- These adults come from different parts of the country and are struggling with addiction in Philadelphia. They agree to share their insights and experiences with drug addiction.
This man was once a baby. A little boy with dreams and goals to be the best he could be. I hope this man becomes the man he always wanted to be. If anyone reading this is going through something similar, just know you're beautiful and capable to stop and getting better one day. I love you and believe in you
I wish it was that easy
@@Baroness666 I wish it were too hun. I've seen loved ones go through drug addiction and im still hoping they'll come back one day.
Thank you very much. I am in a difficult situation but its different than this. But I really appreciate it. Have a good one.
We need more people like you in this world! So many others are so quick to degrade, shame and judge! Many blessings your way ❤
indeed. he's someone's baby..at one time. he may be a brother , cuz, uncle, dad. he's a human being no different than you or I. he deserves a life. pray he is healed and blessed with a good life.♥️
I have 13 years clean, I was homeless, broke, using all day..I didn’t care about anything but my next fix. Today I’m a mom, a wife, I own a house, a car..I love my life and I wake up everyday proud of myself! ❤
🥰
That's awesome I was homeless too, been clean since September 2013 almost 10 years
WOW 🎉! CONGRATULATIONS !!!! YOUR AMAZING !
You probably had a sugar daddy or a guy to give u money and drugs. With a bed and heat. And if not 1 guy 2 or 3. I'm no stranger to the street life. All girls have a guy to take care of them as long as they prostitute themselves. It's easier for a woman period. You don't see any sugar mamas out there. Be proud you're clean but don't brag. Cuz sounds to me you had it easy and it was a quick yr or 2 and you had family who loved you and hope.
I wish you the best🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️
Mental health issues isn't a joke. Don't film people in their worst. It can happen to you too or perhaps someone you love.
Add: Getting clean doesn't just happen overnight, and fighting the withdrawal could take years. There needs to be ongoing support for patients who go through the process so they don't find themselves stuck again due to economic, financial, social, medical, etc. factors. One small hiccup and some are found using again. This is coming from a person who knew someone who had drinking issue due to her extreme depression brought on by a mental health disorder. Everyone chooses their own poison to numb the pain and in their worst, they can't tell right from wrong. On the flip side, there are people who start under peer pressure, which stems from their environment, company they lack or the company they have. It's a North American epidemic because the family system is compromised by many factors.
These people are fucked up in theyre head
Maybe videos like this will make teens think twice before doing drugs.
They have no right to record, but most drug addicts don’t have mental health issues! They just made bad decisions in life!!!
Hrs just showing u the state of this country. It coming for everyone. Not drugs but the fall of society. Kids today are doomed. Trans people indoctrinate our kids
. Theyre taking over. The dollar isnt worth shit. If we dont keep democrates out we will get overtaken. They blow money needlessly. Medicare pays for this bullshit sex change experiments. Has for the past serval years. And my 76 year old dad cant get his insulin because it went up to 500 a month becasue these mental patients get free surguries that just hide what really needs to be treated. Thr country is f**ked and there is no stopping it
I think it’s good to bring awareness to these issues. He isn’t mocking. He’s bringing the problem to light
Poor guy. As a mother this breaks my heart. These drugs are extremely dangerous and addictive. I hope he recovers 💕🙏🏾
Imagine someone recording you during the worst moments of your life…..
This guy has no idea he is being filmed. His brain is so addled he could barely tell you his name
This infuriates me! The person filming clearly has no respect for people, instead of sharing this on social media for clout, why didn’t they go and talk to this man? Ask him if he was ok? Ask if he needed help?
Addicts are people too, they have just found themselves upon hard times, the person filming has no idea about this person, he has a name! No one knows what kind of life this man may have had to land him here, more than likely a pretty tough one.
It would be nice for a change if people just put down their phones and offered an arm to those who are in clear need of support.
What people need to remember is that addiction isn’t prejudice it can come for anyone at anytime, it could be you! Why are humans so awful to other humans? Why do we think we’re more superior than addicts? Why do we think we have the moral high ground? Until you’ve walked a mile in this man’s shoes then you should not judge, and if you are to take anything from this exploitive video then remember just how lucky you are that you’re not in this man’s position, and if and when you can, think about how you can help to make the world a better place.
If you found this video in any way shape or form amusing then shame on you, I’m so glad that you or anyone you know haven’t ended up where this man is, how lucky you are!
I’m wishing this man all the best and if anyone knows who this man is or where he’s located please let me know, I want to reach my arm out, I have very little to offer in monetary terms but what I lack in cash I can make up with my time, and time spent is priceless, sometimes all these people need are someone to listen to them, and we’ll I have two working war to which I am very thankful for and I’m going to use them in how they were intended to be used and that’s to listen, listen without judgment and if I can help just one person by giving them the time of day then I know I’ve done my job as a human being!
There’s only one race, the human race 🙏🏻💕🏴 🏴
@@maymacbell3983 i agree that filming someone like this isnt exactly right. However, i‘m sure YOU won’t have the actual balls to go up to someone who is tweaking like this and ask if they need help. You never know how they might react, they might see you as danger and turn aggressive real quick. Not just that but you need to realize that these people have issues that regular people can‘t help them with. That is the job of a fully trained proffessional! Only they know how to handle these types of situations. Also, you cannot help someone who isn‘t willing to help themselves. Theres a good chance that someone who is this deep into addiction will pull you into their misery or just straight up use you for their benefit. So be careful with this idealistic way of thinking.
Unfortunately it's a choice he made to take the drug in the first place
The person filming didnt give him that shite he did.
On the 28th of this month I will be eight months clean from pain pills. It has literally been the hardest thing that I’ve ever had to do.
Great job Keep at it!! I’m currently 32 Days clean from prescription opioids and nicotine myself. Reading comments of people being clean for several months/years warms my heart since it’s one of the hardest habits to quit. I’m struggling with the mentality part but we will get through this together :)
@@Devil_Hunter57 hey man, you can do it! You can do it! Whatever you do man just do not go back to them. Dude, I had a prescription around me today and I never even thought about fucking doing it so think about that just don’t do them.
Good for you man! You’re not lying, it is hard as hell to quit. I have 15 months clean yesterday from a decade+ long opioid addiction. I broke my neck in 2010 and got dependent on pain pills. Then towards the end of 2012 they started cracking down on the opioid epidemic and my doctor cut off my prescription with no warning or taper. Within 6 months of that I was a full blown heroin addict. Within 6 months of that I overdosed for the first time.
Congratulations! I’m taking tramadol to help with my bulging discs and sciatica nerves. I want to stop and just deal with the pain, but I tried once and felt like dying. How long are the withdrawals?
