"Methamphetamine[note 1] (contracted from N-methylamphetamine) is a potent central nervous system (CNS) stimulant that is mainly used as a recreational drug and less commonly as a second-line treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and obesity.[17] Methamphetamine was discovered in 1893 and exists as two enantiomers: levo-methamphetamine and dextro-methamphetamine.[note 2] Methamphetamine properly refers to a specific chemical, the racemic free base, which is an equal mixture of levomethamphetamine and dextromethamphetamine in their pure amine forms. It is rarely prescribed over concerns involving human neurotoxicity and potential for recreational use as an aphrodisiac and euphoriant, among other concerns, as well as the availability of safer substitute drugs with comparable treatment efficacy. Dextromethamphetamine is a much stronger CNS stimulant than levomethamphetamine." - wikipedia

Thanks For Watching
Thanks For Subscribing
I know these aren’t jokes, but the interviewer always gives me the vibe that he’s about to crack a joke
hayden cook I know what u mean
@Kittycome lmfaoo
On my third video and just got that it wasn't a comedian channel. Somewhat of a wierd vibe.
@@cilinders He is a bit of a comedian in his other non-interview videos.
He's featured in alot of Gus Johnson's videos, cracking jokes and stuff as a cameo. It's hard for me to take him serious sometimes lol
I can listen to cgkid for ever
me too im binging his vids right now , he IS meth
j bridges Before I used I even watched him now I REALLY watch him
I don't buy his propaganda bs
prick sw his “propaganda” huh?
prick sw you’re an idiot
he's so, so intelligent, i wish him the best in sobriety.
anneliese conway no he isn’t
😂😂Got addicted to meth obviously ain't that smart
@@IIIXTREME addiction has nothing to do with intelligence, it can get the best of anyone.
Riley Bibb what the hell is wrong with u
IIIXTREME your very unintelligent clearly
This guy is extremely emotionally intelligent and aware. A pleasure to listen to this guy! Glad he is off dope because he has a lot to offer.
why you think hes smart tho

@@angelcanales7440 wow that's a great quote. Thank you for that
@@damsbb2440 Go watch his CZcams channel, he's actually very intelligent
because the darkness is what makes us strong.. you gotta know it... and a warrior will come from it.
I used to do meth. For about 3 years. I’ll be 4 years clean in 10 days. 🙃
Cami Elise Congrats on the upcoming 4 years clean! That’s awesome, keep up the great work!
Steve Giordano thanks! ❤️
Awesome!! 👍👍
Congrats
i can tell you look like you do meth
Sometimes i feel like weed is gonna ruin my life, and then i hear stories about crawling on the carpet looking for meth scraps and i'm just over here chilling, sipping some water
You ever crawl on the ground and look for nugs when your dry because I have
I have. Weed addiction is no joke. Quit that shit.
???? ¿¿¿¿ Nah i don’t cause i don’t put my weed on the carpet
Paul just got legalized i’m good i had a blast today
@@Paul-pd9uw lol, i have as well. no doubt i had a weed addiction.
I was addicted to meth for 3 years, consistently. It literally ruined my life. I lost jobs, cars, money, relationships and my marriage. I have 4 1/2 years clean. 7-18-14
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Liesl Slem I have been there as well. But one important thing I realized is: the Meth didn't do all those things to me, I did those things to myself through meth. I allowed meth to become the center of my mind, the center of my life. I let meth become my center.
Good for you!!! Keep it up... you are strong and you deserve a happy/healthy life
Glad you got clean, stay strong, and if you have a moment of weakness, reach out for someone who cares :)
That's hot! Was doing it in the bedroom more erotic?
6:10 "Spirituality is prioritizing the [human] spirit or soul over materialistic or physical things." Damn. That's a pretty good definition.
Okay, but why is "human" in brackets? I don't think anyone would have confused him as referring to the spirit of a dog or lemur. I don't know. Sorry for being that guy.
AOB because spirit is universal and within the all. i assume the bracket was put in by OP because he felt the quote resonates more when you just mention spirit not exclusively the human spirit.
Ego death its the only good death an individual can experience
Interesting view...and I agree!
That's the general definition actually.
This guy is very well spoken. Really enjoyed this one
His CZcams channel is awesome CJ Kid
It's CG Kid lol
Check him out CG KID
Justin yess he is🤪
I was about to say that, very articulated...
