I feel his pain. I've been deathly skinny and on a cocktail of drugs. I'm almost 4 years sober. I just wish Aaron got the chance.. rest in peace. Please take care of my friends up there in heaven. They'll give you unconditional love.
Hurts watching this. My father struggles heavily with drugs. I'm very lucky he's made it to 56 so far, but that's still not enough, i hope hes around for longer. Rest in Peace, Aaron. I know people struggle with addiction, but please, please seek help. Think of the people who love you, even through the bad days, because they're there. Aaron's left behind a child, a partner, family, friends... your pain exists, and so does theirs.
IKR. I mean, people should understand that addiction is not to be laughed at. It's a serious thing. Celebs like Lindsay Lohan and Robert Downey Jr. have both struggled with their respective addictions and the media mocked them for that. Society too. Again, addiction is a serious thing, it's not a comedy fodder. Period. BTW I'm glad I never did alcohol/drugs/smoking since my younger days. I'm a straight edge person.
Same here was raised running around in a van trying to find him with my struggling mother, see him use away his problems and it hurts to watch but makes the surrounding people aware of the negative effects unfortunately. But I hope both of our fathers find a clean path eventually
This is typical addict behavior. He’s telling everyone what they want to hear but you can tell there’s still a block. He’s got his guard up. Conceding to not being healthy but still making excuses. You’ve gotta be completely honest not just with others but yourself. He doesn’t seem like he’s hit bottom yet which scary when you look at his condition. He should get some real help off camera. And ppl should stop exploiting him.
sam neale She's not being a bitch for stating the obvious. There are many people who don't interrupt others that much despite feeling anxious and overwhelmed. It just boils down to poor manners when he's interrupting and talking over the doctors that much.
Samantha Zoma I have bipolar which comes with anxiety sometimes and if I’m on edge or agitated I act a bit like this guy, there’s no need to hate on him when he’s been so open about everything and is clearly seeking help, it’s not all down to “bad manners”, ex addicts also act a lot like this, I’m not one myself but I can’t speak for him. You come across really uptight
It's not to get high though. His reasons are mental health. Someone that is not well mentally takes those drugs to calm down enough to function. I feel bad for him and understand it.
I grew up as a 7 year old rocking to Aaron Carter on my portable CD player, now I’m 25 and am one and half years sober from heroin. Aarons struggles really humanize the man, and everything he says he stunningly relatable. I’ve been in his position.
An addict never changes till they hit their official rock bottom. The problem is that he has had stuff to always fall back on to make him feel better. People who are famous tend to seek external gratification and you can see him trying to get them to like him and believe him. As long as he has at least 1 connection to something that helps him feel good and distracts him from what he has really done to himself and others, he won't get better. Willpower only comes from inner peace with yourself and knowing yourself enough to be confident in your decisions to quit.
What's rock bottom? Some people's rock bottoms are different than others rock bottom. Recovery is more complex than hitting rock bottom, in my opinion.
I don’t ever watch these doctor shows but I actually have a lot of respect for the doctor on the right. He seems like he really cares and seems to have more insight into what’s going on in Aaron’s life and his mental state than Aaron does. What he said at the end was spot on.
As an addict in recovery for nearly 6 years, we never ever have control. Steps one, two, three : I can't, something bigger than me can, and I'll let it.
@@michelejordan4115 yes he was he was diagnosed with bi polar depression schofrenhic can't spell the word hecwas on meds for them all but stil took drugs
What's really sad is how sympathetic society is to celebrities with drug addiction just because they have money and fame. Meanwhile, non-famous poor drug addicts who can't afford prestigious doctors are labeled as homeless junkie trash. There are so many people struggling with addiction. Let's have the same amount of sympathy for all of them, regardless of fame or social status.
So profound and true. If your a celebrity your labelled as eccentric if your normal your just mad. Celebrities given sympathy because of exploitative parents whilst drug addicts ...have sexual abuse, foster care, never taken to school, so fell into criminal activity so unable to get a job so turned to drugs to cope with life
Seeing what he's going threw makes me really sad. I had a really bad year of gastric issues and mental health issues . They go hand in hand. I lost a ton of weight, I was also talking super fast , repetitive, hyper , depressive ,anxious. I ended up having gastritis treated as well as the anxiety. It was really tough but im now back to normal and healthy. Hope he can get healthy too.
You know what’s crazy , my 15 yr old son has severe adhd and speaks exactly like him. Tries to act like he has it together , tries to be the charmer , interrupts you when you talk , is all over the place .
I hope to God he gets healthy and stays healthy, mind , body and soul. He has been through so much since being a child and did not have a stable family. Every child star gets messed up. Please don t let this end badly
Rip Aaron, most people or actually every one I know suffering from addition or have been suffering are mostly very sensitive, to numb their fears, worries or depression, the thing is it doesn't solve anything it only makes it worse.
I hope he can relax. I’ve been there and I’m still losing my hair. Thinking too much, cannot stop. And the intestines are just to fast for me to keep a good healthy weight. Anxiety is awful
He doesn’t want help tons of ppl tried. let him live like this if he wants too. I’m 3 years sober. Pisses me off so much when ppl have everything and they just throw it away. Dude thinks he’s okay he’s bat shit crazy
He needs a padded room. He parades loaded guns around these days threatening anyone who disagrees with him. He’s still using only he’s much worse than back then.
