    I truly appreciate everyone who has supported my mission. I love you all thank you!
    I have found that everyone suffers with addiction in different ways, we just suffer from a drug one. I journeyed my detox/ withdrawal off heroin from day 5 all the way to the present. I have journaled many experiences and have shown many of my stories on my channel. During this process I have learned much and continue to learn. I have found that we addicts need new people, places and things for sure!
    People Overdosing and dying from addiction is real! I detoxed off heroin and know what its like to be stuck and not be able to stop using drugs. Intervention is sometimes necessary because I know the mind of an addict first hand. The way these drugs feel consumes the addict and they cannot think of stopping and follow through without proper help from others.
    Addiction can be overcome. Cocaine, alcohol, benzos, adderal, ecstacy, opioids, heroin, steroids & mushrooms are just some of the drugs that I have tried. I wasn't addicted to all of those listed but I have experimented with these. The war on drugs is stupid and the stigma on drug addicts needs to change in order to help the drug addiction issues within America.

    I was stationed at Bagram in 2012/2013 which was 3 years into my addiction. i remember being in the black hawk flying over these poppy fields and knowing that exactly what i wanted was everywhere, but there was absolutely no way I could get to it... then i paid someone to mail me some xanax which I cannot believe I did & got away with it. so then i went to the hospital on base and was able to get Ambien b/c I worked on the flight line but had to sleep during the day which was impossible with the constant planes/jets taking off 50 ft away. i would just get ducked up on Ambien and walk around base which was sooo so dumb. left my m4 in a portopotty bc was so strung out. dear God I was a hot mess. loved the mail room tho!! that was the lifeline

      Oxycodone is just garbage. Oxymorphone causes more potent positive subjective effects than all the other commonly used opiates in the US(opiates, not all opioids). There is research on it online. You have to inject or low temp dab it though.

      Also, saying otc prohormones are like steroids is like comparing mexican ditch weed schwag to dabbing. I respect this dude's journey and the videos helped me and others but if you're doing opiates, that decreases your testosterone so the prohormones were probably just bringing him to baseline. Try 500-700mg of tren ace a week where you look and feel like a god but the insanity is real. That's when steroids is peak addictive.

It also helps Muslim drug addicts who beat their addiction with the help of god through prayer