So interesting seeing someone so obviously intelligent convey such a horrifying journey. He's incredibly articulate, you could've done a 2 and a half hour show with him and there wouldn't have been a dull moment. Good stuff.
Its super hot to me 🤤
Indeed. He strikes me as more of a psychonaut than an addict of any kind.
Check his CZcams out! He talks about how all the drugs he’s taken feel you you don’t have to try em to find out haha. I just like weed shrooms and acid
There’s actually multiple studies on how intelligent people are more drawn to abuse drugs.
Agreed. Great minds are often the most tormented (often, not always)... so it actually makes sense.
Chatting with a suicide survivor
I don’t get it
emery jones meth≈suicide
Flippy Happy i was suicidal on heroin ..I think it’s equally as bad as meth..from what I hear.
It depends on the person, but it cg kid’s case it was his drug of choice and most dangerous. So it basically was suicide for him.
Shout out cg kid, we got your back forever my dude ✊
Guy says something beautiful about spirituality and the human spirit. "Nice. So you've been meditating?".
I think it was his way of saying that was a really good response.
I was looking for this comment😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
🤣😭
"Seeing a really hot girl but knowing she has AIDS." That analogy is PERFECT!
For real tho
It couldn’t be more precise
only that with meth you cant even wear a condom to protect you
@@YellowPenetrator You can always wear a condom for protection, regardless of the situation.
@@TheRealFallingFist I meant when you see crystal and know that it will feel amazing but make you lose your life you cant wear a "condom" to get even a little protection from that life loosing
It sure is. Very profound. And it's true.
he's a good man, i can tell. i wish him the very best in his sobriety. God bless.
"i'm only nice when i want something and when i don't get it I become an asshole"
@@voi7ed412 he was referring to when he was on meth lol
@@thecasino8022 how could u possibly get to that conclusion, fucking freak
You dont post daily 😤 your "about" is lying
The Casino the fuck is wrong with you?
IV meth was my drug of choice. One time I shot an entire gram and I still didnt think I had a problem. Ended up going to jail for manufacturing methamphetamine. Ever since then I've been clean from everything. I'm 21 years old. I'm comin up on 7 months clean in 4 days. Clean since 9-8-18
Congrats on ur sobriety man stay strong
Great Job!! Stay strong
@@Will-sv9mf thank you!
@@dnanag2642 thanks just hit 9 months
What’s meth like when u shoot it up I’m curious
"When you want to outsmart the devil, don't tell him first."
-Alan Watts
The reason the last day was like any other day is because whenever you give yourself dialogue, and say in your head "I'm gonna stop", it's still up for debate. You can't say youre gonna stop doing something and succeed. You simply have to stop the actions in the moment. Not deliberate it beforehand. A lot of ex addicts have stories of spontaneously quitting. There doesn't always need to be some sort of all time low or anything.
Being mindful goes a long way
maybe there doesn’t need to be an all time low but for there had to be something seriously wrong with my mind before i quit
Exactly right! Great comment because you are correct. ♥️
so true ❤️
Hooray! Cg Kid! His Channel is awesome!
Mittlerweile wundert es mich gar nicht mehr, wenn ich dich in den Kommentaren von irgendwelchen Videos finde
Keine Sorge das gucken auch andere. Ihr seid also nichts besonderes
Hooray :D So richtig deutsches Englisch
du hier?" :D
@Cg Kid 😚
chatting with some one who has killed
jack sparrow watch “The after Prison show” on CZcams they just interviewed a guy “Danny”who had been in prison for 40 years. He’s out of jail and turned his life around now.
@@Lilapurple111 big fan of Joe and his content
jack sparrow
This is vague!
Do you mean Manslaughter
Murder
Self defense
In the line of duty ?
Different murders give different stories ! Someone in the line of duty probably would be more chill but someone who killed a home invader would probably feel horrible !
jack sparrow
I’d personally love to see the self defense killer speak or a cop in the line of duty than just a normal murderer
Chatting with someone who has been killed
Awkward moment when the interviewer realizes he's been doing meth this whole time
"oh so I'm a meth head as well" 😂
@Hassan Alameedi like 6 months or so and he was talking about Andrew
I heard him say sober since 2011 or something.
This guy is incredibly well spoken. Glad he’s doing better.
