Karamo & His Son Share Their Story of Addiction 👨‍👦💔Karamo Full Episode 

He is the only therapist to ever be this honest

"Hey Daddy's baby!!" Of all the beauty in this video, that line warmed my entire heart & soul SO much.

Karamo is soo down to earth much respect to him & his son.

" you will never be a burden to me baby " that made me smile that touched me so proud of the progress made

I normally hate talk shows but I came across this one and decided to check it out….I’m so glad I did, now I watch it everyday. This isn’t a usual talk show, this is one you actually learn a lot from. Karamo is an excellent therapist, every word of wisdom is absolutely genuine and sincere, his wardrobe is amazing!! I love those little silk flower lapel pins and goodness knows there’s no doubt he smells amazing!! Had to give compliments where compliments are due.. You’ve got me Karamo…I’m an admirer💜💜💜💜

His son's story is mine. Family all around, but I faked it till I couldn't fake it anymore. The strong ones need the same care even though we don't seem like we do. Thank you for sharing this story.

Karamo just exudes loveeee ❤ his baby boy is blessed to have his dad!

Side note ; i just LOVE how fly & clean karamo always looks 😍😍😍✨✨❤️

Sad! I almost died of alcohol poisoning before COVID. I woke up in the hospital and the nurse told me they found my body on a busy street. All my belongings were stolen from me too! She said Lucky got to me on time or I'd be dead 😢❤ It took me years to overcome alcohol abuse (binge drinking). People forget alcohol is a drug too!!! Ive been sober for several months 👏

The way he looks at his dad is so beautiful!❤

Karamo is such a breath of fresh air! To see a Black parent talk to their child in such loving, non-judgmental and affirming ways, and to not be advocating for child abuse when a child screws up, I LOVE IT. The love and positivity Karamo brings as a person is so beautiful. I wish that was more common.

This is a very good show. Why isn't it on a major network like NBC or ABC

Jason is such a wonderful young man! This is an eye opener. As parents, some of us essentially break our necks for our families but someone can fall by the wayside.

That mother is blaming other people for her son’s addiction. Hold him accountable. I know she doesn’t want to let him go because she thinks if she does, he’ll die in the street. It’s hard as a mother but she’s not helping him at all.

Addiction is a very scary disease that can effect any family!! It takes the addict to truly feel the need to change for themselves. Such a great episode 👏

The fact Karamo can relate to so many people because he experience life himself. Make his show sooo much more real.

That's awesome..just hearing him referring to his son as Daddy baby..that is deep..that's so much love

You and Judge Lynn Toler got me in a chokehold😭 I loooove learning something from a show. I got three babies to look out for and I’m trying to make my kids father and me the best we can be! Thank you for this! Something I’ll forever keep In mind for own babies

I have suffered from depression since I was probably 8 years old, nearly 40 years later, I understand a little more how to ride the ups and downs. I can totally relate to Karamo's son in pretending that everything is OK when it's not. Especially to a parent whom you want to protect. Also, addiction occurs in sooo many families. Even when you are aware of it, you can't always avoid a tragic end. My brother was an alcoholic and addict who eventually died of an overdose. It broke me. Thank you, Karamo, for being so open! ❤

Karamo and King Jason👑 This episode touched home for me in a Huge way. I wasn't so lucky to catch my only son (24 yrs old) who passed away in my home while I was 2 room's away asleep. I had no idea that he was using oxycodone at the time. He used it maybe 2 year's prior and he got clean. Until that day my youngest, 15 yr old daughter woke me up to say he wouldn't respond to her and he looked like something was wrong. I went to check on him and he was cold and already deceased. I blamed myself for so long, wishing I had heard him fall or anything that could have saved him. So, with that being said, I pray that anyone reading this to check on your love one. Find out if they are struggling with addiction or anything else before it's to late. I don't want anyone to feel the pain that I feel daily of missing my "Sun". Rest in peace my Anthony Ray Jenkin's Jr.😢☹️😢 😇💔 Jason please stay strong King 👑❤️ Karamo, you deserve an award for this show, it's absolutely AMAZING. I love you and thank you 👑🙌🏾❤️

Karamo is such a stand up guy!! ❤️ His son is a strong young man. God bless them.

