- Amudim Awareness Event About Drug Addiction, Overdose, Depression and Suicide.
A lecture by Rabbi YY Jacobson presented at an AMUDIM Awareness Event in Forest Hill, Queens, NY, on March 4, 2017. This event was held in response to many recent cases of overdose and suicide in the Jewish community. This is a sharp speech about confronting the crisis of youths losing their lives to addiction and despair, and the layers of deceptions and lies that allow the crisis to fester.

On the nail exactly👌
Boruch Hashem I’m one of these (off/on the derech) מי יודע children and you literally could not have said it better.
Thank you very much for finally speaking up on behalf of all of us broken souls.
God bless you!!!
This man is amazing! I am not Jewish but he speaks straight to my soul. I have been watching his videos for a hour and I can't stop crying! He knows that we are on a journey that we cant explain. I don't know why so many of us have been horribly abused in every walk of life. We have been stomped on since birth
No pain no gain. I have made a 360 degree turn around through my challenges and I thank Hashem for it. My challenges have taught me to stop judging and stop fitting in and be real.Real with yourself and real with your children, The pay off is priceless. Thank you Rabbi YY for this most wonderful inspirational, moving words. May Hashem give you the koach and strength to continue being an inspiration.
What a responsible great man. To be the one who says it and be ready for all the criticism that comes with it. Kol hakavod. I relate very much and it's people like this that are the reason I'm still alive. Baruch hashem. Thank you Rabbi Yy
Shmuli Weissler u r a wise man brother u r great we love u

I am so so so impressed by such sensitivity and truth
אחד השיעורים הטובים !!! תודה
I thank Hashem for guiding me to this wonderful rabbi 💕
Loved this. Thank you so much for speaking so honestly and passionately.
So true. Even more for Christians...
this is also true for baalei tshuva who don't necessarily fit it into the "box", aesthetically, and don't like this or that, or talk like this or that...or don't eat this or that... and are judged up and down, left and right by the "frum" community.
and when you mention it, people sweep it under the rug.
people need to get over the "YIDDISHKEIT"...and just connect to HaShem.
there's spirituality...and there's culture. two different things. the word CULT is in the word culture.
a wise man once told me "culture is the stuff you find on the bottom of expired dairy product"
Let us not forget the adults too that are very much on the fringe and suicidal, it's from all ages and backgrounds.
finally I hear Emet
Shweky
On the "vort of Yosef'being in a pit, perhaps this is the meaning of:
כי ישאלך בנך מחר
i.e. when your child asks for you and needs you
מה העבודה הזאת לכם
What is this "avoidah and frumkeit” that you do for yourself.. your own benefit.
It’s not the time to go out and learn, to say tehilim, to go and daven with a minian.. when your son needs you leave your frumkeit aside and deal with him
Rabbi Y.Y. you hit this topic on the head! Unfortunately, the community in Israel that my husband and I were living in, they are horrible people, including the school where my husband and I sent our youngest. No one understood where our family was coming from, therefore we and especially my son was bullied as well as being allienated. I blame these ruthless people for the fact that my son has gone off the derech!
מילים כדורבנות!
רבי עקיבא התחיל בגיל ארבעים
He said I want to start over .....
השפת אמת ( גור) יהודי צריך להתחיל כל יום מחדש......
אנשים ;; תקבלו את הילדים שלכם no matter איך זה נראה לסביבה.....
Don’t ignore your child 🧒...
תלישת ״ איבר מן החי״ פרושו: קרע במשפחות על רקע דתי
אומץ; קבל את הילד שלך איך שהוא
אתה לא יודע מה הוא באמת עבר....
באהבה הכל מסתדר לטובה!

Thank you 🙏
"Choose truth before G-d."