Proud of you
Never use drugs to escape from emotionally pain or depression. Drugs won't solve your problems but it will only create greater problems in your life...
Good advice. Drugs make your problems infinitely worse, and you worse in every aspect of your life.
@@billj4525 😘 try TCM instead of drugs...
This is literally how people become addicts. They use a drug to help with physical or emotional pain. It works unfortunately too well. They realize that everytime they feel discomfort they can use a drug and it will make them better. Thats how addicts are born. Out of people not dealing with their issues.
Easy to say. Everyone can't deal with some parts of their life by other ways.. I'm part of them
@@souzikken I can say it's easy cos I never use drugs to escape my own pain. I never take short cut ways to deal with crisis in my life...if you got the money to buy drugs to numb all your emotionally, psychologically or mentally pain, why not use that money to make other things happen. Life is full of adventures, just bravely go through with it without harming your body.
This July 5th I'm 15 years clean from alcohol and drugs, it's the reason I'm still here to write this massage.
Please get help now, not everyone gets a second chance like I did fifteen years ago.
10 years free of a 25 year long heroin addiction today....this doesn't have to be how his story ends! Im rooting for you buddy...💔🙏
Never give up the fight!
Can I ask you if you drink?
Good work 👍
Proud of you!
Sooo proud of yu luv ❤
I was a firefighter. Once we came upon an unconscious woman, totally unresponsive. I thought she was in her 40s but she was only 26. She was an addict, a street-walker. She did not die that day, but was dead less than 2 years later. The heart-breaking thing was the police going through her purse. Wadded up $5 and $1, make up, old t-shirt, brush and a folded, creased photo of a beautiful little girl on her father's lap, Christmas tree in the background. Sad stuff.
This is the "bubonic plague" of Amerika.
Omg, that's heartbreaking!
sombie apocalypse it's happening ....
Why don't you people in the inner cities do something about it then? You let these people kill themselves instead of locking them in a cell where they can sober up and be cut off from roaming the streets where they'll just get more drugs. People like that just get passed by and ignored. I'd be calling the police on him for being strung out in public. That's the help they really need. Not babying and handholding.
I'm crying my eyes out. That's really heartbreaking....I'm not one who says that. Some try to hold on to a memory; times when they weren't a living nightmare. I remember the day I threw all my pictures (yeah I'm that old) in the dumpter. Even those who we wouldn't dream have those thoughts, they do.
Sad to think she just wanted the simplest thing that she probably realized at a point it wasn't worth trying to make that happen. I lived a similar existence, just dressed up a bit.
I always tell women if you're going to use your body, treat it like a temple. Take care of yourself, workout, charge a lot and get out. ....because I've seen it happen. Anything is possible.
Joe, if you read this , thank you for your Service. I wouldn't be alive today without 1st responders.
Currently battling alcohol addiction, but this breaks my heart so much more.
it's been two months since you posted this. update? i hope you're winning that battle, or have already been victorious ❤ otherwise, hang in there... it may suck really, REALLY, badly right now, but don't forget that the feeling of being sick and icky is TEMPORARY. it WILL pass.
How naw?
Just passing by to say hello. Wanted simply to congratulate you after seeing your message. Hope you are still strong and off the booze. I love you my brother.❤
I hope this guy and many others like him find help.
why
УБОГАЯ ЕВРОПА! 😂😂😂😂
One thing I hate about this generation is we think we have a right to record people misfortune.
Exactly
My first thought exactly.
It's in a public space so they're allowed. Also, people like you perpetuate this problem because you choose to hide it and enable it. You can't live in a fantasy land and pretend things you don't like don't exist.
it needs to be shown, this is drug called tranq and it literally eats flesh, in Cali it's literally legal
It's perfectly legal in public areas. Perhaps these dirtbags parents should hide them in the attic of their trailer home.
My son was an alcoholic and a junkie for many years.
He had these lesions on his legs too.He has the scars left behind from them. The other scarring and scabs on their hands and arms are where they’ve shot up over and over until they blow out a vein and it’s useless.
My son is coming up on 2 years of being clean and sober.❤
I hope that young man will find his way home and get treatment. We’re loosing so many young people
Il est impossible de complétement se sevrer, la moindre déception et ça replonge
Thank you Jesus
I pray your son is healthy and happy bless both of you 🙏🤝🌹🙏✌🌹
Much of today's major drug problem, is the ease of acquiring those drugs! Our (sadly) elected leaders are DOING NOTHING about the River of Drugs, Terrorists and Refugees, pouring across our Poorly Protected Southern Borders!
But the heart of the problem are the hords of "Unhappy" Young People! Poorly educated, many are "STUCK" in Low Quality employment, until they either learn a skill or luck into an OJT position, but most of those are limited!
We have too many young people with no hope of anything like a happy, productive future for themselves. They drift from one sleeping place to the next, often homeless by choice, or thrown out for stealing!
What do they shoot up
Don’t do drugs kids, simple as that.
Too late dickhead
To late ue need rehab
He cant stop it without rehab help
Body goes crazy for it and brain
@@Pajtim2023Don't start. These people are well aware with what comes when you fool around with these types of substances. I hope he gets some help
Lord this brought tears to my eyes. Lord please help this man and others that's suffering from addiction.
No one grows up and says i want to be a drug addict. I have about 15 yrs clean today, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Never, ever put anyone down for being in this condition. I have seen doctors, lawyers, pilice officers, teachers, and pastors, and the list goes on fall victim to drugs & alcohol. He is in his own hell. No program will get you clean, you have to do that all on your own. May God bless him and touch his heart before it's too late. ❤😢
Just don't start.
@@deckzone3000wow fucking genius over here! just solved drug addiction for hundreds of thousands of people congradulations 🎉 amazing advice
@@nateschaefer1637 Nope. It doesn't solve the problem for the thousands already addicted. It prevents billions from happening in the future.
Being addicted to drugs is a personal choice
@@nateschaefer1637 just don't fucking start using drugs how difficult this can be?
As a mother this breaks my heart. This could be anyones baby praying he gets the help he needs
I can't imagine him being a baby once. I think he came into this world looking like that already.
As I human I can't think thar this was someone's baby once. For the fact that they chose this life. No one forced them to be a junkie. This life was created by them and them alone.
@@amristar736 some causes of this is from the bad influence friends you know what l mean
Wow. Drug addiction has become a epidemic in our country. This video is proof enough Capital Hill, so please wake up
Where I live we have had so many over doses on meth, they cut the meth with fentanyl which is deadly.
@@goetiajoe12 that is true, but..he still needs help.