Cookies are nomnom * _ *
Really intelligent, articulate guy. This is such an important topic for our society.
He's a fucking junkie
@@Barsabus and you lack understanding and empathy
C. Travis Mitchell the intelligent ones always think they'll be able to control their use.
@@charleshamilton1488 ive smoke weed for a while tried shrooms as well but always knew to not turn into a fucking crack head.
Barsabus you’re ignorant
It’s clear he’s so good at monologues and expressing himself and what it’s like to be addicted because he’s done so much self reflection and has had to explain to himself and people around him so much what it’s like , it almost sounds scripted when he talks
Jason Hicks no it’s because he’s a popular CZcamsr who talks about drugs and his recovery.
@@zoerosicki That's what he said idiot.
Jason Hicks maybe. Or maybe it’s because addicts are selfish and can only think and talk about themselves. Notice the absence of any real concern for others besides ‘acting’.
These addict people are extremely selfish and self centered. This is from a lack of perspective, maturity, and negligence for others.
This type of thinking is the required foundation to start doing anything destructive.
Try looking through this lense as a thought experiment. See his me me me I i I philosophy. The always choose to check out of life rather than effort to improve themselves.
No friends? Work on being social
Skinny or fat freakshow? Work on your health
Broke? Get a job
Not paid enough? Read some books to learn a valuable skill
Ugly? Work on your appearance
These assholes just do drugs instead of doing what everyone else does - try
It’s the same story over and over. Nothing new here.
Verby D yup. They are con artist excuse making scumbags.
John Madsen you’re a full blown idiot. That’s such a narrow minded judgement. The guy started a website as a non profit organization to help addicts and families of addicts. He turned down an offer of 300k for his phone number. How is he selfish?
this would be a chill guy to hang out with. modest and genuine. hard things to find. wish the best for this brother.
What happened to CG kid? He's erased all social media..
“Meth: like a hot girl but she’s got AIDS”. Can this be an anti drug ad please?
CG KID AND ANDREW! TWO OF MY FAVOURITE
same I was like "what is this, a crossover episode?
Same
Me four!
@@adamsavage2646 i thought this was an interview bt cg kid till i saw the channel name
I was a drug addict from 17-23.
Started with a traumatic series of events and one cigarette... It snowballed and from 18-21 I was addicted to Methamphetamine until, by sheer dumb luck, everything in my life fell apart. I was forced to rebuild the foundation of my mind. I love that this guy is open about his experience in overcoming that greater evil... A lot of people think they're stuck permanently, but that's a f*cking mindset. I could probably write a book about how the shitty things in my life, became my greatest lessons and those lessons transformed the way I now handle depression, anxiety, laziness and how powerful the body actually is in repairing psychic and physical damage.
Love this shit.
Maybe you should do that
hope you're doing well man :)

Down The Rabbit Hole did someone say DMT?
This one was really interesting. This dude explains it very well. Mad respect.
Checl his channel out. Cg kid. Lots of good shit on substance abuse/addiction
This dude is a Huge pussy who hates nature and loves real estate😡 fuck this guy doing all drugs to learn nothing!!! Fucking disgrace
@@PaulForstner wow. You seem like the real spark of sunshine. Learn to love and forgive sometimes damn.
@@PaulForstner I've actually met this guy a couple times in real life and I can confirm he's just like he is in the video, so you're just a dick
I did Coke for 2 years and then couldn't afford it so I went to my Dr and I was prescribed Adderall and then dextroamphetamine.... Once that wasn't enough I tried meth and was hooked instantly! I was addicted for 3 years constantly snorting meth and taking xanax to actually sleep but I've been sober for a little over a year and it's amazing
Brent Nicol how bad was withdrawal? Good job dude
Joe rogaine Xanax withdrawal was horrible, it was worse than alcohol withdrawal for me. I would wake up with cold sweats, then I started having hallucinations and couldn't sleep because my whole body was in pain and constantly thinking someone was there and mind you meth psychosis wasn't helping either with the whole situation. After about 3-4 days I couldn't take it and told my parents about it and went to the hospital which I'm greatful I did because I started having seizures within an hour of getting to the hospital.Meth withdrawal is very mental not so much physical... It was the hardest drug too stop for me! I would constantly sit there and cry for what I've put my family through, it was very emotional once I stopped snorting it. I still hear voices in my head about meth, I constantly think someone is there talking bad about me and sometimes I hear positive thoughts but not very much.
