The thing I love most about this channel is the fact that it allows people who have so many problems to released to become free if only for a moment we all need someone to talk to in this channel is there Outlet at the same time it allows us the Watchers to see the other side and hopefully get a better understanding of situations
As much as some may want to dislike Louis for his past decisions, the fact of the matter is this is REAL LIFE. Not a movie with a script and a happy ending. This is his life and some of the things he's had to live with and by the grace of God he's finally given himself permission to share and release. Can you imagine how incredibly hard some of this stuff is to even admit out loud to yourself let alone millions of people on the internet, some of whom will get to look you in your face on the street or on the bus after you've pretty much bared your soul? There are things I don't even feel comfortable writing in my diary and I live alone. But that's how shame works; it holds you hostage, unable to heal or grow. Louis is a human being and by design like us all, he is flawed. Tuck away your judgment, remove your biases and take your rose colored glasses off. This too can be and IS real life for many people and they too have a voice worth being shared. Life is not black and white. Louis is an example of that.
I was a dope fiend for most of my life. I was a junky and an alcoholic. I never did anything even remotely close to the things Louis describes in this. The idea that being a dope fiend is responsible for drugging and taking advantage of a 14 year old girl? Come on man. Louis has many many more problems than just being a drug addict.
@@julybutterflyNot great that is it. Love abit of Louis though and his verging on offensively honest stories. We all have dark stories and experiences we hope never get found out or see the light of day. He tells his to the world. Gotta respect that.
Anyone else drink alone and watch these episodes? Fine line between this and that. Much love to that man. I hope he get's it all together and prospers.
Something is wrong with Louis he is gonna do what he wants to do sober or not but being under the influence makes him feel less guilty something he can blame his wrong doings on
Life has taught me that there are 2 types of addicts. Ones that will steal from their family, rape kids etc. and ones that don’t bring any harm to anyone, just themselves. His actions have nothing to do with him being an addict, he’s just a bad person🤷🏾♀️. He knew when he gave that little girl that hit that she was a little girl. Those actions are inexcusable!
@@aesop4024 You're correct. But there is no excuse for the behavior of Louis. Sorry, he knew from the beginning that was a 14 year old girl, and he had his eyes on her from the time he met her. That's why he got her high. He knew she wouldn't be able to handle it, and it would cause feelings that she may have not understood. He took advantage of a child that was probably angry at her mom, for working too much. It excited him when the mother asked for him to watch her daughter. Wondering the mental capacity of the mother for her to be attracted to a person that admittedly his addictions and behavior as well as knowing him from his videos.
@@Chunkyl0ve8 He says it through all of his videos. He uses the excuse "once he gets high" all bets are off. He follows his sexual desires. So perhaps you should go somewhere and learn how to listen a little better.
@@gailmendez5465 he's just stating once he gets high he'll do whatever. If he was using it as an excuse he'd be trying to convince people it was okay bc he was high. Which he says all the time that what he does isn't right. An excuse is to justify something right? He's not trying to justify his actions so how is it an excuse and not just a fact of what he does
Real Eyes Realize Real Lies. The clarity of past wrongs and the hurt you inflicted on others is what will be your healing Grace. When you open your eyes and realize your lies are what shamed you and everyone who had the audacity to trust and love you, you can't help but heal. Internally and externally you can change your future. It's a long road, but you have potential to be a good human and help others instead of focusing on what your demons have stolen from you. Your past does not need to repeat itself in your future. Stay strong and do right by people. And do it sober.
Yes in rehab there were about 30 of us women and my counselor said only one of Y'all will stay clean....I stayed clean for almost 4 yrs then relapsed..Im now going on 2 yrs clean! Keep going❤
Been wondering where he was for a moment. Louie is my favorite guest on this channel. Something about his realness that I find fascinating and terrifyingly human. Thanks for talking to us again Louie.
Yes I agree I've been wondering where he been also he had became my favorite on the show too we glad he back praise the Lord that he still amongst the living ❤️
He's right about not wanting to see your family because you've run out of lies. I went through that where I had a good job making $700 a week and somehow had to borrow money to pay my rent and my utilities kept getting shut off. He is 100% correct it will never start getting better until you admit you are powerless to your addictions. This guy is truly an inspiration to all of us addicts.