He needs to face himself, he hides (there go the drugs) from himself...I would hide too if I'd raped/molested my sibling in my past. For Aaron, the sibling is now dead and ffs, having done what he did, I would do myself and everyone a favour and hurl myself off a skyscraper
@@zeuna seriously, you believe he was molested by his brother🤨 No. That's some shit he made up to stay relevant, gain sympathy, and try to remain a victim. Did his parent's spend (probably waste) alot of his money, definitely!! But he tries to continue and use that to not take responsibility for his choices SINCE that happened. Instead he just uses it as a catalyst to be a shit person and make everyone else the reason why he's a total waste of life! Edit: I could go on, but I 1 dont have the patience and 2 it doesn't/won't change anything. He's a total pos and it's a damn shame bcuz he COULD be just as or better than his brother, rather than remain in the shadow of him and keep making excuses for himself💯
Aaron seemed very sweet and the people on this show tried to help him multiple times. I just wish he had never gotten involved in drugs. He could have continued to be in movies and sing if he would have wanted to.
He's bipolar, for fuck's sake. Dude has mania, and he's trying to calm down with xanax, percocet, and weed. Think about it. "Drugs" in general don't make someone act like he is. He's self medicating for mental illness and he's completely manic.
You are an idiot. Look up dsm 5 mania !!! He’s not manic He’s got an addiction to benzodiazepines and opioids. He needs addiction center and psychotherapy. A lot of psychotherapy !!!
Maria Russell This dr is a GI dr and he kinda pissed me off. I’ve watched so so many of the videos about Aaron’s health and test and all this. Saw the endoscopy video. There’s proof of immune deficiency, weight loss and depression. He keeps saying the chicken or the egg. And I’m sure Aaron needs some emotional help, but he also needs to be tested for other autoimmune diseases that attack the digestive system. Eg: Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Hashimoto’s, etc... He looks like I did when I was finally diagnosed with Crohn’s at 18 years old. Years down the road I learned that it wasn’t just Crohn’s. I actually suffer from Autoimmune Systemic Response Syndrome which causes the Crohn’s as well as the possibility of several other autoimmune issues. I’m 46 and have been diagnosed with FIVE more illnesses, secondary to the AISRS. Aaron is exhibiting the same symptoms I did for so many years before being diagnosed. And I was told for 9 years it was psychosomatic & needed therapy. What they didn’t understand is the depression, anxiety, mood swings all settled down then eventually went away after getting the proper treatment for my disease. I still get depressed, but I know why. It’s not clinical depression. I almost died because they kept saying it was all “in my head” and caused by mental illness, but it was the other way around.
Ppl who've NEVER lived with serious, Chronic pain shouldn't talk about getting off of opiates. NOT giving pain meds when there's serious chronic pain only leads to depression and at the end, SUICIDE. Its called HARM REDUCTION. These types of meds need INTENSE MEDICAL SUPERVISION, EVERY DR NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT EVERY OTHER DR IS PRESCRIBING... if that requires a urine test weekly, than that's what it requires. It's sad to see YET ANOTHER talented person gone too soon.
and he just couldn't get it right. "Fools Gold" is an underrated poptrack. But besides that, he just seemed to argue with people online and lie constantly about the wealth and projects he was working on. The podcast he was on a year back or so, just totally wrecked it more. Found dead in his bathtub, I honestly hope he's at peace now. He was hurting so much. Rip Aaron
Guys let us pray for all the people in the world who suffered lime him. Luckily we are stronger enough than them. It is not easy to have and be on that situation. To withness a weakness of a person is too sad. Lets just pray for them.
his so honest I love it I feel bad his sister Lindsey got him on the drugs back in 2003 he didn't start the drugs until 2009 he very stron young man rest in peace aaron carter
Addiction doesn’t negotiate or discriminate. I’m grateful I found recovery a few years ago and have stuck around. I feel for him. The constant facade you have to keep up while you’re in active addiction is exhausting and soul crushing.
they should give him mild antipsychotic and a in house treatment. they need to find the primary issue. these are secondary issues will continue to arise. in house they may be able to help him wean off the benzo and opiod. that will be the hardest. good luck my friend and God bless.
Agree...an illness is actually a result of an inner turmoil known as stress...he needs to do meditations to calm himself...or if he believes in God, pray more often.
The Dr is right his mind is racing that’s why he keeps interrupting but he needs to go to rehab and get clean put some weight on or he’s gonna die at a young age
Yes sir action speaks louder than words but at the same time he has to be ready to take that step you can say im going to do this or that but if your not ready nothing or no one can do it for you. Been there I've been clean for 9 years THANKS TO GOD
It absolutely bothers me that people who get prescription opiates always try to justify their drug use. You can clearly tell how it's affecting their brain. My best friend is on all kinds of pills prescribed by the doctor and I see how much it affects her the way she dozes off all the time the way she talks gibberish most of the time but to her it's justified because it's from a doctor 🙁
