    I went to school with ryley. This is extremely sad to see, and something I never knew about. I hope things get better man.

    For anyone who doesn't believe that Verbal Abuse IS abuse, please please please truly listen to this young man! Hear his story. So many abused just need someone to listen.

    Loneliness is the root cause of most addictions

    The way he is able to verbalize his emotions are next level compared to many others. I have high hopes for him, he sounds like someone who can make it.

    he looks very well preserved considering his lifestyle and addiction. No joke, just saying.

    I'm surprised he still looks that good at 26 after doing Heroin for so long. I thought he is about 22 or something

    He’s not completely gone yet... you can see the light in his eyes still. I hope he’s in a better place now

    Thank you for showing the face of addiction. Addicts are not bad people. They’re sick. No one would choose to be an addict.

    God damn. Same age, same story, same drugs, same shit dads, same life. I literally just watched myself tell the truth.

    If anything is going to save him, it’s going to be how honest he is with himself.

    When I hear “My childhood was like everyone else’s” I know that their childhood isn’t going to be like everyone else’s. No one’s childhood is the same, and these stories are a prime example of that.

    When he said "that was it. I knew I was in trouble. It was everything I ever wanted" * felt that. I felt the same way. Clean off of heroin 3 years now. It was hell. I almost cried when he said that. This dude and I have been down almost identical paths. He sounds just like me.

    I was in love with a guy, who was addict. I really wanted to help him, tried to 'save' him. I placed him on the first place. But I learned the hard way, you can't save somebody, who doesn't want to be saved.