An inspiration??? **** you! Get abused by someone like him and then call him an inspiration… look in the mirror and then ask yourself if he’s really an inspiration…
@@campinnfishin963 few people have the ability to introspect on their flaws. fewer have the ability to admit and share those transgressions. he isn't here basking in glory he is laying things of his chest and is disgusted with what he did. the ability to take ownership and admit who you are is admirable. nobody said I love his sexual deviance, drug decency and addiction.
Man is very lucky to be alive considering all the pedophilia in his stories. Addiction only brings out what is in you. You can't just address the addiction and not the underlying penchant that goes with it. Address the trauma, and you'll have a leg up on addiction.
The man is mentally a child. My Mother was molested and she froze at that age, She even talks like a little girl. So does Louis, He talks about things like I did when I was young and honestly it's hard not to like him.
ummm he’s literally a child molestor and an abuser 😐 that’s not excuse. there’s (unfortunately) many people who were abused as children and don’t abuse children when they get older.
@@k_roc200-32 honestly, that’s no excuse to molest or sexually violate ANYONE! Everyone has some sort of sad sob story (I’ve been through plenty of crap) and that doesn’t mean that it’s a reason for predators to blame their vile behavior on their trauma. People these days seem to have a major victim complex which they use to excuse unforgivable behavior
This man takes no responsibility for his actions ,just blames drugs and alcohol. Having sexual relations with a 14 year old is inexcusable. Especially when you have done it multiple times. This man shouldn't be on the street, he deserves jail time.
ABSOLUTELY! Louis and his fans on here share the same brain cell apparently. I wonder if they'd compliment and praise him if they were one of his victims. People on here very rarely consider the victims, because they see him as a victim. They just gloss over whoever he hurt as if they don't matter. Louis matters, but not his victims? People are strange. That's the nicest thing I can say about them without going off.
@@minigirl6379 I agree totally. One of the saddest aspects of abuse is that so many abused people end up becoming abusers themselves. This needs much more attention, and we need to bring all of this into the light. There should be some kind of justice with this person, but we also need to ensure that people can continue to talk about this, rather than continue to hide it and never reach closure for the abused.
I use to really like Louis. He was one of my favorites here and while I still think he's a great storyteller, these situations where he talks about sex with minors are quite disturbing. I wonder what others think about him. His family, friends, ex-friends and victims. It would be very interesting to hear what they have to say.
@@yagirlafter5084 that’s what your crackhead mom and alcoholic dad said to you and Luis but don’t believe that you both are worthy and will make it in life
A Definition of insanity Doing the same thing expecting a different result. We do this SO much in our addictions. We spend so much time trying to find A way to use and still live a normal life. I'm 40 years old and just now realizing it will ALWAYS ruin me.
Hi Candice. In my opinion one thing to avoid "spending much time" (without much results) is to set some deadlines. My life had been stuck for too many years because of addictions (not drug nor alcohol but serious gambling, wich is the typical "Doing the same thing expecting a different result" occupation that you stated. I worked on myself and figure out I was not able to plan anything for myself (or for two) for the future, no projection, no project, stuck in the moment thinking about the next horse race, or the next basketball game to bet on while working a lot in a job I (now) barely like...I just put a date in the future - 30 september 2022, will try to stay "sober" and work on myself and find a new professional path. I am confident that if I succeed, nice things will come on the way with this turnaround. Bless you
His depiction of the Tasmanian devil was so on point he is so in tune to what his addiction does to his life but per the title he is deep in Powerlessness😔
Exactly how I feel with my oxy addiction, I am a little over a year into my addiction I started pretty much on my 18th birthday and I have been spending every dime on it sense. And I've heard it all. I know it's not worth it. I barely even get high. I have to do so much to get relief it's ridiculously not worth it but yet I'll still spend as much money on it as I can. And I know what road I'm going down. Homeless and a heroin addict. And tbh if I could get some heroin rn I would. It's horrible I wish I was stronger but I am weak.