"I chose my path, you chose the way of the hero. And they found you amusing for a while, the people of this city. But the one thing they love more than a hero is to see a hero fail, fall, die trying. In spite of everything you've done for them, eventually they will hate you" -The Green Goblin
The fact the people film people without their knowledge and post it to a place like this disgusts me.
I’m sure we have all been in a state that we aren’t proud of, at one time or another.
That’s someone’s baby just destroying himself, it’s so heartbreaking to witness.
Thats SOMEONE. Why does everyone say it could be your child or daughter or whatever. It could be YOU.
@@melody3741 that’s how parents think dude chill out. Your obviously not a parent or you would understand
nah its funny asf 😂 we all have choices
😣🥺😫
@@videoezy2372 you life must be miserable if you find that funny you absolute freak
Kids, he was a normal guy once too.. we’re all only a few bad decisions away from changing our lives for the worst. Keep your head on straight and try your best, don’t give up.
Why does this not have more likes?
100% true!
Good words brother, you can give away everything without knowing until it’s too late
Pray for them. GOD Bless you all and your families
Actually seen many people like this they were all normal…
💯💯🙏🏾🙏🏾
Addicts aren’t criminals, addicts are people who are mentally unwell and need care. ❤
Drug mexican cartels are the criminals, not only criminals TERRORISTS
Look what they cause with their trash and ambitions someone must Stop them
But yet you can't take the El bcuz they will rob you
There needs to be more help for people like him. Mental illness is real and just because someone uses substances to numb the pain or escape, doesn’t mean they are any less human or in need of kindness 😢
When my son past away yrs ago i was in dark place, not caring what happened to me and quickly reaching for alcohol and pills ( from a dr for an injury) to feel better. Thank God for giving me a father and new women (who has been my wife for 14 yrs) who straightened me up and gave me something to live for. I dont judge people who are struggling like this because you dont know their story, they are just ordinary people who are in pain.
What a blessing you moved from darkness to light. But putting emphasis on the medication was from the doctor does not change the fact you were using
@@seekinmyshadowlands6875 I have no idea what you were talking about. I'm not chastising anyone. I was the man in the video! (Woman). I was simply sharing facts prescribe medication does not make it okay to use
This guy has some kind of flesh eating disease like Mersa. He needs a topical antibiotic before it gets so bad he will lose his leg!
Sorry for your loss. Amen brother you just don't know the story. You don't know what they've lived through. May they all find recovery and Redemption!
@@julierogers7629 Ms. Julie, it seems as though you were "chastizing" him for using prescribed medications " a Doctor from an old injury" as an "excuse" rather than an "explanation" ...I am a RETIRED Emergency Medicine Physician and I often see "Pain Management" patients being "castigated" for the use of pain meds...often being referred to as "users and pill poppers" and I WAIT...YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY ENTITLED & CORRECT in maintaining your position and opinion about the use of "prescribed medication for an old injury" and it being an excuse for "still using"....I apologize and will remove my comment.. I would like to take a moment and commend you for your continued recovery. Your strength and steadfastness through this horrible emotional, physical and personal pain will no doubt, serve you well in your life moving forward. Congratulations and best of luck with your "new" life and may our good Lord always watch over you and yours. Peace be with you always my sister.
I'm a Recovering addict & I'm telling you when your to far gone like this addict you don't care how you look & what you have to do for your next fix, he has sores on his legs & his hands arm's because of the cut in the Herion & coke you scratch until you bleed, this guy needs help now before he dies because that's what's gonna happen if he don't get help & fast, I'm clean now 30 yrs it took a while but I stopped with the grace of God, I'm blessed today thank you for letting me share God bless you all & God help him.
god bless you but who put a gun on your face to become an addict? .
It could be meth too, I've been clean 6 years and meth does that to some people too
Your nothing but a slave to this shit,
Glad u clean foo
Glad you're clean, what made you start
Jesus protect and save this man. Amen
I once had my struggles with addiction.
It took some good people in my life that made me look in the mirror and I got ashamed of how my whole life was ruined.
From that moment, I got angry, I detoxed, slept, ate, got back to working and exercising and I removed all people in my life who use or abuse anything.
Reality is hard, sometimes they need to be told the truth. Because only then, you have to get emotional to fix the problem.
Pandering and letting people allow you to make excuses and lie to yourself will only increase the suffering.
Please remember, no matter what his present condition is, this is still somebody's beautiful baby boy...😢💔
Only if he wants to be
That's a zombie. The beautiful baby boy was gone a long time ago.
Girl byye say t thata o the crackheads from way back!!!! Foh
Mom was a druggie, and dad was in prison.
Hes a idiot and deserves to be on the street
I've been working around drug addicts for a while now and this stuff is generational at this point. I'll talk to some young person, brain fried from drugs, and then talk to their parents and the parents are the same damn way. Grandma was a street walking crack hoe in the 70s, parents doing heroin in the 90s, and now their kids are doing meth and fentanyl. It's hard for people to break away from the only lifestyle they know if they don't have any support.
In their blood. Literally
@@Propain4eva exactly if you have two addicts that have a child. 99% that child is gonna be the same due to genetics and cause of there upbringing.
"History repeats" except when it doesnt. Thats when its remarkable
Exactly that's why terminations of pregnancy should never have been made illegal. Some people just should not be here. Sterilization is a must as well.
You cannot reason with someone who Doesn't have the full capacity and a brain as someone who is healthy. H simply will not work they cannot connect the dots. I unfortunately work with children who were born with alcohol and drugs in their system. Way before they become teenagers you cannot rationalize with them in their heads. They think they are making logical sense. It would have been much more merciful for their parents to be sterile & terminate these offspring. Instead they not only carry them to full term. In addition to declaring that they don't want the kids that they damaged. Wanting facilities like mine to "raise" and medicate them for the rest of their lives.
Heartbreaking, please be respectful, homeless people are one of the kindest people who couldn't deal with the evilness of today's world 😢
Why do people try drugs in the first place, knowing this is the result??
Because they believe it won't happen to them. And, drugs offer a "quick" good feeling. And, that's what they're after- that feeling that supposedly makes them forget about their pain. But, they've just chosen to put themselves in a deadly spiral.
To party 🥳
Literally in tears man, this is the addict in me as well, been their in those same shoes befor, still kind of struggling with it but doing much much better now with many accomplishments! Heavenly Father please place your hands on both mine and this man’s shoulders and work your beauty upon us until we once again are free from this devil and can walk fully in your grace! Amen. I hope and pray you make it out brother!!