Brent Nicol i salute you dude, that sounds god awful. Im an ex heroin addict and went through some terrible withdrawals as well. The worst part about our addictions is that even a few years after getting clean - we still feel empty in some way, right? I hope the drugs we did in the past arent a permanent set back for our future. The world seems so dark and scary without our drugs of choice. Best of luck to you man, thanks for sharing your story
U and i are very lucky to be alive my friend. Xanax bout killed me. I was locked up for hitting a parked car, driving with no license, only five days.... While in there i had a seizure. They only gave me an immodium, and half an ibuprofen. I was scared to death i wasnt gonna make it. It was an outta body experience. I wouldn't wish what i went thru on my worst enemy. I felt like i was gonna explode. I was hearing stuff, seeing stuff, could barely walk. I didnt sleep for 8 days except maybe 2 hours, in maybe 12 minute sperts. I am so glad i quit taking them. Some doctors just give u what they can to get u outta their hair. I had major issues, but giving me benzos was one of the worst things i ever have been given. I think theyre the devil, and should be taken completely off the map. There are many other things that can be helpful. Sending u lots of love💙❤
hmm, every drug besides LSD I find that very interesting. Everyone I know, that's usually the second thing they try right after weed
Jordan Dowler true. Same. Idk I’ll probably never do LSD and it makes sense he never did it kind of. LSD with certain people can alter their mind and turn them into a different person it’s a fucked drug in that aspect. That’s why I’ll never do it, despite all the stories I’ve heard from friends saying it’s the best thing they’ve ever done and they have a life changing moment in a good way. Idk it’s crazy. Can’t risk it.
w/Mason .Forgey lol. You’ve never done it but you’re pretty adamant on how it can fuck you! Makes sense. LSD’s toxicity levels are so much lower than any other shit you probably do
Shrooms are way better
Shrooms
Seems like a better option
But idk man I don’t really like acid cause I feel like it’s not different enough everything is visual but there’s no loss of control like all the other drugs I seem to like I guess
Being completely conscious in a different realm is kinda worse for me cause I usually have anxiety anyways
Everything that kinda takes your control away makes my anxiety kinda go away
Some people don't like to trip. I've done a lot of drugs. I don't like thinking about leaving reality. Idk i just know my brain enough to know I shouldn't trip
Wow! As a parent of a addict this was so resourceful. We have been the rehab route and had this battle for more than 10 years and we don’t know what to do or where to turn for our lives to get back to normal even if our son doesn’t want to be sober. Thank you
A poly drug user that has never tried lsd? That is honestly shocking.
Paul Hofreiter seriously bro like dude tried meth and heroin over lsd???
cbreezy Yeah that’s insane.
Yeah, that surprised me. He'll do meth, but stay away from LSD.
@@maybetomorrowmaybe
LSD had the potential to help you overcome your addictions.
Paul Hofreiter lsd can cause schizophrenia in people who are predisposed to it. That’s what my cousin linny told me he does crack down by the Walmart
Wondering why he doesn’t look abnormally old? It’s because he’s actually 12. Don’t do meth

I really appreciate this interview. Most wouldn't be able to be so open about some of the crazier things behind meth addiction and it really helps put things into perspective.
"spirituality is prioritizing the human spirit and soul over materialistic and physical things."
This is actually really cool that's legitimately the definition.
@@upshiftgo I just find it cool because the terms spirit and soul (more so spirit) can be used loosely to describe the human condition.
So in a way being spiritual is basically being anti materialistic.
The physical world is spiritual, there is nothing but the spirit. Spirituality is the development of a deeper connection to your essence, your soul which is the generator of your thoughts, emotions and will.
I have a weird addiction: I'm addicted to hearing about and seeing hard core drug use. I'm not kidding. It started when I was 15. They showed me The Dark End of the Street, an old HBO doc about black tar heroin addicts in San Francisco in the 90s. I remember for the rest of that day I felt very strange. I was too young to understand the feelings back then, but now I think they were a mixture of sandness, compassion, morbid fascination, and schadenfreude. I've watched tons of documentaries about drug use since then. I can't get enough. I've seen all of CG Kid's CZcams videos. I'm 34 now. I've never done hard drugs, thank God, but I did have a fairly strong weed addiction in my early 20s.
