Something has to change and I hope I can get some sort of plan tomorrow. I’m scared to be honest, but excited somehow. I need to do this. Mel, I hope I hear from you soon and you’re doing great. I wish you the best of luck on this.

    I was on night 2 and it was the worse I've ever felt . I was kicking , taking my clothes on and off . It was torture ! .............then out of nowhere , out of nowhere I say ! I fell asleep soundly for 3 hrs and woke up and felt 10x better and this victory has last for Hour and a half and still feeling badass ! When you feel your worse and you can't stand it and it's too much the victory is right there . Know when you are feeling at your worse , that actually how much better you are going to feel . TRUST ME . DON'T GET DISCOURAGE , DON'T BE AFRAID , YOU CAN ! MAKE IT THOUGH ANOTHER DAY ! - Fight the Good Fight from Triumph ! This song is getting me motivation and of course Mr Ryan Donnelly !!

I maybe got 1 hr of sleep last night but today Day 4 I'm not feeling that depression as much and actually feeling spurts of normalcy . Not 100% by no means but a lot better than yesterday .

I'm from Texas and I can't find a way to give you a yeeee haaaaaw. You can do it. Then wait for the feelings of the world. A nice cool breeze, holding someone's hand, the smell of good food.

    Ryan you are doing the work of God. Evil has noticed that and will do whatever possible to shut you down and shut you up. I have been a Marine corps sniper for 10 years with multiple combat deployments all over the world. I was severely wounded during an ambush in Iraq and was shot 5 times (ak-47) and hit with an anti personnel mine. Thank God I survived and even kept all my limbs. Unfortunately, this is when I began the opiate journey. Depression and anxiety from many years of combat coupled with intense pain, made opiates seem like a gift from God. I would use for 2-3 years and then have that life altering revelation come around, that I did not want to live my life that way anymore and would start the process of withdrawing and getting clean. I left the Marines and was fortunate enough to find success in the corporate world. It shocked me to see business executives mentioned on Forbes popping opiates in their office before a meeting. It is a widespread problem affecting all levels of society and the only defense we truly have at the end of the day, is each other to recover. I have tried the suboxone route and had worse withdrawals then the vicodin and eventually relapsed because of it. Personally, I believe that we should round up the individuals responsible at the pharmaceutical companies for introducing this medication as safe, and criminally charge every one of them for the epidemic we now face. I find it hard to believe with the lab resources at their disposal, that they were not completely aware of the extreme addiction potential associated with these opiate medications. I had created a new strategy to ensuring that my final stand with opiates would be my last. I had decided to completely commit myself to the work of God. Through many prayers during withdrawals I was lead to you tube for the first time in search of support from others recovering and fighting this fight. This is how I found your videos. I cannot tell you in words the support you gave me during some dark days. I never once wrote you as I was too embarrassed to have the opiate tag associated with my name on a public forum. However, I felt the need to tell you that you are doing God's work and the more positive impact you create on a larger scale, the more evil will notice you and crate a movement to stop you. I am not a crazy religious person, but I have had missions all over the world and have met unbelievable evil face to face on numerous occasions and can tell you it works to dim the light of God and our happiness. You however, are working to spread the light and give people hope again that they may not be able to find in the current support network. There were times that I felt like you were a good friend of mine lol. I would have a craving and tell my wife, " time to go have a chat with Ryan and figure this out". Thank you brother for taking time out of you day for such an important cause, and although we will most likely never meet each other on Earth, I know we will have the chance for that conversation when we get upstairs with God after our passing. God bless you brother and keep doing what you do!

      Semper Fidelis 5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
      6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
      7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
      8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
      9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
      10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
      11 Give us this day our daily bread.
      12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
      13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
      14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
      15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Was on subs for about a year and hated the way they made me feel. After a few weeks of being clean I couldn't take it and went back to oxys for a month. After 6 days of being clean I relapsed last night like an idiot. Watching your videos and i'm dedicated not to let this slip ruin what i'm doing. Im 25 and cant let this addiction control me anymore.

