful life.
I had no idea she was adopted and her biological parents were such messes. She might have had made bad choices along the way but at least she’s thriving now and that’s what matters. Some people can’t stop the cycle and hopefully she did for her and her kids.
All the stuff I've watched and read about Full House and the actors from the show, and I didn't know she was adopted or born in jail or any of that. I'm glad she pulled through and seems like such a cool person with a great sense of humor.
Her adoptive mom pushed to never had that publicized when she was a kid. I think that was the right call. Especially with the unenlightened views that people in the 90s had about adoption and incarcerated people.
I find this interesting because I was raised in a very similar way. Biological parents had addiction and mental health problems, in and out of jail, was raised by other family connected to my bio parents. I never wanted to be like my bio parents, so I avoided drugs and alcohol completely. It's interesting to see what different paths people in somewhat similar circumstances take.
Holy shit! I knew she was adopted and did meth for a while when she had a copy husband, but didn't realize how much the decks were really stacked against her genetically.
I was the same way, adopted, had amazing parents, but I still dealt with addiction and mental illness. It's interesting. Love to sit down with her one day we have a ton in common. I did meet her once but I was real young and so was she.
She was always my favorite full house character, Stephanie. You have no Idea how much I watched that show growing up. I ended up finding my self in addiction too. Luckily 6 years sober on March 9th. I love watching you and how you've become such a wonderful woman. ❤️❤️🌻🌻 You deserve health and happiness, sunshine!
Tons of mental illness,drinking & drugs in my family to. went through really bad drinking all throughout high school. It wasn't until I was forced to grow up when my single adopted father passed away. I had to all of a sudden take care of my younger brother who is blind & autistic. It was really eye opening to see not only had I been neglecting myself but also my little brother. there's only so far you can put blame on the parents at some point you just gotta force yourself to do what's right for you and those around you.
Addiction and mental illness runs in from my dads side and my mom DRILLED it into us that we are prone to get stuck on something, so I experimented, but I was super strict with myself when it came to substances LOL got addicted to food.
I got to show this to my son! He is 13 1/2 and has such a similar history and now I see it in her! It is soo true the predisposition to addiction is a real thing in these cases.
i can relate 100% my parents were both addicts and are both dead but I was lucky enough to be adopted by my grandparents at a young age! knowing what my parents were is why I refuse to be like them.
I grew up in the city right across from the High School she attended. I had friends who lived in my neighborhood but who attended the same High School she did and they would always have party stories to tell us. The kid that was on Roseanne also attended that same High School. Glad to see she is doing better than ever.
Always thought she was the best character in that dumb show-cute, spunky and honest (watched it when I was 13-14 & it was first run on TV). Child actors can only pretend so much. Figured that was her real personality and assumed she'd grow up to be a pretty and dynamic grown up woman. Boy, was I right. God bless you, Miss Sweetin, from a boy who watched you in 1988....
@@jamiehess4211 I agree, I always thought it was a bit of "her" we were seeing and always thought she was the funniest of them (just a little laid back/sarcastic and sort of nonchalant cool).
I am so glad she is doing well. I have always thought she was beautiful, but haven't had the chance to hear her talk. What a wonderful person. I wish her continued success in all she does.
Full House was a bit before my time but I watched all the reruns growing up. I’ve always thought that, even as a really little kid surrender by adults and professionals, Jodie was the greatest actor on that entire show. She is a true talent and I’m happy to see her doing well.
I love this so much. I remember full house. Not a faithful watcher but grew up with it on every morning in the background. I fell in love with this lol.
Love her outlook on life ❤ I was actually born during a keg party lol my dad's idea of a baby shower for my mom, no shock that they were in their late teens lol long story but as an adult it's always interesting to share
I'm a fellow adoptee, except I was taken from my mother at birth by the Canadian government and put in an orphanage until I was picked up by a pack of violently abusive two-legged hyenas, consequently I was orphaned to the dope and the drink and the streets at a pretty early age but managed to horse my way through alcoholism and all the chaos that accompanies that lifestyle, sometimes I think adoptees are naturally stronger than most other people by default because none of us had a fuckin' choice. I have been clean and sober for 23 years now, no culty, co-dependant AA nonsense either just good strong, steady therapy, and not until I could "feel something hurt" then quit like most people do but all the way through until I could actually feel my sea legs gather strength underneath me...it's a good thing, although some people are expecting everything to sort of come up roses when they sober up but it's no picnic, it is tolerable though until you can find your cadence and groove with the fuckin' universe, I always tell people SOBER stands for "Son Of a Bitch Everything's Real..."