I don’t know who this can help,but I pray it does. My dad was an alcoholic, but didn’t do drugs. My parents had 7 kids. All of them except me were alcoholics and on drugs. They were all married and ran the same race, drugs and alcohol. My mom tried so hard to fix them until it killed her, my mom was only 52 when she passed away, until this day I feel they robbed me of her. Me and my oldest sister are the only one left and she’s on her death bed,because all the drugs and alcohol she did has come back to bite her. I’m the baby and growing up I tried to get them to get help, and they never listen to me,I had to walk away to save me. I broke the cycle because I never wanted to go threw this. I never drank or did drugs and still don’t. I said all that to say this. I have no one left, my parents are gone and so are my siblings because of drugs and alcohol. They are dead. I had to raise myself. It’s only me and my sister,but now she’s dying. When is enough. Listen get help,if you have a problem. Don’t end up like me alone. I’m 51 years old and have 3 son’s and pray I never have to go through this. PLEASE GET HELP. SAVE YOURSELF. TRUST WHEN I SAY THE PAIN IS UNBEARABLE.

Hey daddy’s baby… what a bond 😢💙

I never heard of Karamo before, until I stumbled across this channel yesterday. What a lovely, kind, brave man, he is.

Glad to hear Karamo's son is clean and doing better. I have always loved seeing Karamo's relationship with his sons. Really inspiring. I really liked the advice he gave this mom. Its is tough to let go of your child but helping them self destruct (even passively) could be deadly. He has to come to terms with his addiction before he will ever want to change.

As someone who has struggled with drugs I am a parent now and my kids have never seen me like that I got clean 13 years ago and my kids have been lucky enough not to see me under the influence and I pray they never learn stuff like that and I pray they feel comfortable talking to me about their problems

The son is just nodding his head when his mom said “ we can talk when you ready to get help” because he knows that as soon as they leave life will continue as it was before

Karamo, I have experienced addiction first hand. My fiancee died back in 2020, before the pandemic started March 12,2020. I never saw any signs. We did not live together. We talked everyday, when we did not talk that Saturday, I chalked it up to him working hard and did not want to be disturbed. When the knock came on my front door, I knew something was wrong. When I got the news, I blamed myself because, I did not see the signs. It has been 3 years and I still beat myself up, because I missed it. I do not know how to forgive myself. I am a 54 year old woman. This was a great story between you and your son. I applaud yall for sharing.

Karamo was very lucky, when I walked in my sons room 2 years ago, he was already dead.

Looovvveee how real Karumo is with his thoughts and doing. A very vulnerable story worth sharing 😢. I pray it continues to help his family and others. 🙏🏾

This one hits home for me. Next Month I will be celebrating 20 years without drugs and alcohol. My father took me to rehab and he was there for me and he a chance to see me clean and sober. I lost everything like his son and the most important thing like his son was myself. Thanks to You and Your Son For Sharing This.

I can totally relate to him when he says that he can give the advice all day long to other people but when it’s him and his own situation he doesn’t know what to do. I’m a nurse and I’m the same way.

Breaks my heart. So happy Jason is sober and you’re both healing.

Some of these children come from loving supportive homes and they still choose this path. As parents sometimes we feel guilty for every little mistake we ever made regarding our kids. It’s important for parents to not blame themselves, we all have trauma it’s life and we all have choices on how to deal with our trauma. The craziest thing I’ve witnessed is most addictions start from prescribed opioids and alcohol. This is sad

So very proud of you Jason. Karma, thanks for being just so open and for sharing your truth .

I absolutely love your transparency!! I was an addict that nobody cared about. I applaud you for being so helpful and caring.

The bravery!!! Karamo has definitely gained my respect over any other healer I thought I admired

I have started watching this show a almost a week ago. I love it, Karamo is a lovely, respectful and empathetic host.

I was an addict for years off and on like a roller coaster so I can understand. I have been clean now for 2 1/2 years. I love you, Karam and your boys beautiful

A family member knowing their family having an addiction is stressful.

At first I wasn't interested in watching his show until one day I decided to check him out and I actually like his shows

I love this guy here This the realest guest host ever I don't know Maury nor Jerry

My son is addicted to drugs and go in and out of the behavior center at the hospital. He is homeless, staying in an abandoned home. He receives 100% disability and on Medicare or Medicaid. He called the entire family begging to go into rehab, when he called me I took action. And found out most rehab doesn't accept his insurance. He needs long term care. It hurt me when I received that phone call to tell him that there's no facility that accepts his insurance. To date, he still in the streets and it's sad that Charlotte, NC , Mecklenburg County Government doesn't have programs for individuals like my son. The fear I have is getting that knock on the door that they found my son dead.