After all these years I've learned that we're all addicted to something. And many of our addictions are deadly and we don't realize it. For example, I know some people that are addicted to salt. They over salt their food. Well, that can kill you. Too much salt will fuck up your body. We all gravitate towards addictions because we all have complexes and spiritual voids , even if we don't realize it.
I love this breakdown of your thoughts. Your curiosity as an adolescent makes sense to me because at that age in your life, you’re trying to gather an identity and attempting to experience a range of emotions and life choices. This allows you to gain perspective. It’s pretty common to hear about multiple identity shifts as a teen, “it’s not a phase mom” is a frequently used cultural phrase. I like how you step back and reflect on the true meaning of an addiction as well. However I think you lose distinction and overall meaning when you contribute “complexes and spiritual voids” as the main cause of addictions. Consider the chemical reason why someone is addicted to salt. Scientific literature agrees that sodium is chemically addictive, people do not consume excessive amounts of salt due to a lack of spirituality. Additionally, if you are raised in a household where indulgence is demonstrated by your parents, you’re going to indulge similarly without any seconds thoughts unless you are cognizant/mature enough to recognize. I think spirituality (not organized religion) has its merits, but by accepting the statement: ‘addictions are caused by a lack of spirituality’ is to ignore the genuine issue. Addicts become addicts due to a large of web of intertwined reasons; poverty and its effects on the community, over prescribed opiates, lack of drug literacy and general education, etc. To say an addict is an addict because they are not spiritual is to say that their addiction is of entirely their own fault.
CG KID!!!!! Love you bro, you're helping me turn my life around this last year
I’m a parent if someone who has relapsed & I AM sooo appreciative of Philip’s honesty - Thankyou - God Bless Phillip 🙏❤️🙏
Your honesty is riveting....looking into get information on a family member on or suspected of being on drugs...just wanting to learn....your videos are so insightful. I am so glad you made through that darkness. Stay strong young man.
Every word about his experience is so precious.
Phil; I have never done meth...not really an addictive personality. I occasionally drink- no pot, cocaine nothing. But I can tell you this: You are a very highly intelligent person who seems to have the word order in your brain functionally better than most. I talk slow, and have issues with my words- so it's nice to see how sharp you are. Keep the faith and get the message out!
Cross Pollination I don’t think you needed that semi colon
William Kirkland William but the colon was on point:)
he said he was only addicted for one year
I hope CG kid is doing ok. He deleted literally EVERYTHING (CZcams, IG, Twitter). Please dude, be okay.
All those guys seem so conscious about it. Their perspective, their thoughts and words are very well structured. They are wit and bright.
I mean I've met some people from my area (Russia, Siberia) who did some heavy stuff in the past and they look dull and sluggish to me.
But these people seem so nice and conversant. It's so sad.
who else has already been watching CGKID for over a year?
Subscribed to him before Andrew, actually.
me! i'm friends w/him on 'facebook,' too!! great guy . . .
Me
Hell yes!!
He's one of the reasons I've been off meth for 3 months😁
Glad you got CG Kid on this, we really need to spread awareness about drug education
its incredible how well-spoken and thought-out he is considering how many drugs he's done
My ex ruined our relationship with meth. He won't get help, but expects me to stick around. When he's high, hes extremely abusive and scares me. :( I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
YummyPinkLemonade that is a tough situation. If he is addicted to meth and he is abusive then he definitely not the right guy for you. If he really is a good guy but meth is ruining him then I would get help from friends and family and get him to a detox center. If he just isn't a good guy and does meth than leave him or call the cops if you can't
i was in a similar situation in 2011 for a few years then he would show up unannounced once a yr thereafter till end of 2017. it took me that long to figure out he had no interest
in getting clean. last time in jail was recently (he did 3 mths)he wrote from jail and the letters are still unopened. If possible have a restraining order served and cut all ties!
You are a moron and deserve him
Dude Love the fuck is wrong with you
Dude Love for wanting to support someone?
So hyped to see this collab, watched heaps of the Cg kid and heaps of you too Andrew! This is great
The collab we’ve been waiting for
Its wierd seeing cg kid being interviewed, he usually does the interviewing
I don’t see his channel anymore…
he’s probably fully relapsed and done for

Yeah so my asshole exploded
Phillip, thank you for sharing all your insight, experiences, and wisdom. I'm so proud of you for valuing yourself, your loves ones, and your spiritual path. You're a role model and very inspiring. I have learned so much from you. Nice to learn more about you. Peace!