Beautiful prayer brother
Continue to pray it s hard this kind of addiction but think the live it s beautiful and without this ,god bless you.
my friend of 23 years old 3 years traveling with this addiction but now a year and a half clean things to or have any father that he decide to follow him he decided to listen to his voice and now it's still struggling once in a while he says but when he lays on God all those struggles just disappears but when we are under God's grace everything becomes much easier to hold and to continue that was a beautiful message that you give may God bless you and keep you may he grab you from your hand and walk with you may the Lord protect you always may he give you the strength in the courage and wisdom that you need to fulfill all your dreams may all the wicked in the evil of the false demons be defeated and one day may they be and God's judgment for your pain and struggle and for every human pains and struggles and amen to you beautiful words
I love you. You can do it. Stay clean. Put it in your heart, these drugs and the hard alcohol is demonic in nature.
No human should put themselves through this hell. YHWH God love you and does not want you to suffer. We must understand, action, reaction... Cause and affect. For every action there is a consequence. What ripple affects are we causing in life with our actions. Who is getting hurt from this ripple affects besides the person that caused it? Everyone in the way!!!
Understand that when people do drugs, they are supporting either a corrupt Pharmaceutical Industry that kills people with their Sorcery or hardened drug dealers engaged in murder and all kinds of other heinous crimes.
Your money makes them rich!!!
Pray! Speak up! Get help! Stay busy with positive things. Help others, donate your time, etc... You can do it! Blessings. 🙏
Prayers won't do shit. Dedication and the want to succeed will
As an addict I can say I'm devestated but God I'm almost in tears at the same time to see so many loving, compassionate comments about this man im a fight to live because the evils that the disease of addiction truly is. Devestated because more and more people now understand personally because most know an addict suffering. In tears because I remember a time not long ago that most people would be saying that addicts are better off dead and don't deserve to be viewed as humans. Thank you to the ones that see a suffering human being instead of a lost cause.
I have been there in his situation before and let me just tell you people this is so not funny at all it is really sad and that is some really painful stuff 😢 💔 😔 😞 so please if yall have a heart at all and believe in God then please say a prayer for this young man because it could be any one of us that's going through the same thing as he is believe me I know I've been there still not all the way back yet I am working on it one day at a time God please turn all the pain and stuff from that he's going through please Lord just keep your hands on him and delivering him from his addiction amen
Me to been one since I was 14 and I'm now 44. Hate to see people been filmed without permission at the very lowest point in their life for all the world to see. There are times in my life if someone would have filmed me and put me on you tube and my kids and family would have seen it I swear it would have finished my mum off. You tube needs to stop this immediately. Good luck and mate praying for your recovery but most of all that you stay safe and stay alive and don't give up. People out there DO CARE ABOUT YOU EVEN THOUGH YOU,RE A STRANGER. love from the uk
don't ever take drugs again. I love you
I was just thinking that same thing how loving comments this got. I use to struggle with addiction to Jesus so me free. God bless you
One of my supposedly best friends filmed me nodding in and out while on Xanax when I was addicted and when she got mad at me about something stupid she posted in on fb for everybody to see I’ve never been so embarrassed In my entire life and broken hearted you don’t do this to ppl at their lowest this makes me so sad bc there’s no telling what happened to this guy to make him turn to drugs!! Megan Noe you are right tho seeing all these positive comments is a good sign that ppl are understanding that these people are humans and they need help and not to be made out to be a waste of space he is somebody’s son or brother m be even father he needs prayers and ppl to try and help him not to be made fun of and hated on!! I pray for him if I can get sober anybody can and I 100 percent praise God and my family without them I could have never done it!!
All I can think is this man is someone’s son, brother, grandchild. Someone is worried about him and praying for him every night. I hope he finds peace. 🙏
Quitting 'smoking' is easy. I’ve done it a hundred times.”
- Mark Twain with a hard truth on addiction recovery.
The fact is people treat drug addicts horribly and even worse when they get clean they are still treated horrible, especially by many doctors. Society must change in so many ways, humans harm and break apart each other!
who made the choice to do the drugs?
They were treated bad before drugs .. it’s called being poor especially of your white and poor .. you’re better off dead tbh .. people so drugs to mask that pain from poverty
You can bring them over to your place so you can feed and house them… for free
Sure it’s non junkies that are the problem
@@cameronbrown9770 what the fuck does that have to do with an addict getting clean Cameron? Fucking hell I still can't believe kids born in 2009 are making shit takes on youtube now

Respect to all these loving comments, g stuff, gives me a good feeling to see empathy in society these days ❤️
Did you really feel that it was necessary to film this guy? Not everything needs to be filmed and put online
It's so sad. I'm a recoverd addict 28 months clean and sober I know exactly how he is feeling. I'm sending lots of prayers and positive vibes. There's still hope for him
Woman you have 2 years and 4 months !! Thats sounds like more than 28 months! 😊💜 I have 6 off heroin. True struggle but sober is the only control we have. What we do with our body and what we put in it.
Congratulations on nearly 2 1/2 years!!
my fiance and I know how this man is feeling here, too. we prayed for him and are sober now as well. proud of you!!!
U like 10 years old
There's always hope. I hopefully he'll hit rock bottom and have enough of it. Jail/prison usually won't work long term cause it's Forced sobriety. They are the only ones that can stop the abuse. Hope he lives long enough to get there ❣️🌹
Wow 🤩 well done. I wish i could
Easier than you all think to end up in a place like this, be kind always, you might just save someone.
Easier said than done, I've lived with two heroin addicts, my daughter's, one is now gone, 24, Oct 6th 2013, the other one is living with me dad and is 35, wife took her life in 2016 and oldest son lives in a group home in Detroit from Bipolar with psychotic features. Ya so I know the anger and pain and anxieties, to tell people to just love and support them are just talking
@@m42037 I love you man.
@@kcchiefsproductions8687 Thanks, I left a lot out as you can guess, it isn't really good for us that went through these nightmare's as family of drug addiction and mental illnesses to post on social media because some people attack you and say "you must've been a terrible father & husband bla bla bla, you know..
@Ken Sturm Yeah man. Honestly I felt that because I'm trying to not get addicted to anything but I am literally smoking weed 24/7, tripping balls on physcidelics, or blacked put drunk. I've ruined multiple relationships with alcohol. I'm only 19. Everyone my age seems disgusted by me. Honestly I only rlly fit in with other addicts cuz they understand. Don't wanna call my self an addict but I def got an issue. Honestly I'm lucky I don't have access to anything harder rn because it's really hard not to accept anything that's offered to me. I know it's not the same thing you are going through. But it's still hard to vent about it to people because they really don't understand. So I guess I just subconsciously took this opportunity to vent to someone who shows they would understand. Sorry for this random long ass paragraph, Honestly I'm high and drunk rn. I wish you luck in life. If you made it this far, thanks for reading. Felt good telling this to someone. It's been a long time since I've talked about my problems.