The care, courage, bravery and heroism it takes for his Son to come forth and share his story, is just amazing. I hope he knows how many lives he's changing. Karamo crying , made me cry, but he's so real. A real Man

I'm happy that Jason Brown is now living his best life. 🙂 It was sad to see Karamo cry over what nearly happened which was the near death of his son. 🙁

Healings to anyone who's struggling with battles seen and unseen. 🙏🏽❤️

Every family in America is going through something. I applaud you Karamo and your son for sharing your story about Drug Addiction .. I felt your pain, the tears I couldn’t control . But you were there and you saved your son’s life. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Thank God that you have that father son relationship to be there through the good times and bad. Keep praying 🙏🏾 stay strong and God Bless You Both

I know this is months later but I would like to say thank you for being transparent and vulnerable. My only sister/sibling committed suicide on August 3rd 2023 and I've been trying to gain a understanding. It was due to addictions and trusting the wrong people.

I am so happy he found his son in time. He is a great man and great a great father for sure. I am glad his son is clean now.

I really like Karamo he has a great personality

I commend you @Karamo. So many suffer from addiction. Addiction is a real problem in the WORLD not many are facing, including myself 💔

This story made me cry because I was depressed for 5 yrs and no one knew not even my mom I hid it well but behind closed doors I was a wreck crying everyday I tried to slit my wrist 2 times I then tried to take a whole bottle of pysch meds I was already drinking and smoking weed then tried mollies I wanted to do anything to rid of the pain I wanted to go to sleep and never wake up I still battle depression but iam in a much better place

Cole is bone chillingly frightening.

This is why I love Karamo and his show! No matter how many degrees or experiences you may have,we are still human, and he makes sure that we never forget that❤.

My house hold is like this. I love that my kids are open and honest. They will never be in trouble with me if they just be open. I love this. Good luck with your journey and great job on what you’ve accomplished!!!

What an awesome father, just thinking if the world had more father's like this where we would be today! Sharing real problems no matter what is key, sometimes you have to reveal your story to help others.

Karamo is such an inspiration

This touched me to my core….the vulnerability of these 2 men is absolutely beautiful!

There are people all over the world that are struggeling with addiction but cant afford rehab

Those drugs were the spirit of the enemy satan the destroyer. The enemy doesn't like family love and he was trying to destroy you all's love for one another, but GOD stepped in and saved your loved one's life; thanks to our HEAVENLY FATHER ABBA FATHER AMEN 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🔥😌

I Love You Karamo 💙👑 You have always been transparent ! I am so Happy for Your Son Jason, It takes Great Strength to stop using. I am clean and sober now myself after 20yrs of using heroin, it took an overdose for me to say to myself, ENOUGH !!! May The Most High God Continue to Bless Us All, Amen 🙏🏾👊🏾❤️❤️❤️

I wish I would have had a parent or anyone that would have called me out like this and wanted to help me this way! 15 years of drugs and drinking but all glory be to God I have 2 yrs and 4 months clean and sober! I finally got tired of that life and said I am done.

Jason is such a sweet guy happy you're doing well and can still gives advice that makes your parents proud 😢❤❤️🙏

Lord, I pray for those struggling with drug/alcohol addiction and their families. It isn't easy for anyone. The one thing I do know, most drug addicts wish they never did the drugs in the first place. You totally lose control of yourself.

My dad have never been a “dad” and me hearing karamo telling his son “daddy’s baby” just broke me .

Karamo is crying you are going to make me cry karamo 😭😔

I love you both for this vulnerable honesty on display! I, too, raised three daughters; now, ages 48, 46, and 44 within an open communication relationship. When they told the truth, they were not punished. We discussed the reasons that assisted my daughters to deviate from what was instilled as foundational to their development. Hence, I have honest daughters. I love your son's open honesty. What a releasing to assist others!!! I love your television show, and I pray for your continued success.

This is your testimony Karamo....praise God for his blessings on you and your sons😊

Just when I thought the episodes couldn’t get any better!! By far the best🙌🏽 I simply adore this episode 💪🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Karamo let the flamboyance out today!!!!😂 God Bless his family though, they have a fantastic relationship 🙏🏽

Its refreshing to see that korom tv hoste is so real and has opened up about something so personal about his son and him self that takes alot of courage and is on a level with alot of people who have gone through simular circumstances and are going through at this moment simular circumstances .

Seeing Karamo cry is so painful.

Karamo thank you for really doing the show about addiction I was on drugs and my children basically had got me help I had turned myself in a rehab center now I am almost a year clean I have a 2 year old. Now I am in a sober living program for women substance abuse with children is a 2-year program and I'm glad I just got help for myself because I am a single mother with a learning disability... But now I'm going to school to get my high school diploma 😊.