@@tantheman3359 just came across your comment, I remember when I was one year into my addiction and my only advice is get yourself into a methadone or Suboxone program ASAP. Help yourself before you look up and 5 or even 10 years have passed and you have nothing to show for it. Your 20s are some of the best years of your life and I ONLY WISH I could have spent them clear minded and not spending every last dollar with the dope man or pill lady. MAT programs really work and you won’t be sick until you have the strength and honestly if you work the program right and stick to it til the end you will hardly get sick at all. I hope you have a good day and take care of yourself you are still so young you have the world in your hands 💙
@@freener thank you it makes it a lot easier knowing other people have been in position. it's up to yourself to want to change and I am sick of this shit let me tell you what I want to have a fucking bank account that has more than a grand in it!
Yes!! Good to see one of my favorites back! No matter how u feel about Louis, he always gonna give it to u raw and real. Hope he continues to come back on.
Wow thank you so much Louis and mark...Mark for taking the time to be interested in people who are often overlooked and downgraded and giving them a voice. And thank you Luis for being so open and honest and speaking about all of this stuff really really helps me because I'm trying to start a RU-vid channel and I'm really scared but you're showing me that people can talk about the hard things they've experienced...
So sorry to hear this mama! Make sure you take care of yourself. Me ex-husband wasn’t able to overcome his battle with addiction, and I remember the point I realized that if I didn’t starting putting as much energy into self-care as I was putting into caring for him, I would die. Keeping you and your daughter in my prayers mama. ❤️🙏🏼
When you share your story you help me, and I sometimes cry too - stay strong Louis you are shining a great light on a subject that is far to often kept in the dark .. your a beautiful person xox
@@ruthadelbai7388 I meant that in a sarcastic way. I'm 4 years 5 months sober from booze. Drug use in my teens and throughout my life screwed up my memory.
As a long time Shamanic Practitioner and teacher, I'm trained to see people at their very best and most healed, even when they can't see it themselves- and i have been on that side myself a million times as well so i toootally get it- I can see just how powerful he could be and how much he would be able to help others. I hope soon he will be able to as well. Its never too late 🙏
Discussing excuse of a man. No excuse for drugging and violating a minor. How are people overlooking this?!? Drug addiction or not. He should be in jail or a mental institution if those even exist anymore.
Exactly it's this liberal minded world let people who do horrific things but use there addiction as an excuse. All actions have consequences and for what this guy has done big consequences jail or death this man is disturbed and should not be allowed out in society plane and simple.
Absolutely! 99% of people would never open up and and put all their dirty laundry out for the whole to see like the did. It's hard to not respect that kind of honesty!
Addiction isn’t always the same as a PG lifetime movie or Netflix short series, it’s real life. This man kept it all the way honest and transparent, I’m not saying don’t judge/have an opinion because of the gravity of his actions. I’m saying don’t just assume he’s any different or (better or worse) than the addicts you sympathize with just because his story is more explicit than theirs. His mistakes don’t make the actual underlying issue any less valid or him any less of a human being struggling with powerful demons. The truth is simply the truth, nothing more or less & our subjective evaluation of the truth should be used to create more conversations that allow us to be more empathetic, understanding, and capable of finding solutions to the issues we face in society as a whole. Attacking and persecuting any human being’s honest truth will only create a society in which more people lie and become consumed by the truths they hide, thus creating greater negative events that more people become the victims of.
Once I realized this is the same dude who frequently got put out with all of his belongings in garbage bags, I knew I had to listen to some more of his story.
Good luck Luis! Looking forward to more videos with you! Never give up hope and continue fighting! Always be honest to yourself and others. Forgive yourself and move past the shame and guilt.