@@kcchiefsproductions8687 My problem's withy family are long past mostly, it's just my 21 year old son and me living here now. Wtf are you drinking like that, you do know what CNS depression is right? You need to chill on the booze young brother just smoke weed pots never killed anyone, just remember smoking too much you'll just be a vegetable and vegetate and not do anything with yourself but be lazy. Shrooms in moderation I hear is ok, but for me I've never ate them and I'm in my 50s, I don't want to play with stuff that messes with the mind i.e psychedelics. I used to drink every Saturday night and smoke a half pk of cigarettes till I got a dissection of my Corotid artery, it can happen at any age. Getting drunk and sober and drunk etc makes your B/P go real high and is stressing your artery's and heart. Ok ya odds at your age is slim, but CNS depression isn't! Weed bro weed
yes they are human beings..deserving of help and care..not vitriol and cruelness..thank you for sharing
Its not the drugs thats eating his skin its him picking at himself
5 years sober! Addiction is a relentless disease. My heart breaks for this man😞
It’s great that you’re sober. I can’t imagine how hard that could be and how proud you must be of yourself.
Its not a disease.
I’m almost 3 yrs sober looking at this makes me remember how I was n be great of who I am now
Fantastic! Stay strong and keep fighting.
Just think about how great it would be to get high. Just once in a while.. You’ve learned control. You should start using again 😂
I think this is so sad to see this. I was a bad junkie and looked a lot like this myself. I shot up whatever I could, even stuff I really couldn't but tried to. I've shot everything from meth to heroin and dilaudid to morphine and never thought there was going to be a good end, only death was as good as it was going to get. I lost everything, my house, car, everything in my house, my friends and nearly everyone in my family. None of them wanted to sit around waiting for me to die but the worst thing I lost was myself, my self esteem, my self regard, and my mind and almost lost my will to live..I didn't want to live. Not like that, not hooked on drugs so bad I literally couldn't live without them..I couldn't live with them either. It was so hard to find help. I finally found it. I was doing drugs really my whole life but was addicted and shooting drugs for 7-8yrs. Oct. 5th 2020 I said goodbye to dope and I never looked back. I've never dipped my toe in the pond either, meaning I've never relapsed and I have no intentions of ever going back and could have so many times, I'm in constant, chronic pain 24/7/365 and I suck it up and deal with it and days like today is so very hard because the pain is so great. All I know is it could be worse, I could still be an addict right? I lost my legs due to drugs, my heart is done for, my liver was full of hep c with the worst genotype to fight which I had Nash also. I am dying now, but the difference now is I know it unlike my obliterated state when I not only didn't know, I didn't care either. Caring about it all now is the hardest way to live but I'm aware of everything. And it's so hard to get back on my feet it's damn near impossible. I can't work and I don't make enough to obtain housing. I live with the only family members who will take me in, 7 of us Ina small single wide trailer. My daughter and grandkids still hate me so I will never get them back and I only screwed up the one time and never put her or her kids in the midst of my hell. My two sons still care at least. Life is so hard but I'm alive, probably not for long but.im alive right now and maybe just maybe I will make it to another Xmas. I just want you addicts, even you nonaddicts, there's no sugar coating it life is going to be 50x harder than it was before your addiction. No one will ever treat you like they used to because you are nothing like you used to be. If anyone finds out you were an addict it will be no different as when you used to be an addict only your clean now, again that doesn't make one bit of difference. If they hated u before they hate you now. Especially health care workers. Don't ever make the mistake of telling them you USED TO BE AN ADDICT because you will be flagged and guaranteed you will be treated cruelly forever more. And plz, u health care workers don't tell me you aren't like that, YOUR ALL LIKE THAT. It's disgusting. Even society, you may get a handful compared to thousands that care but it's rare. However, don't take that as a reason to keep doing drugs, or to go back to drugs if you quit. No its not pretty out there, I thought it would be to and I was very disheartened when I found out how wrong I was but even so, if I could do it all over again I obviously wouldn't become an addict lol. Seriously tho, I won't ever go back to drugs. All those haters out there can just keep hating because it will not change my mind. I love the fact I'm clear headed and that I don't have that awful addiction on my back anymore controlling me. I control me now not the drugs or the dealers so stick with it and if you haven't quit yet do everything possible you can do to quit. If I ever do it again I am 100% sure it WILL kill me and for the first time in 52 yrs I actually want to live and I don't want to die but as sick as I am I wish my drs and nurses didn't hate me Iike they do. I might want to go to them instead of shortening my life staying away from them. Good luck and if anyone needs to talk to someone who walked in their shoes message me
what a message bro hopefully you get better
Keeping you in my prayers. This was absolutely heartbreaking to read, but be even more heartbreaking to live through. I wish you many more years of life, may god bring your daughters back to you before it’s too late. Stay strong and don’t give up the good fight.
Ty for the reality check! Not many people can be so honest and raw. I appreciate that!
I'm glad you're sober... Just see God and get baptized before your life comes to an end... That way you going to have eternal life with Christ... Ask him to come into your life before it's too late my fellow brother human...
Amen
Some people are sicker than others. Ima pray for him for sure. Addiction don’t discriminate
I don't understand why no one takes action to help these people. Counselors, therapists, doctors, anyone with a conscience.
What are YOU doing to help?
Some do but how many times can you watch them just throw it all away? 1 in 1000 maybe makes it out. Also they're just as likely to rob you as take your hand so what can you do?
This is so heartbreaking 🥺 But let me tell you, there is hope for us - I've scrolled quite a bit and I didn't see one bad or judgemental comment, and I'm surprised to see so many good people out there. God bless you all, and God help and bless him too.
Truly so much compassion in the comments. Gives me hope! God bless 💜✌️
I agree. I thought there would be much more judgements. This poor man is in need of help. So many people are anymore. 🙏
For every judgment there is understanding x
I was thinking the same
I hope here in Philippines, people too would choose to rehabilitate these poor guys instead of cheering the police when they kill addicts 😰 I don't understand why we as a Christian country would have many other wise good-hearted people cheering the police who kill these drug addicts instead of trying to help them or rehabilitate them.. I am grateful that in America, many people there have compassion for their suffering addict brethren and would want to help them get out of their addiction. I wish I can see this here in my country too. We are a Christian country, predominantly Catholic and it breaks my heart to see devoted Christians cheering the police killing these addicts... No matter hoe bad a person is, especially if they can be rehabilitated, we as humans, it is out duty to help our brethren fight their weaknesses and so they can become better and be an inspiration to others who are struggling also. We are sinners sinning differently and it's not our job to judge others if we don't extend help to them in the first place.
