      @Black Silverchair are you sayin that somehow having money in your pocket has anything to do with the affect heroin has on someone’s body? Because that would be pretty fucking stupid.

      Gixerson. Yeah that's true. Singer EL Debarge looked like a scruffy, malnourished, bum when he was strung out on drugs many years ago. He was able to get clean, skincare, gained weight, dental care, healthcare. He's beautiful again. Hope it lasts🙏🙌

    Good story. I'm so glad he is clean now and alive to tell his story. If you haven't lived it I don't believe you can truly understand the pain and hell you go through to beat addiction, even when you beat it the struggle is daily.
    I do wish he had an nde experience to share coming back from an overdose but I still enjoyed his share. So many people are judgemental and don't understand the disease that it does take a lot of courage to do what he just did so I applaud him and hope he continues to improve his life and find the happiness that he deserves.

    Is it just me or do quite a few people in society have a hate for us recovering addicts? Or even those who have not reached any sort of recovery. I’ve heard some very hurtful things throughout my life. I’m very happy for this young man that he still has a chance to a life without the bondage of drugs.❤️

      Just asking out of curiosity, I have done X multiple times at parties and stuff, but how do you physically function after doing X on a daily basis? The effect is very fun but I couldn't see myselfs doing X even on a weekly basis, let alone more frequently, and that's from some one smoking weed daily (acknowledging am addicted, don't worry) and how did you hide the shaking jaws, big pupils from people?

      NICHOLAS JOHNSON cool. I’ve learned a lot in the last year. I probably should have framed my answer better. I know weed has helped a lot of people. Chronic pain is what got me into painkillers then heroin. If I had weed would I have gone to heroin. I don’t know. Sorry. I apologise because everyone is different and different things help as well as bring down. For me I know I can’t use alcohol or pain killers responsibility and it can Lee’s to addiction. I would like to think I could use weed to decrease my pain without getting addicted to it and over use it and then it becomes a problem. Unfortunately I have known a few people (I know these people personally) who have had issues with weed and it leading to worse conditions from addiction, schizophrenia, and suicide. This all happened when I was in my early 20s and it kinda hit me pretty hard and unfortunately it left a negative impact on me and I have had to look at a few things to see that it has it’s good sides to and has helped many people.
      I don’t want to take away from anyone a viable pathway for them to get help or get better. I will better educate myself. Thank you.
      Edit: I think I was responding to someone. It looks like a couple of comments may be missing. But yeah. Cheers