He inspired me I really appreciate these stories a place for people to share their truths Its powerful I share this channel with others Makes me cry alot But this is needed for all of us💙
You’re right I agree however there’s a lot of people who suffer debilitating chronic pains will need medication to do easy basic task like brushing their teeth and shower . To each their own
Mark, I just wanted to say thank you for your continual support and unwavering effort to provide an opportunity for those who are not often acknowledged or understood to gain some incredibly powerful life insight by slowing down, showing up, and take the time to genuinely and compassionately listen. I think you have saved many of lives without even knowing it or taking credit for it. 💚
Agreed. He's a self absorbed narcissist. He admits to raping a 14 year old girl, then says he did something worse than that. I was expecting him to say he beat a Nun to death with a dead baby. Then he comes out with the BS of ditching his best friends wedding and spending his $350..I was like, is he f'ing kidding?
I resonate with this dude so much. I've felt that level of depravity and powerlessness. I didn't know it when I was in it, though. I hope he finds relief soon.
Wild pride…I have a hard time respecting him since he told the story about his relationship with a woman and her teenage daughter. He drugged and manipulated a young girl into sleeping with him. Twisted story…unless it was a lie. Meh…
I've listened to other Louis stories. He was really affected by babysitter abuse when he was young. He has crazy stories. But wow that best friend story broke my heart too
Shame is not always a bad thing - if it changes bad behavior. I get the feeling Louis is getting it off his chest to make himself feel better, but has no intention of changing. He also takes no accountability. I hope he makes positive changes in his life.
@@Anangelfromabove I have heard of the freedom model but I haven’t read the book , I’m definitely going to read it now . Your reply resonated with me because I found what works for me and it wasn’t the 12 steps and going to meeting. I did that and went through all the steps but never really felt like it was my path it was actually doing more harm then good . I took what worked for me from the steps /meditation/spirituality/helping others / I also use the herb kratom and I know all the crazy debates over it but I use kratom, kratom doesn’t use me My life has continued to get better . I would love to see mark do a interview with someone that has healed from it . Also I believe in the laws of attraction/karma .. I really good book to read is the greatest salesman in the world, it’s nothing to do with sales but the wisdom from the ten ancient scrolls are amazing, it’s a quick read and I’m sure a lot will resonate with you ! Thank you for replying! I’m going to read the freedom model now 🙌🏻have a wonderful Sunday Janelle
@@jasonbell5129 I am so happy that you have found what works for you! Wow everything you said here is so interesting because I too have used kratom and I know a lot about it and that it is controversial. People are usually on one side or the other and not allowing it to just be what it is. I also have the ten scrolls in my binder that I use for my morning routines, isn’t that funny? Haven’t read the book though. I think that’s kind of like the law of attraction that we connected through a RU-vid comment. We are similar in a lot of ways. You’re pretty awesome man. Keep doing what is working for you!!! 💗 Much Love
Brother Louis stay strong and fight the ADDICTION you can beat this demon your very strong and brave to be here your STORYS are helping many ppl I can relate man I love you wish we could talk my prayers and love are yours my brother ❤️👍🏿❤️
Not being or feeling alone,feeling and being loved, letting out and letting go of buried demons and past trama, finally being able to be truthful to others and yourself and one of the most important feeling and having purpose, wondering the world hopeless with no sense of purpose makes you start questioning reason even for existing and can really bring a person down ,it made me smile to see his smile when he spoke of finding his purpose or one of them, appreciate his honesty and am sure it's helping more people 😊
I appreciate his honesty too,he sounds genuine Alot of addicts play all around their addiction and drug use thinking they are stronger than drugs but they are not, at least Louis is honest with himself and can talk about it freely so that other people can feel a sense that they can honesty look for the help they need so that they can loosen the grip of drug addiction but when someone is down playing their own addiction, how can you possibly help someone gain confidence that they can kick their own addiction PHONY!
Unfortunately he is still using. I can see it. The scratching the itching the confessions. Addicts start using guilt as an excuse to use again. It’s a messed up cycle 😔
You know what's fucked up, he's expelling his ghosts for the shit he has done, but the ghosts should never leave. He thinks we're the priests, and he's in the concessionary, and it's not like that.