This dudes story seriously connects with me. Its extreamly close to my own . Thanks for an awsome video
I was addicted to heroin for 3-4 years. I’ve tried meth before, along with a bunch of other things. I’ve been clean for less then a year. The fact that this guy could say he’s been clean for 5 years, and that he’s still an infant to recovery, is so respectful and true. You can be clean for 10 years and still be an infant to recovery, cause you can relapse at any time. So happy this guy is clean!
You are killing it, Andrew! These videos rock!
I really like how honest this interview is. Great work!
man 5:00 really hit home, i identify with this guy so much, cg kid should be so much bigger than he is, this guy is the real deal, the realest i have ever seen, he is gunna change lives, he has already changed mine just watching this video. i have been clean for about 6 days and it has been so rough, i have almost broke so many times but today i feel like i can just go on, he gave me what i couldnt find in any support groups and i dont have friends or any social support from my family, thank you cg kid for real, you are the person this drug infested world needs two thumbs up, i will support you all I can. is there anyway i can donate to his cause? for real
Andrew, you are killing it with this series! Keep em comin'!
have been watching all the Chatting withs from the beginning, they are really interesting to watch keep up the good work Andrew! looking forward to the next one..
I am so glad to have stumbled across this video. CgK did an amazing job of pulling back the veil and exposing things that usually escape others who are speaking/teaching/ sharing on this subject! Awesome, rare insight...powerful! Keep speaking....Yah Blessings to you in abundance.
Philip is the best he is so great to listen to about addiction, mental health, self care, etc. I admire him
Chatting with a neuroscientist.
Im also a ex smoker. So I undastand and totally agree with you about the stimulation of darkness. It was one of the darkest times of my life. The whole world looked different. I hated the day time, hated the light. Paranoid about everything, taken advantage of bcs i cudnt handle it. Stared out a window for 2 days and nights str8 waiting for pple to reveal themselves out of bushes. Thinking theyd give up and finally come out. I was a tragic mess. And you know its demonic. U cn see and sense it around and in you. Now im on a path of finding myself and my purpose for life. And my hope is in jesus christ. Filling that emptiness you talk of. Youd also b a gr8 testimony to others. Especially those who knew you.
Never touched ice, but things did get pretty dark just staying up for days off addy. Im just lucky no one i knew had meth
Thank you for sharing your story. Big hugs and love to you. I try to quit some addictions myself and I found Gabor Mate that makes most sense to me at the moment. You can find him on CZcams. He wrote a few books too, I wish this to help you as well.
Definitely something evil man I'm glad I stopped fucking with glass never smoked it tho I heard it was wayyy different but i got stuck on snorting that shit funny how I said my first time I'm do a key shot and that same day I ended up doing about 6 lines and kept doing it after that
Hi im ricky
man i thought you meant cigarettes at first i was like woa
I really appreciate how accurate the depiction is here - especially with explaining the arousal of it all and how, even being sober, the temptation is when you're around it again.
Well done!
I have no idea how I got to this channel or video.. I was looking up how to do part of a calculus problem on my graphing calculator. Never touched a drug in my life. But I have to say, I’m shockingly so inspired by this conversation! Wow. This recovering addict is doing so much🙏🏻
"i can get addicted to anything so i tried every single drug i could"
i assume he realized that after the fact lol
Makes it sound like a super power
All people can get addicted to anything
tubewoodycool that’s not true
That is true. By anything I of course meant any drug. But it's also true for other dopamine-stimulating activities like sex and gambling etc.
BUT different people can still have very different tendencies to becoming addicted to something.
This guy, Philip is amazingly brave and doing a great service to Society with his ground breaking CG Kid
Good interview man. Cg Kid is well spoken and informative, and doesn’t bullshit his audience.
i really like the guy with red hair. he is very insightful about things
He's a brunette
Natalie gonzalez it’s definitely red lmao he even calls himself a ginger in his videos
Natalie gonzalez CG Kid...the CG stands for Crazy Ginger so he’s definitely a redhead. Gorgeous tho.
Been subscribed to him for awhile! His videos are so interesting !