Man what a cool, articulate, humble and just beautiful inside and out. She is just such a inspiration. Such a dope personality too. could totally hang out with her and just have a good time she just seems so fun and awesome to be around and has so many good qualities all while being a "child star" but genuinely having so much hardship also. I'm just in awe man.
When I was little she and I looked identical and I used to get stopped all of the time with people thinking I was her and that my mom was lying when she told them I wasn’t Jody Sweetin. I think she aged a lot better than me though, lucky her! 😹 She has an amazing story!
From being from a cute stupid show this woman's freaking rad man. Like I it's hard to find these humble strong yet brutally honest and doesn't let them define them types of women out here these days
I'm glad I saw this♥️ I heard of her addiction issues(never saw her tv show); I used to worry & pray for her... Damn this young lady is smart! She is gonna be OK!✌️😎 So glad I saw this⭐
One of my most cherished childhood moments was when i met Jodie at Griffith park during christmas time. I was with my cousins and we all took a big photo arm in arm. It was such a great day, the kind of day you'd be wishing time travel existed.
My family on my mom's and dad's side has issues with addiction and mental illness. Some of my siblings have struggled with mental health, It's tough but my family and I just shuffle through, take it day by day.
I’m adopted and was so grateful to be after meeting my biological parents. For me there were no resentment issues. I was adopted by wonderful people after I was born.
I appreciate the fact that she’s real. To be honest I was never into full house because it was so Sanitized to death. The other people on that show put on this pretty perfect Christian act. I appreciate people who are flawed and real to the bone!
@@captinundies6049 Bob Saget is a creep! Both him and John Stamos. If you truly want to be repulsed watch the Bob Saget roast. They talk about Mary Kate and Ashly in the most vial way! They make sexual jokes about them. They have known them since they were babies.It’s unbelievable what comes out of their mouths! The Olson twins have said in interviews that inappropriate things happened on the set. I don’t know to what extent but it was not an environment for any child to be in and that’s evident when you watch Bob Saget and Stamos make those disgusting jokes. I’m guessing that’s why the Olson twins want nothing to do with that show any longer.
So basically you're admitting you're mind is dirty and desensitized to the grotesque, blasphemous and sjw content of today? Rather than watching some real good wholesome stuff that no longer exist cause now Hollywood wants to push same sex relations in every movie and every show? Time for you to get woke.
If you compare her to Candace Cameron, Jodie is definitely a breath of fresh air! There's nothing calculated or manufactured or performative about her.
I get what you mean but as a Christian, i can tell you that it does not equate to perfection. If we were perfect, we wouldn't need God's grace. In fact when Jesus sat and ate with sinners He said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but the sinners". Thats Mark 2:17
Omg girl! You served as a mirror for me when I was a lil one. Your cuteness rubbed off on me. We look similar too. I grew up with business woman mom. And I had resentment as well. Keep being you. Keep on
I love Jodie sweeten so much I grew up watching full house and she was my favorite in the show. She also has had addiction problems much like myself..I always felt like me and her would be best friends 🥰 would LOVE to meet her one day!
I am an adoptee as well and can testify how ones environment shapes a person......not everyone has the same opportunity as everyone else, your environment dictates alot of who you are and who you will be. Just one of the Lies of America...saying we are all equal and everyone has the same opportunity.
You may not have the same opportunity but you do have the choice to make the best out of every situation. You have the choice to be positive and WORK towards a better future. It may not happen overnight, and you may not be rich as an end result but you can make things work if you want to..
Not adopted but I agree, there are a lot of things I didn't get to do because I was always so unstable or focusing all my energy on gaining stability. I look back and think if only I could go back in my current form, I might've actually been able to do that. Now all the trauma has taken a toll on my body, so I can physically do even less. The chronic pain and illness have accumulated. Although I've mostly forgive my mother, I still have some bitterness when I think of these things. I honestly feel like the reason I'm in pain every day is because of her. And that's hard to look past.
Fellow adoptee here also, so very well said and written @Dale Bouwman. 💯As someone who was abandoned by my mom, and losing my dad to an overdose, which resulted in me being placed into the foster care system. Jodi being so vulnerable & open shout her struggles and realizing the trauma of being abandon or displaced, truly touched me. Along with resonating with me as I’m going through this now in my early thirties. The deep sadness I feel often is what was wrong with me, why not choose me and choose the drugs or lifestyle/etc. I have to live with the scars if not emotional pain/heaviness and grief...😔🥀😞 Nevertheless deeply moving clip.