    Hi Ryan, Thanks for sharing your stories. I live on NC but was born in Paterson NJ and have 21 cousins in Toms River. I found out last week my son was addicted to hydrocodone. He was getting overdrafts in the bank and I questioned him and he finally admitted it. He just went this weekend and on his 4th day coming off the pills. I am shocked! I pretty much told him he could not live here and do this. I ordered drug test kits and all. He just got out of college and started a career in IT. I had a guy that was in prison for 3 years and lived out of trash cans due to addiction talk with him also. I don't think he knew what a weekend thing with his friends was going to get out of control like this. I am really not sure what to do but I refuse to allow him to do this and I have even went door to door. I refuse to watch him do it. He now has all his bills and paying me board to live at home. I am drug testing at random. I hope he realizes this going to hurt him and stops.

    You are an Amazing man Ryan! I'm almost tearing up watching and listening to your videos... I've been struggling with Opiate addiction for about three years, and have been on Suboxone for about a year now... ( But, we all know it's basically the same crap ) ... My life is S@#t right now, and I've gone so far backwards from where I was before I started using... I've gotten/weened down to about 1mg per day of Suboxone, but the PAIN and WITHDRAWAL that accumulates when I've tried to "jump-off" from that 1mg dose, has just been so hard... I'm really going to try to give it another run... ( I did so in the past, but, unfortunately have relapsed after a few months/6 months or so ) I'm REALLY drawing STRENGTH through your videos, and just listening to you talk about the process and the freedom that one can expect once they free themselves from this HORRIBLE drug... ( i can draw so many similarities, from SOOOO many of your videos... Love of music, GONE... Sex drive, GONE... Going outside of the house/social events, GONE... Etc, etc... ) Basically, just MANY of the same symptoms form use as well as withdrawal symptoms that MSOT EVERYONE feels... ( I really liked your video on "SPECIAL/EXTRAORDINARY people, as well as the video on "The Biggest loss form Opiate addiction... ) I really could go one for a while, but I'm not "special", and am in a VERY similar "Boat" as many users/people trying to quit/Getting the strength to proceed with getting off the Opiates, and tough through the withdrawal phase... ( and RID themselves from this addiction... )
    Thank you so MUCH MAN! I can just tell form your videos and energy, that you are a really RAD guy, with a HUGE heart for helping people! God is using you/working through you, to reach and help so many people, and I'm hoping that I can be another success story as well! Thanks so much Ryan! Huge blessings to you and your family! :)

    Over the past years your videos have always popped up and are always worth a watch. Can I ask how they detoxed you from 500mg of oxy? Did they give you any benzo to ease it? Glad you have survived the battle and helped people along the way!

    Help. I have listened over and over to your videos. I have been on oxycodone since 1998 for Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy and Fibromyalgia an incredible WHOLE body chronic pain. My dosage is 30mg 6 X a day. I am so tired of being on meds but don't know how to take care of the pain any other way. I try to withdraw and the pain wins. I'm only 67 and looking forward to my first grandchild. I already invested in withdrawal vitamins and cannot afford Calm Support. I know you are not a miracle worker but any advice would be helpful. I hope before you answer you might read a little about how painful RSD is much less fibromyalgia also. I'll keep watching.

    Hi Ryan, I have been watching many of your videos and you have made me start thinking about getting off Opiates seriously. The only one thing that I have relised though, is that you havnt got into depth in regards to what actually happens to the persons personality or mental state while withdrawing. My concern is, while im in withdrawing stage is there any chance that I may experience suicidal or deep depression behaiviour? I have been using for around 6 years and I am looking for a way out because my life has turned into everything you have described in your videos. But I am scared off the reaction that my brain may have, because I believe honestly that I take Opiates to enhance my view off life. So getting off them may leave me with this blank problem?

    • @robertluiana1734
      @robertluiana1734 9 років тому +1

      So in other words, I want to get off the drugs. But I need assurance that I wont go into a mental breakdown and that how much time will I need to begin working or socialising again?

    • @heatherrimmer8821
      @heatherrimmer8821 6 років тому

      Robert....I would like this question answered as well! I totally know where you're coming from. I have a lot of mental issues and the opiates always made me feel better! I do tend to get even more suicidal when in withdrawals. I wish you luck on your journey to getting clean!

  • @pauldurrah3777

    • @jameshollister8294

    5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
    6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
    7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
    8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
    9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
    10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
    11 Give us this day our daily bread.
    12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
    13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
    14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
    15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