Same, glad he might get a bit more recognition because of this
I love Philip. I've been subscribed to his channel for a while now. I'm happy he's getting recognition for all the work he does. TV, interviews, his website.. keep up the good work
Wiam L. Well said. He deserves every accolade he’s gotten.
It broke my heart hearing him say he knows he will probably relapse.
Ios5513 nice man
He just relapsed a few weeks back :(
elliott clarke i dont think it was on meth tho no?!?!

That would be a great one
I thought this was CG kid notification and he was interviewing himself but then Andrew popped up

Raw, honest and incredibly reflective. He literally just shared my story... 2 years clean today!!! Humbled & Grateful 🙏🏽❤️
An incredibly detailed and candid view on addiction and recovery. Thanks brother
This must have been Andrews easiest chat with. He didn't say more than 10 words ahah. The guy just keeps talking and talking. But it was good.
stfu
StickyE No he isn't.
No Name Yeah you must know more than me. I only have years of experience of people doing in right in front of me and others trying to hide it. Just being brutally honest, I have nothing against the guy.
StickyE he’s not on amphetamines still. He’s very dedicated to his sobriety and to educating others about addiction and about how to get sober and stay sober. It’s something he’s very passionate about, that’s why he’s able to talk on and on about it. He has his own channel and website dedicated to this. When you are passionate about something it’s easy to talk about it for a long time.
@Cg Kid *Andrew paid you for this interview?*
*Despite popular **_beliefs_** regarding hair substance tests, you can result negative after 90days for meth. Also, you can send a strand of hair that's not yours or stall until enough time has passed for you to test negative or not send it at all. Apart from that you know most wont agree to your offer.*
This is good for education purposes. We can help others who suffer from substance abuse, but first they need to be willing to help them self.
His whole channel is great (CG Kid)
Thank you for being so honest and so vivid!! Super helpful.😇
No wayyy! I’ve been watching you guys separately for ages, never thought this would be a thing.
Interesting video. Keep up the clean 5 years bro!!

This guy clearly has no brain damage! Very articulate and fun to to listen to. God bless you
Neuroplasticity
That's not true...were you listening? Please don't give people that may be struggling reading this the idea that there is no brain damage. There is no way that you couldn't have brain damage when you are smoking battery acid, acetone and all other toxic shit...
@@knownbutunknown The brain can heal itself quite a lot
@@knownbutunknown there's people with alzheimer who look sane and normal because the brain can grow healthy areas to make up for the damaged ones. But that's depends on your diet etc
@@Vitorruy1 Have you read the research on how this drug destroys certain brain cells that can not be replaced? I do agree that the brain can recover from certain things however the brain is an organ...not God. The brain does not reproduce what is destroyed totally. Please do your research sir.
This guy is so incredibly articulate, and especially given what he's been through.
Thank you Andrew & Phillip for this interview. My biological father is a meth addict & completely destroyed my family and childhood. I've been needing this type of perspective and insights to the drug.
Yes use Meth destroyed everything I'm a meth head too but I quit 2 year ago and now i sober for 2 years
Abusing alcohol and meth ruined my life. Horrible shit, they both get really bad when you mix them....depressed, out of it and looking like hell all the time. Fuck that
I remember watching this guy's videos a while back. Glad to see he's still sober!!
He is so articulate. It’s honestly astounding.
This guy.. i listen to him so much this past month. Trying to stop polysubstance abuse and its so hard and i can relate to the things he sayin so much..how he shares he stays sober is helping me everyday
What a terrific bloke! Thank you both :-).
You made a huge impression on me. So well spoken. Hope you still clean, I love you brother!
This dude has got a lot of wisdom. Lots of self reflection and self awareness. Much respect.
this guy is a passionate, intelligent, nice person...he was probably picked on in junior high for all of this........then sometimes the outlet to turn off the unintelligent non empaths is drugs and addiction...glad he got out...keep going man
“My bottom was waking up one day and realizing the whole time was the bottom” ddaaammmnnn those are some powerful words
Amanda Appels not really. Hes a poser idiot wanna be druggie
@@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043 shut the fuck up
Gsfbffx Pdhhdf don’t cut yourself on that edge
@@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043 Wow, you're impressively arrogant. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Yeah I don't get it lol
cg kid: *says a badass speech about spirituality*
interviewer: nice, so youve been meditating
