    I started doing drugs since my teenage, got addicted to cocaine. Spent my whole life fighting cocaine addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with OCD. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

      Amen God bless people. Save your health save your mind. Life is better without heroin, cocaine, alcohol and cigarettes. And you have more money in your pocket. God bless everyone who has rejected the devils intentions to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes etc which can cause so much damage to health.

I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany.

      100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma

    I’m 29 and it ruined my life. I don’t wish that addiction on anyone. When you feel great all the time, it’s a hard, rough road when you snap back into reality after 7-8 days of no sleep and four 8 balls later. And you think you’re smooth and people don’t know. They know. When you’re disappearing for 5 minutes at a time every 30 minutes, you’re not exactly being sneaky. I hope anyone struggling can find their method of leaving it behind.

      There is great wisdom in this and many will not understand it! Drugs, Alcohol, Porn, Eating too much, Gossiping.. All escapes from something. When you are spiritually sound, have a clear conscience, None of these things will be a problem. We are creatures of habit and get ourselves into bad habits, but when you create good habits. Then your life will change! Too many people now live off their feelings. "Feelings - good nor bad, you just have to live with them" Just make a decision and go with it.. Don't live off your feelings, listen to the inner voice and it will lead you in the right direction.. Peace and good will to all!

    I was battling booger sugar addiction and when Joe said all this right here at 6:42 it really hit home for me. I remember fully submitting to the life I was living. I had found a new comfortableness in my sinful decision making. I had accepted that that’s who I was destined to be. Little did I know that I would overcome that hurdle and adjust for the better to seek greater beginnings. To all the men and woman battling addiction out there, it’s important to keep that lil bit of hope that’s caged up in your brain. Remain positive and act on the energy that gives you light, don’t let your inner demons control your mind.

    What made me stop doing coke was after months of constant use, one night I blew a fat booger which turnt out to be rotten flesh, I now have a perforated septum and even though you can’t tell from looking at me? I have pretty much one big nostril on the inside. That night I did my last bit of coke and ever since then I’ve been clean but the inside of my nose is forever damaged and I feel really bad about it at times. If anybody is going thru a cocaine addiction please stop asap… it’s not worth the damage or the money you waste for it. I pray to god you get the help you need, because god has literally saved me from killing myself. I will forever advocate against cocaine use, not all of us get a second chance to make things right, not all of us stop right on time before the nose collapses. God bless you, you’re only human. Don’t feel bad about it, just stop now and move forward. There’s a better life unfolding for you. Edit. I still do cocaine but I don’t do it everyday. Live your life people!

      @Paul, Why would he lie about it? Honestly, Cocaine is another type of perception people can have over you if everyone found out you did it. If he were to come out and say he's tried it, that will draw a certain type of attention to him not to mention he's denied it plenty of times so admitting it now would be putting out another fire he wouldn't want to. The perception of him doing coke and lying about it comes from the way he describes certain things about coke in passing. Things only coke heads would know or have experienced. If he says he hasn't done it, i'll believe him but I don't put nothing past anyone nor will I be surprised if he ever comes out and says hes tried it once or 100 times.

    You know, listening to Joey talk about how he beat his cocaine addiction is really fascinating from a behavioral analysis perspective. He kind of accidentally stumbled upon a principle called behavioral extinction. Basically, you remove yourself from a novel environment (he went to bed before 8pm) which is typically associated with the addiction and simultaneously create distractions to fill in the gaps. It's a textbook case of how to beat addiction. When I say textbook, I mean textbook. They teach this stuff in college level BA classes.

    I did cocaine for 12 years off and on. Never got physically addicted to it but I will say that the psychological addiction to it was quite powerful. Driving to go get it is indeed the best part of it. The excitement you feel when your plug comes through and calls you to let you know he’s got it, speeding through every red light, rolling through every stop sign. Then when you finally open the bag or the paper fold the cocaine is in the smell of it hits your nose and the exhilaration heightens even more. Then your first line hits and it is all downhill from there. The high is powerful but the comedown is miserable, it far outweighs the high especially as time goes on. That’s basically what caused me to quit it. That and numerous instances where it felt like my heart would give out at any minute. It starts off as the best drug you’ve ever done and quickly becomes the worst drug you have ever done. Incredibly flawed substance.