I just wanted to thank you for allowing me to see your realness. I thank your son for sharing his testimony. I understand what you endured, because I endured the same. My partner was drugs plus suicide. It really helped me to not fault myself because I did that I couldn't help the situation. I really wish I could talk to you, because you are so in tune of others thanks. ❤

First of all you look like ur son's brother! Second, I'm so proud of you. You deserve as much success (or more) as your counterparts from your hit show. I've seen them in commercials and all types of successful endeavors

Karamo is such a sweet man!

Thank you for showing a father who truly loves and care for his son's life ❤️ Karamo you are so sweet down to earth just being your authentic self❤😊

Karamo I really appreciate your sincerity and I gotta say I love the way you are and I'm not a talk show watcher but you have brought it back to were we can talk and understand each other in clean consciences.

Wish my brother would admit it Imagine losing your mom, then your brother falls into addiction, gets better, then relapses All this as a kid But I'm not looking for pity just sharing. He will heal

Aweeee JESUS ty for Jason ! The love of a caring father

Love this episode! Thanks so much Karamo for your honesty and vulnerability with us. I too came from a household of addiction. My dad was on drugs for a long time causing my mom and him to divorce. My mom went through so much trying to help him and wished he would get off drugs. Unfortunately, his saving grace was either go to jail or go to rehab. He thankfully got clean and stayed clean for over 20 years until his passing. Addiction takes such a toll on families especially our community and I am glad that Karamo's son is clean, healthy and I wish him continued blessings on his sobriety as my dad always reminded me it was sometimes a struggle to stay clean (in addition to not drinking) because of the stresses of the world. Crazy how he sounds just like his dad. Now the 2nd segment the mom is an enabler. I know it has to be hard seeing your child have an addiction but the sad thing is the stress she is putting on herself will put her in the grave before him. Unfortunately, she has to put her son out. He is in clear denial, he needs rehab and you cannot be in a relationship with someone who is an addict themselves. Everything out his mouth is a debate and an excuse which shows he is not ready.

Thank you for sharing your story. Your son will be ok with your love& support ❤️💜💙

I really enjoy and admire Karamo and his show I wish him much success and happiness he's SOOOOO good at what he does .... Hopefully he's renewed for many more seasons 😉

Thank you so much for being vulnerable and allowing your fans and audience to be there for you and listen to your story and allowing us to love on you and your family.

I love how you are so vulnerable and genuine to everyone..❤❤ I’ve enjoyed you show from day 1

Karamo, you have such a God given gift to talk to people in a way that is both tough but loving at the same time. They truly stop and listen to what you say. You are changing lives and God Bless your son. My boyfriend just lost his brother last week to an infection from years of drug use. He keeps asking what could have been done differently but I tell him like you say. "Every choice he made was his own." A hard hard truth to swallow.

Thank you for your vulnerability, transparency and willingness to just be human. We needed to see this. God bless you

I love you Karamo, I lost my brother to addiction in 2022 it changed my life, but thank you for being open to us and being as amazing as you are, you're always giving everyone the best of you to uplift them so to uplift you in return I want to tell you to continue on your show because we can relate and you matter❤

This shows that no matter who you are you can suffer the same pain that ordinary people suffer Thank you for your honest vulnerability xx

Thank you Jesus for this testimony and for sharing. I been in this situation with my own mother when I was in the 5th grade and the fear still haunts me. I can still hear me screaming...but thank God🙏and I believe also in the same parenting system...Im open and honest with my son's too

Karamo!! Your honesty sharing yall testimony is everything! Thanks for keeping it 100 and letting us know that you know about a life challenge. All the best to you and your family. Jason is a "honey" and i hope he finds faith, good health, love, happiness and success.

Than you so much for sharing. Went through some of this with siblings 😢. Thank God you're both great now. God bless you

This is so genuine. Love that he's sharing a vulnerable moment.

This is so inspirational and I admired your openness, kindness, love and truth.

Karamo you have changed my life completely!!Thank you!! Wayne Sanders

Mercy, this is so special. You don't need to applogize, you ate human and honest. God bless you for sharing all this and you are vulnerable lile all of us. I am glad that you are both healing. God bless you ❤❤

As much as you ask beg plea keep pushing get upset so they can get the help they need even though it’s out of love They will continue to until they are sick and tired hit rock bottom and afraid to lose their cause of addiction. They must want it for themselves not mother sister uncle cousin brother. But when they are ready.

Love this. Glad I stumbled on this show.

I felt that when she turned away from her son.

Wow! Thanks for sharing 🙏 And congratulations on your recovery, continued happiness 🥰