This kind of reminds me a couple years back. My neighbor said somebody asleep by the alley. Some guy left the bar and passed out tying his shoe. He almost made it home. 4 or 5 houses away. I tied his shoe for him and helped him the rest of the way home. Couple days later he came to my house and thanked me for helping him.
For people that never see this or have never had it touch their lives so tragically, I think it’s good to be able to see reality for some people and find compassion for the suffering of others. Breaks my heart for him and his family
As a former iv drug addict that never dreamed it would be me that would fall hard and fast so damn easily, I feel like the desire to separate ourselves from this reality that causes us to recoil out of fear and disgust is what makes this disease so strong and hard to beat. We don't want to believe that it could happen to any one of us let alone the people we love and invest so much of ourselves in. I fear that this epidemic is fueled by the denial that so many of us cling to out of fear, anger, hatred, confusion and selfishness. And what makes it easy to deny and ignore is the selfishness of the disease. Addicts are survivors that can go to extreme lengths, taking from anyone to feed that cruel soulless monster that will eventually take over completely and cast out any remaining hints of the human that used to enhabit the body. If we truly want to rid the world of addiction we must not be afraid to really see it.
I am so so thankful God delivered me from addiction 1 year ago!!
1yr here too as of 9/23 👊 keep going gal 🤘🤘
Congratulations! 4 yrs here 🥳 no relapses no temptation no nothing. I was so sick of being sick that I was basically running from myself trying to get away from what I hated. I did it and 3 yrs clean, it seems like a lot longer, the more years you get between you and what you used to do makes it seem longer which is a good thing. I've been at the "I can't believe I did that shi! and lived like that " point for a while now. I'll catch myself thinking about how life was and catch myself doing an eye roll about myself. 😆 I'm just so disgusted that I was ever in a mess like that. I don't talk about it unless it's something like this or if I think I can help someone and then I don't want to think about it . Makes me cringe to think about it now. I told my husband how I feel about myself now and he's of course saying don't worry avoid it, and look how far you've come. I said I wish I'd never been anywhere to come from..I don't know how long a person has to deal with being mad at yourself, maybe forever but it keeps me grounded and feeling like I do, it might just be a punishment I have to deal with forever, who knows ? But I can handle about anything so ill just live with it as long as long as I have to..
Congratulations
I'm soo happy for you
Amen!!
I had this addiction phenomenon explained to me one day by a woman who used to be involved in drug trafficking. She said, “It isn’t the Boogeyman who introduces drugs to your children. It’s their friends.”
It seems to start with just wanting to belong, especially if things are tough at home.
Sometimes it’s an accident or surgery and they get addicted to the powerful painkillers they were prescribed. I don’t think anyone plans to become an addict.
Some ppl drink 30 yes then crossover into alcoholism.... Some try drugs do not like them.. wome fall in love.. crack destroy u and 7r life in 6 mo what alcohol can tk 40 yrs to do. 5his kan using w newer drug combo o cant think of telhe name...shoots fentanyl w some kind of animal tranq.... Caus3s horrible skin lesions.....
I had a car wreck, may 30th of 08, the night of graduate high school, I was a 🏈 star, "bright future" car wreck happen 180 oxycodone 30s a month, doctors was giving them out like candy, she told you right,
It's not just friends though bc I'm an addict that has been clean for 11 years and it was my dr that introduced me. And I went from a suburban mom and wife, to being on these streets with my husband. He was stealing my medication and had to replace it and anyway point being I made it out of there but he couldn't stop. I left him 2 years after I got clean and he overdosed in 2019. I kinda have a problem with these videos bc that's someones son, and possibly a dad. Ppl who do this for just views and no purpose are scum.
Your definitely right. In my case it was my friends pushing it on me and telling me im a pussy for not doing it. Fast forward 10 years and those same friends are doing well in life have good jobs own a car etc etc, and im in a crack house trying to sell my cell phone. Your exactly right when you say nobody plans to become an addict. Im proud to say im 16 months sober from some of the worst drugs imaginable, and that my life has never felt more complete. I have 2 kids, 2 dogs, a wife and a home, and thats basically all i could ever ask for😅
Most don't even admit or realize they have addiction issues. It's a hard pill to swallow even when you know it is true.
I’ve just finished my forensics and toxicology course last semester, I can immediately recognize that this guy is on cocaine specifically, the feeling (delusion) of insects creeping under the skin where the addict rubs until ulcer is very characteristic of cocaine , I studied that theoretically but I’ve never thought I’d witness it in real life so clearly
God delivered me from methamphetamine addiction 6 months ago. I pray for this young man in Jesus name 🙏
amphetamine is good, you just need to know how it comes
Amen & Amen!
@Susie B. You will have my continued thoughts and prayers as I've seen addiction ruin my now ex-husbands life. I was told by him at a meeting that it was the best high he has ever experienced and he was hocked from day one!! I believe that's why it's so hard for people to put it down. I'm happy that you decided to stop it. It's a totally new lifestyle with learning how to be happy and live your life without being high. My suggestion, you didn't ask for but I'm just throwing it out there, get a fun hobbit or keep yourself busy. . I hope and pray you have a good sport system because that in addition to keeping busy will be life savers. Just know you have someone in Tennessee that is rooting for ya!
you must be ashamed of yourself. jesus could not save himself.
bhagwan ram only can save him, he has to accept hinduism
Watching someone struggle through addiction is one of the most difficult things to ever have to endure. Sending lots of love and healing prayers out to this young man and all others who are out there on the streets, homeless and addicted to drugs. ❤🙏🏻❤
Being an addict and knowing the hell you're putting your loved ones through but not having the control to stop is hard as well. I've been on both sides and they're both Soul crushing.
Praying for this baby and he’s recovering from he’s addiction 🙏🏼
i’m a surgeon i work at the emergency room in LA once i got called at 3pm, there was that guy with deep and big lesions all over his hands and legs they looked so scary and disgusting (as a surgeon it’s rare for us to get disgusted easily) however we had to do an operation for him and clean his wounds because they were intensely infected, while i was doing my operation one of nurses said “he’s and addict he has been eating his body” i swear in that moment i froze and even the scalpel fell off of my hand, i was so shocked however i ended the operation and i couldn’t sleep for 30 hours because the situation was haunting me
btw i was 28 years old in that time it was in my beginnings.
Lost two sons recently one to an O.D. and my other too organ failure.Oct. 29th 2020, November 8th,2021 . Dear Lord please wrap your love and protection around this young man and his family 🙏🙏💜🙏🙏

Deepest condolences and heartfelt prayers sent your way immediately. ❤
I'm so so sorry. May I ask was it Fentyal?.
I'm a recovering fir oxytocin which I was given a prescription but no back story on the horrendous withdraws.
