Your testimony here is great and positive and encouraging. Thank you for presenting this.😊
I am waiting to hear back on getting hired to be a mental health technician. I am very excited... but very nervous.
This helped..
Is a joke, especially in bradley, county.
Hello, I am Mizanur Rahman from Bangladesh. I am a profession CZcams Expert. I have been follow your channel for a long time. I think Your video is really awesome and thumbnail is also attractive but views, engegment is Very low. If YOU permission me I provide info about your channel
Wondeful informative video! "We do not help dead people recover" 😅 true words, sis!
Thank you for this informative video! I have a few questions... I love that the local communities are able to say specifically what they see is needed! Can you give a few examples of what was requested? Not an exhaustive list, just examples like were given for what was NOT requested. Is there a program like Deaths Avoided With Naloxone (DAWN) which provides rescue kits in the event of an overdose including instructions and materials to the public? Do we (as a TN native) have a 'good samaritan' law in place that provides limited immunity to anyone calling 911 because of an opioid overdose? I'm very much looking forward to see how this money is utilized in the ongoing effort to fight and prevent the worsening of this horrible situation TN is facing at the moment. (Edited for spelling & punctuation)
Y’all are the best!
I just finished Nic’s book, and I’m just so happy to see him doing for the most part alright. The struggle never stops, but he’s come a very long way. Hope he’s proud of himself. I don’t even know the guy personally, and I’m proud of him.
Unfortunately, he exaggerated and embellished a substantial portion of the material in his book. DeQuincey, Burroughs, Kiedis, Sixx, Burroughs, Jr., Trocchi, etc, etc. I hope that you follow. This kid is spoiled, narcissistic, delusional and sadly, he is attempting to be a halfassed 'Literary Outlaw.' Oh, he is also a rather strange looking cat. I have been addicted to high potency opioid analgesics for most of the past 32 years, including my current treatment with methadone. There is no way I'd bother writing about it, since the same story, rewritten with different characters, different drugs, different hustling/ copping routines has been beat to death!😂 Now, the book may indeed be fascinating to the uninitiated 😉. I respect one's right to read whatever one chooses. As a long term addict, though, there's nothing new in Beautiful Boy's prosaic pile of rubbish, 'Tweak.' Remembet that Billy Burroughs, Jr. wrote 'Speed' in 1970!!

It was used to transport large animals to medical help and care but was never used on animals on a daily basis. Animals were treated for injuries or medical conditions and released back into the wild animals' habitations the human beings aren't even suppose to use it at all and definitely not on a daily basis big animals don't even use xylazine on daily basis
I am proud of you. Your story is beautiful. I believe in you.
Yessss...friend continue to give back to your clientele. You are making a great impact on others. Woot...Woot!!
Amen 🙏 Everyone has a different PATH
Growing up in the traditional Christian Church was a literal nightmare for me. At 67 I'm still working through the horrible feelings of guilt and shame around not being good enough.
This man is very intelligent. He’s learned so much and grown so much. I don’t even know him yet I’m so proud of him. Keep fighting the good fight, Nic ❤️

Way to go John! You're truly an inspiring individual keep up all your fantastic work! :)
I had not watched the movie because not only it opened wounds I didn’t want to open, but the actor looked almost exactly like my Son who did not make it. The fact that Nic has found a way to live life as we should, and not in prison, as drugs make people, gives me hope that was lost. God bless you Nic. May God Bless You. 🌸
Omg great job kaitlyn!
I'm proud of you