    Last year around this time I decided to quit the addiction. I was super depressed and just going through a really tough time cocaine gave me that happy good feeling I was desperately dying for. Little did I know it was probably one of the worst decisions of my life!!! I had done coke before and used it for work the gym and everyday function and it was just fun but was never dependent on it. This time it was different I was using it to self medicate my pain and create this great feeling that life was not handing me in my time of struggle so coke was a great temporary comfort. Woah woah woah but once it got a hold on me there was nothing else I wanted besides it ... goals family friends food hygiene and everything else disappeared it brought out the worst in me days without sleep horrible nights full of paranoia voices and seeing and hearing things that's weren't there and unspeakable acts of my doped up brain . I would do it only at night and would go in until the birds would chirp then it turn from night to morning to afternoon to all day long. When it was finished I would spend hour looking for crumbs I might have dropped and just have a uncontrollable urge to get more . Ugh what a horrible thing cocaine can be I lost my physic that I had been working on for months I lost hard earned money I lost relationships and over all self respect. I became a zombie like human whos survival instinct were taking over and just this horrible human being, In only 5 months of use. Thank God he pulled me out, the road to sobriety it tough and I relapsed multiple times before making any true progress but I kept fighting trying not look back because if it did that to me in 5 months imagine years of addiction. To anyone trying to quit their addiction to narcotics weather it's downers or uppers just know your not alone. We recovering addicts are with you but most important of all God is with you and he will never abandon you, even if everyone else has abandoned you and looks at u like a worthless human being we aren't our mistakes. So if anyone sees this video looking for ways to quit like how I was when I first considered quitting you are strong you are powerful you are worth everything and more, most of all your worthy of living a better life. Though u might try relapse , try relapse and u keep falling time after Time after Time keeps trying keep fighting and keep being strong . There was a time when I thought I would never be sober yet a year later after many stumbles I am still here healthier happier, still fighting and still breathing. Being a better me and not the me that I was in those awful times so I pray you persevere and overcome anything life throws.. you got this and you will beat it Amen 🙏

I was always withdrawn and had never even tried weed until i met my girlfriend who later introduced me to the party life and naturally with that came coke. A person who doesn't have alot of confidence plus money to burn is a real shitstorm. Literally almost snorted myself to death when i OD'ed in 2017. Yeah the drugs made me feel good and i have to be honest, i did have alot of fun but i really regret doing it. completely destroyed my body and mind with it and i'm still feeling the aftershock after 6 years of being sober. I really wanna impress on people to not even try it once, its too good for human consumption. I know its wrong but if coke turned out to actually be good for your health, id immediately go back to snorting it. It literally almost destroyed me and i still crave it sometimes.

I remember when we stopped at a bench my friend started asking about the coke, he was sure I had more and was pissed that I was "hiding" it from him like fucking Smeagol or something, he only let it go when he saw the empty baggy, though he was still suspicious I took the rest of it without sharing it with him. It was fucking scary how much it changed me, how much it changed my friend, and I decided NEVER to do it again, had plenty of opportunities but it's just repulsive to me.

    My experience with cocaine was this: at first it brought on intense euphoria, that lead to me jabbering on and on with friends or even complete strangers about weird theories and future plans and commitments that I would never follow through on. Then, after years of using it, it lead to me buying it and immediately holing up in my room in front of my computer. Playing video games, watching porn, talking to random girls, sex. However, at the end of every session I would get the most ferocious paranoia. Thinking I was about to be lynched by the entire community, being spied on, cameras watching me use the cocaine, and even being hunted down by evil spirits. Needless to say, I don't fuck with it anymore! My brain and conscience has had enough!

    The thing about any substance use, including even cigarettes, is that ignorance is bliss. Once you know what something feels like, you might crave it, even if you beat the addiction. But if you don't know, there's nothing to temp you. My advice from my personal experience to everyone who hasn't yet done hard drugs : curiosity is much easier to control than temptation. Stay strong folks.

    I quit drinking 238 days ago today. I couldn't drive home from the pub unless I stopped at the bottle shop to get two six packs of beer and two bottles of red wine. This became a daily habit. I drank it all a lot, but I mostly got them for the peace of mind that they were there if I needed them. Nobody would have ever known I was an alcoholic, I think this may be the first time I have truly admitted that I was, but when it became obvious to others there was an issue the anxiety was too much and I had to quit. It was the hardest thing I have ever done, and the damage is still healing, but my life has changed dramatically.

      Arnav Rawat great, coming off drugs sucks the first few days, afterwards it’s just normal. Took me a while to be able to drink socially and not crave cocine.

    I used to party with that shit all the time, for a good few years of my life, not addicted but used it when I was out at the bars etc, always ended up back at someone’s kitchen being bookey as fuck peering out of windows. It’s surrounded by absolute losers and I’m so glad I got away from it. At the time I thought I was having the time of my life but looking back they were the worse years of my life. Trust me and stay the fuck away from that drug, I promise you it’ll ruin your life

    Coke withdrawal is like hanging out with the devil. Opiate withdrawal is like getting tortured by the devil.

      @@davegordon6943 I was addicted to benzos, booze, and opiods. It's difficult to put into words what coming off them was like I never thought I was going to feel normal again. Took about 7 months before I even started to have hope of returning to reality. I nearly had to go back on them but glad I pushed through. Truly horrific, scary as fuck.

    One thing I noticed myself is that at some point you start to feel like drugs and fucking up and being an addict becomes part of your personality and identity. It's like the drugs, be it weed, alcohol, coke or all of those at once become part of what you are, or so you think. So it feels like you're being yourself, and you get comfortable with that idea. You want people to know that you do drugs, that you got the plugs, that kind of stuff. And that's addictive as hell itself, let alone the physical and psychological addiction you have to the high. And I started to feel like if I were to quit, I wouldn't be true to myself, and I'd stop being cool and having fun and feeling bad ass. If that makes any sense. And I'm not a bad ass at all, in fact I'm just a nerd who wants to look like a bad ass. And then you try to quit, but it's like you have to find out who you really are, because you feel like you just lost a big part of your identity and now you have to figure out how you're going to be perceived by others if you're not doing drugs anymore.