I'm so sorry sweet lady, This could hVe been me only by the grace of god...
I wish you peace friend.
Btw I've been clean 10 years and will STAY tgat way, I don't use Pfizer products, drink coffee or any order stimulates.
Your a brave women fir not only sharing but still hanging on. And I'm incredibly sorry yiur boys got sucked into that horrendous cycle.
I'm sure they never intended to become addicts , I believe they probably didn't want the withdrawals.
I wished fir death whilst going through withdrawals it's a real thing that nobody can adequately explain thec excruciating pain, and I've had 2 natural chikd births.
No body shoukd be pushed to thise limits all because a evil demon corporation doesn't value lives just reaps the financial jackpot with deaths.
Mrs. Cole. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss..Two son's had to really hurt..God bless your heart ...My son is in prison for possession of something like that..I feel awful he's in there..I can't Imagine a loss like yours...🤎❤️

Poor dude. Imagine the trauma he's experienced. We must have compassion for these lost souls. 💔
Most people just look away and say, "it was HIS choice."
No, everyone has problems in life, he might have made the choice ONCE to try it, to escape heartache or pain... but after that, he didn't have a choice anymore. 😔 It had him hooked.
Prayers for this young man. 😔💔🙏🏼
Well to be honest, its his CHOICE only. No-one i know ever took drug in their entire life, and its not that they dont have problems in life or they dont feel alone its the culture we come from
Wheres the benevolent sozial or health authority to intimadate These tragic and helpless soul???
The world is just Watching...
Lord habe mercy
Exactly, it was HIS choice. He made the choice ONCE, it only takes one time.
So yes, there are EXTREME consequences to CHOICES. Even if you work everyday to not make that choice. The day you decide to falter....kiss your life goodbye! And yes, it was YOUR fault! You chose that choice.
@@marinabrown4242 take a few steps back please, it wasn't MY choice to do drugs, I've never done drugs a day in MY life thank you.

Why take videos of this? He's a human being
It's like a zombie u don't want to mess with in the corner of a room. Dying light irl

Where's the help? So sad
Especially what they do to the poor & homeless. This young man is the same in God's eyes as someone who is working in the job of president! Loved! 💕
You ever have a loved one get addicted? You ever try to help them? It is nearly pointless. They will use you to your last penny and not care about your emotional wellbeing. Their addiction is #1. The only help you can give them is to deny them till they want to help themselves.
He must help himself first.
hopefully not someone’s father
It angers me so bad I won’t even go into where’s the help.!!! Smdh but your point out a true reality. He can’t get help he’s probably been a generational American there’s no help for us. And no I’m not prejudiced or racist or anything in between it’s just a fact
i hope he can get better one day and maybe get into landscaping/construction, no one deserves to be in the condition god bless him
Yes. Doing your due diligence to record people and post their misfortunes online. Good job. Continue to monitor your area for any other people who may be going through hardships that want their situations posted online while I go search my local area.
Ive seen full blown addicts make a near full recovery from addictions to phent and other crap. Remeber these were someones babies at one time. Lets have mercy on their illness. Treat it as the illness its become. Not as criminal degenerates who want a high. Mental health isnt given ANY resources.
It’s a choice, not an illness
I m with you on that. And the sad thing is you can prey for them to turn it around and alot of people do and it's Amazing and great they change there life around instead of dying in the street from these drugs, sad thing is you can give them all the tools and support you want and if they don't want to do it, you can't make the choice for them. That Fentynol stuff is just a fucking discuscusting drug
No mercy judgement day is coming
But they are criminal degenerates who want a high. We don't have to play make believe to show sympathy.

Yeah you don't have to record somebody. I promise you people aren't going to watch this I think I'll I'm never going to do drugs. Even if the guy did it to himself just leave him alone seriously.

ive gone to kensington a few times i live less than an hour from philadelphia and once saw someone dead on the grass- nobody noticed or cared. i told a nearby cop and he brushed it off as an overdose which was just so sad to me. like the man who passed didn't matter because of his circumstances. i also once saw someone shooting up heroin right on the sidewalk in broad daylight. kensington is genuinely a zombie apocalypse- broken down buildings, people walking hunched over with no thoughts, people just dead in the streets with no reactions from anyone. its absolutely crazy there. if u go never get out of or unlock your car its not safe people there are crazy and fked up on all kinds of drugs but it is genuinely so interesting to see
OMG he is literally picking himself raw!! This poor soul is so lost in his addiction 😢
He's not picking himself. That's most likely where he's shot heroin so much that the vein is infected
@@bluesageful he's definitely picking himself.. either because of the stuff they cut heroin with these days, or meth.
@@len2489 I probably worded that wrong. What i meant was, the wound itself was probably caused by shooting up so many times in that area and it becomes infected and festers. They will then start picking at it, as you see here. I'm a recovering opiate addict myself, (26 yrs clean) I've seen his behavior first hand.
@@bluesageful So have I, I have almost 4 years clean. I've been around this stuff a lot. Infections do happen from people shooting up and then they'll pick at it... but people who use certain substances also just pick to pick and make those places on their body.
@@bluesageful naw bro he's picking, I was on heroin and fentanyl for years, never shit it up and was damn sure not like that..but Ive seen my best friend pick his face bloody, my cousin ( who had a OD and died last month) used to pick at his chest and his nose, like he would start by blowing his nose like normal cause it was stuffed up from snoring it, like he would blow it till it bled.. Wait a few minutes then take tweezers and go up in there and pull out the scabs saying they were boogers and he would end up punching a hole in the septum and pull out the cartilage and still say it's boogers..but he would keep the "dope boogers" and eat them saying that they have $40 worth of dope on them and he's not going to waste it. It's was sick but it was only when he did the dope, if you were to tell him the day after what he did he would get sick and throw up at the thought of eating his scabby boogers. Now if I had a bad cut and it was starting to scab up like on my leg or arm or whatever I'd sit there and pick at it with my Peroxide and alcohol and bandaids to clean it and put a cover on it. But my point is everyone I know including myself and my wife picks when they get fucked up or to a certain level of... highness? Idk lol but some just go all in like fuck it, fuck turning septic IDGAF.. gangrene bet that shit, shit idk if you can see the bone through my gaping hole in my leg I'm going to pick at it till I get it cut off lol

“ALL addiction has its roots in some kind of trauma, but not all trauma leads to addiction” ~ Dr. Gabor Maté.
No one wakes up and decides to be an addict. This man didn’t choose to become this way. His trauma got the better of him.
I wish more people would realize that.
Thanks for understanding, quitting now tho gonna kick the habit pray for me 🙏🏽
@@Addy-745 you are very brave and I am praying for you. Please SEEK help for breaking free of drugs!
