I work with juveniles. They're getting younger and younger, and the drugs are getting a lot stronger. Thank you for this💪
Just found this video on sharing past experiences and overcoming hard times and its truly uplifting. Your stories of resilience and perseverance resonate deeply with the theme of building hope and personal encouragement on my channel. I just liked and subscribed. Keep inspiring us with your empowering discussions
Biggsamp bro great to see you doing good brother. Need some gaming content bro
Thank you for this. I am almost 2 years sober but my bf is currently in rehab and I haven’t dated an addict that relapsed and it’s been so hard. I haven’t been able to have any contact with him and I needed to hear this. Thank you! ❤❤
I'm so proud of you!! Your mom, and eventually you, did amazing!! I went down with him to understand him. I joined him in his hell as I promised that I would. It cost me. I did not get the support that I needed. I got labelled, judged. I knew of I stayed I would die. I gave up everything to save myself. I've been clean just under 3 months... Alone. Just labels and judgements. He's still back there, now incarcerated, and I'm trying to figure out how to support him with love and positivity without sacrificing my well-being. I have no support in supporting him. In a moment of rare clarity, he told me to stay on my journey and that maybe one day, even though the world is against us, we could cross paths again. Thank you so much for this. I hope to hear you again.
I just broke up with my drug and alcohol addicted boyfriend of 2 years. He was destroying my soul with his need to fulfill his habits everyday. He is unemployed and is unable to work due to his alcoholism. In order to work, he needs to be on drugs and alcohol. He would seek me and others to fulfill his habits since he has no money.. He would do everything in his power to obtain his fix which included anger and threats or he would just leave to look for drugs. He was extremely toxic , verbally abusive and selfish . I have to save myself and seek my peace so I left him. I had no choice.
I just broke it off with a porn addict. He was making me so stressed and angry and hurt that my hair started falling out. 3 years of hell. He has all the info and resources but chooses to not use them. He chose porn.
Please keep going with videos like this
My girlfriend of 2 years was gone for a month and now she's hooked on ice I tried to help her and it's hard knowing you couldn't. I check on her all the time. The hardest part is knowing she sleeps around now just to get high 😭😭💔
Why do we deal with this so badly? We need to make so many changes.
Loving my addict is so hard. One day from being amazing to the next not caring all we built for. I lost it. 6 mos clean one day he relasped. I lost everything in one moment. How do we rebuild the trust and lies? Im so sad for him I felt he didn't love me enough to stop? But I decided I love him enough to give him consequences. Our family our kids or his addiction.. He chose us!! I thank God everyday
So happy for you.Life can be hard but nothing like as hard and torturous as drug addiction is. Drugs like this are demons-It tricks you by denying reality and by denying reality our problems aren't dealt with thus manifest from an ant hill into a mountain. At first they feel great even numbing painful emotions...but wait feeling yourself through painful emotions is massive emotional growth and strength we grow from dealing with reality and it makes us healthier emotionally rather numbing reality keeps us weak exactly what the demons want! We AS HUMANS OVERPOWER DEMONS BY STAYING STRAIGHT ENORMOS GROWTH IN THIS!!!!A demon lures you in by faking that the drug feels so goooooood it hooks you AND THE REAL FACE ARRIVES.WE AS HUMANS CAN ALL CONQUOR DEMONS YOU ARE NOT WEAK BUT THE DRUG BRAINWASHES YOU INTO BELIEVING YOU ARE.ONCE CLEAN NEVER FORGET YOU CAN BEAT THIS.LIFE IS A ROLLER COASTER YES EMOTIONS ARE PAINFUL YES BUT WORKING THROUGH LIFES TURBULANCES IS WHAT MAKES US STRONGER AND HEALTHIER,NUMBING PAIN THROUGH DRUGS IS A BIG TRICK AND LIE .EVIL COMES WITH DRUGS ITS ON THIS EARTH TO DESTROY YOUR LIFE YOUR WORTH YOUR REALITY!!!eACH DAY SOLBER INVISION A CLEAN LIFE----SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR MAKE YOURSELF BELIEVE THIS FOR THE DEMONS HAVE BRAINWASHED YOU TO FOCUS ON WHAT YOU LOST RATHER THEN THE FACT THAT WITH EACH BREATH THERE IS HOPE!!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Music is too loud
I have this so much guilt cause I broke up with my bf because I couldn’t be a collateral damage anymore of his use, but I feel soooo guilty that I abounded him at his lowest, and isn’t that what partners are for? For your lowest? The ones that help you get back up. I love him so so so much and with a single breath I’d run back to him but as long as he puts his use first it hurts me and I don’t know what to do
🙏
I recently broke up with my bf of 1.5yrs...I hadn't spoken to him until tonight (almost a month)... however, I think it's for the best that I don't continue communication and just allow him to work his steps while I work mine in AlAnon🤷🏾♀️I pray for us all🙏🏾
Please let me know when you guys have another podcast and I will definitely be there.
Hey Tina! we do our women podcast every sunday at 8 pm est just join next weekend
@@Choosingrecovery i feel so bad because I was supposed to tell my story last night. I text Tiffany and haven't heard back.
I'm so sorry I missed last night we had an emergency come up i really would like to be there another time
Hey Tina, have you heard from them - I haven't and trying to check-in
The music makes it very difficult to hear.
Lib! I can't believe I am just now finding your channel. I missed your beautiful face. I'm so grateful you are still here today to tell your story. You have always been a strong, intelligent, and beautiful person. Growing up with you I was always in awe of you and even jealous at times. I had no idea of the things you were struggling with. I've lost alot of people to addiction. I've been to more funerals than weddings. But I am so glad you are still here and you are trying to do something to help others who are still struggling. I feel helpless somedays watching the people I love killing themselves and not being able to do anything to stop it. I needed to find your channel today. I needed some hope. Thank you. 🙏
Jade!! I was just thinking of you the other day! Your comment has brought happiness and tears to my eyes. Ugh, that is some hard truth to hear from you, it's true I'm just trying to do my part and help others. I'm so glad you've found our channel as well! I'm going to message you on Facebook!
Hey I loved the topic! I finally got to spend the 4th with my family! Now that is growth for me! Sorry I missed it!
No worries! Enjoy life is good.
Absolutely amazing so glad I listened to ur experience, strength and hope love u Paul 💚💜

Im in love with my school crush and hes an addict, im not sure what hes addicted to but he keeps distancing himself from me... i need to be educated so i can understand him
Hey Lesley, our email is in our description feel free to reach to me. We are starting a whole series on this topic starting this week. Be strong be brave. Being educated on addiction will help so much! I can send you some websites that have classes and more information.
I had a friend in recovery commit suicide during Covid, it was really traumatic, the grief I had was overwhelming and I cried alot
sorry to hear about your loss its very normal and healthy to feel that way look and enjoy the good memories with a smile!
Hey Scott, the window needs to be maximized. I see your blue Home Screen on UA-cam.
But what if the person his abusive while on the drugs what do you do ...
protect yourself and keep a distance, love from afar. Do not allow that behavior you don't deserve that love. As much as I say we are not the same when we are under the influence of a substance does not mean to allow or deal with this behavior! Please reach out I hope you are safe you're in my thoughts.
@@Choosingrecovery thank you ❤️
Great podcast.The Big Book of AA says " Resentments are the number one offender." A longtimer had to engrave that in my head cause I held onto everything.
the Big Book saved my life! Thank you for supporting the podcast! The old-timer has many words of wisdom.
@@Choosingrecovery Absolutely