We are NOT all proud of him. I would be proud of him if he were making amends for his poor behavior instead of excusing his behavior. Don't get me wrong, I am all to familiar with the idea of being powerless to addiction. But it only helps if you use that thought to propell yourself to make better choices
This one really hit home. I lost every good thing I ever had just like he said (good job, nice truck, and an amazing woman) due to alcohol. I drank like a fish for years with no problem then one night all those years of no issue drinking caught up to me!
@@paige9874well I'm still on the right side of the ground and breathing so I shouldn't complain too much but I've been more depressed since all that happened then I've ever been in my entire life and not a day goes by I don't think about everything that I had and still could have had I not been drinking so much!
Now start over and do it again. You can get it all back others have. Just keep working on that right path and you can do better than you had done before. I promise you that it is never to late to fix things in your life. We all have nothing to start with and the big question is what we do with that. Wishing you the best of luck friend. 💜😊
Luis we all love you and all we see is a human who has lived in interesting life and has even more interesting stories, none of us are perfect my friend but there are very few of us who will sit in front of a camera and tell the absolute truth, in a world full of lies Luis you are refreshing as can be!
If anything the ones who are ready to press him for his actions can now make a solid case against it . It’s not like Mark is saying “ oh yeah this man is great” that’s why it’s soft white underbelly. How many “good” are even recorded on this? Maybe one out of the hundreds are actually decent , most are fucked up in their own ways. That’s all I’m saying , it’s inexcusable what he has done , but so have the many other things people have done and then share it on here.
I hope he was lying about getting a 14 year old girl high and screwing her in an alley. Most everyone else here seems to be fine with that. I don't get it. What part of any of that is acceptable?
Well you help me today Lewis I'm in Orlando Florida and I appreciate what you said because now puts everything into perspective of why people do the things they do thank you for being clarifying everything God-bless you and you are important
Haha my dad used to say that about my brother. Love abit of Louis though and his verging on offensively honest stories. We all have dark stories and experiences we hope never get found out or see the light of day. He tells his to the world. Gotta respect that.
You sure like to judge people if you don’t like it then just go somewhere else okay you seem like a washed up person anyways who has never felt with drug or alcohol problems
Mark, interviewer, you have received multiple, serious confessions from this person that he has raped children. It it your responsibility to go to the police with these tapes. You have to. He will do it again given the opportunity. This is your duty. Report this man, with the taped confessions, or you will share in the guilt the next time he does this. I hope you understand this, and do not hide behind some sense of anonimity to further your channel. Consider, seriously, the next lost 13 yr old girl that happens to sit down next to this evil on the bus he rides. YOU HAVE TO. REPORT THIS.
⚘Funny that a lot of street people were very good looking in their younger years. Beautiful features. Wondering how much that plays into the troubles they fell into
More interviews like this pls. I know everyone shares their story differently but I relate to this story or at least how aware he is of his addiction and the hold it has on him. I've learned in recovery that someone's story could save another person life, you won't believe the impact of someone sharing their story can have on another addict. And it is true. I pray I find sobriety again.
Wondering if 'pushing this shyte down' is reason for his use of alcohol and whatever else to cover up the pain, humiliation and guilt he's carried around all these years. He's just another suffering soul that needs compassion, assistance in getting clean and sober and some prayers. I have so much hope for you! Thank you for helping Louis, you are a hell of a wonderful man, you just don't realize it because you keep using then lying, then feeling guilty, just a loop. It's just the side effects of alcohol and drugs. As long as you keep going round that loop, you don't have to think or be reminded. I have total faith you can change, if it's what you want. Many have walked the same steps, carried the same pain, but DECIDED they were worth more than what they were giving themselves! God bless you Louis. AA works! I know, I haven't had a drink in over 16 years. Best thing I ever did for myself.
One of my favorite as for as honesty and storytelling but his action are inexcusable but I’m glad he see some positive in his life and Mark gives him that outlet. Maybe he can conquer is addiction and ask for forgiveness even though those he tore those lives
Drug addiction is crazy. When your addicted and you feel like you need drugs it's like being underwater and needing to take a breath. You will almost do anything to get them. Mostly Opiates are like that because your sick and you just wanna feel normal again. Terrible way to live.