. You can't do it alone. Seek out help groups, talk to your doctor, go to a church, talk to the pastor/priest , if you can afford it go to a therapist. SEEK HELP WHEREVER YOU CAN, PLEASE DON'T BE ASHAMED!!
YOU CAN BE SO PROUD OF YOURSELF FOR TRYING TO STOP DOING DRUGS.
It is very hard, therefore the more help you can get the better.
PLEASE STAY AWAY from ALL your friends, family mebers, acquaintances that are still taking drugs!! They will tear you down!
If at first you don't succeed DON'T BE ASHAMED, it only means that you haven't gotten the help you need yet.
Accept that is very hard, that you are fighting for your life - and that even if you lose one battle you still can win the war.
DON'T GIVE UP! You will make it, God will help you!
Reserve a little bit of time every day for praying -God will also help you if you don't because he loves you no matter what - but spending time with God is good for your soul, feeling his love is good for you.
Pray that God make it possible for you to feel his love.
Pray that he make it possible for you to trust him and understand the advice he gives you.
God feels so much compassion for you, he knows how hard your life has been and he is so sad that you had to suffer so much.
Only good things come from God, all bad things come from the devil .
May God bless you with wisdom and strength to overcome the addiction and may he lead help towards you. Be blessed.
Amen!!
@candy1402 are you getting help?
Breaks my heart. My brother who is only 2 years older than me is like this..I hate having to drive pass him, but definitely when I have my kids in the car I can't. Also he is very unpredictable. I've tried for years and years to help him. It hurts so bad. It's a grieving unexplainable unless you go through it. I love him with all my heart..I miss when we were little and he would play barbies with me, and then I would play cars with him, played tag and played outside for hours..then one day he just changed..I wish I could help more, and he would get serious help. Hurts hearing him call me crying sissy I hate my life and he has a lot of pain and demons 💔
Narcotics Anonymous is the answer, if he'll just try. I pray for him and you.
اتمنى له الشفاء من هذه الادمان
نسأل الله له الشفاء و العافية
شافاه الله و عافاه
Untill he has a reason to change or hits rock bottom it will never happen. They have to want to get better for themselves.
I know your pain. God bless them
So glad I got clean when I did thank you Lord Jesus.
That isn’t drugs eating the body, that’s from him picking at his skin while high. I hope one day this man can turn his life around
That's tranq..it gives skin ulcers fatal.. literally kills u from inside out
Not meth pucking its fentynl and vet tranquilizer
Nah he’s right, the guys on some stimulant like meth and has become obsessed with picking his track marks or other scabs, you can tell from how he’s acting with them, it happens all the time.
Its Xylazine and meat tenderizers are being put in dope and perc 30’s. People are falling apart
@@dimplesocktickletit7189 I just got off fentanyl recently, most of the dope has Xylazine and meat tenderizers in it. It rots the skin and muscle off from vasocontricting the veins, not enough oxygen is in the tissue so it goes through necrosis.
I witnessed this from my own mother digging “worms” out of her skin when I was 6 years old. It’s so hard to watch this
Why were worms coming out of her skin?
@@AndrewSmith-uz8bg she was so high she was seeing things
@@cthornton0706 Wow!
Oh dear Jesus. I’m so sorry that you saw that and lived through that. May God continue to bless you and I know you have to be a very strong person. I hope your mother recovered.
I'm so sorry. Is your mom doing better now?
This was someone's baby at one time. May God bless all the people of the world. May God heal you, dear brother 🙏💙
Drugs ain't a joke I work in the industry... When you hear some of their stories it's truly eye opening...
For anyone wondering the drug he’s on is called tranq (Pronounced trank). It’s a mixture of horse tranquilizer and fentanyl. (The arching of his back is caused by the tranq)
Ye. The tranquilizer is called Xylazine, its obviously a sedative but the worst part is that is it also a vasoconstrictor, meaning it causes your veins to contract or "shrink" in a way. If you keep shooting up in the same area, eventually the veins will die, causing the flesh there to suffocate in a way because of lack of oxygen. The tissues then die, and you have these really narly lesions. Its baaaad
Gives them a sense of tranquility
No, no it is not. You dont know that and you are guessing. Oh and jumping on the internet-led bandwagon of calling anyone who is off their head and arching their backs, or leaning down or asleep on their feet (...or etc etc etc...) as someone who is on 'tranq'. Its bullshit!
Spice and its many variations (which you probably call bathsalts and are nothing to do with bathsalts), also cause these symptoms,,exactly! Damn it, so does heroin! You want to feel an itch that makes you claw at your skin until you rip and dig holes into your arms and legs, take heroin.
Try to have a clue before talking crap online like you are some social substance expert because from here it is very evident that you are not.
There are a number of substances that present these symptoms. If you truly wish to talk about it and be an expert then educate yourself instead of parroting the latest online bs .
You don’t know if it’s Tranq. It could be Meth. That causes sores all over the body.
@@bleepbloop404 😬
I pray i never have to go through this again, im coming up on my 3 years. I wish yall the best and be kind, you never know who or how it helps
Kudos and much respect for you and what you have accomplished! ❤️🇨🇦
Bruh quit lying u prolly never had this issue💀
I’m glad you’re healing. Can i ask a question though? Do people on drugs take a shower? Or how long do they stay outside without grooming? It’s not to be rude. I just always wondered like how they felt or if they were self aware.
Jesus please save this man. Save him from his pain, his addiction and his demons.
Wow, i cant imagine the pain hes going through. We all need love no matter what
He feels no pain , until the high goes away. He does it to escape from reality of the pain that keeps him escaping .
He just likes picking his scabs like everyone else .
@@thedudeonmars
Excuse you?! What the fck is wrong with you?
He needs to be picked up by the police whether he wants it or not and taken to a hospital where they could start treatment. It should be a law.
We sure do 😉🤗
As a recovering meth addict I understand fully the lost and consumed moment he is going through. I’ve done this exact thing. Once you bare a moment of awareness and able to get somewhat sober, you awaken to this harm you’ve cause your body and mind. To feel such shame only to want to hide once again in the cycle. My heart goes out to all the lost souls. I pray on day we all find happiness.
God help us all.
What is going through his mind at this point? Is there something like germs or an invisible bug that he thinks he needs to get out from under his skin?
Congratulations Justin, I'm glad u seeked the help u needed, and stuck to it. God Bless u in ur journey in life. 🙏
@@MichaelSaunier It depends on the drug he's on. Some drugs make u feel that way. I pray he finds help, but it's only up to him to seek help. U can't help someone that does not want to be helped, it's on him. I hope he chooses to get help, B4 it's too late.
Yes if only some folks understood
