    Celebrating 11 years of sobriety from heroin IV drug abuse November 18, 2013. 🙏🏽✨ God is so good. I underwent two heart surgeries and ended up with endocarditis with a vegetation on my tricuspid valve from using the same needle more than once. My heart valve was replaced with a pig valve. I was septic and a lot of sickness and pain… I had to learn had to walk and talk again.. it was a complete nightmare. I wouldn’t wish what I went through on my worst enemy. I do want to share my story one day… maybe. ❤❤❤❤
    Thank you Renee for an amazing podcast. Again! This pod and the one with you and Aub were my fav!!!! We need more of you and Aubrey please!!! 💖 And of course more with the Queen! 👑

    Who needs to watch The Kelly Clarkson Show when there’s The Crysis Queen Podcast ❤

    • @erikm8372
      @erikm8372 2 місяці тому

      Her show is a little fake now… very scattered and very focused on celebrity ass-kissing. How Ellen used to kiss celeb asses. And that’s great, why would a guest not want to talk about themselves on Tv? I like more how Kelly used to be, earlier in her career. The Idol years and just after that. Like her debut album years.

    • @RandallChristman

      I love Kelly as a singer and performer but her show is about as interesting as a PBS documentary....boring!

    Renee, I just want to say. When you shared about the guilt about when you were pregnant. It touched me. I felt compelled to get honest with myself and say it out loud. I am on a MAT Program. I have been clean since 2012. But when I was pregnant in 2009 I knowingly used IV Coke and Heroin on one occasion and the guilt ate me up so bad that I didn’t do it again. I was on Methadone also. And my son is now 16 and healthy but it is something I live with and it is so shameful. But after hearing you speak and what Cosmo said, I can now see that it was my Disease, I didn’t seem to have control of my own choices in active addiction.
    I want to thank on you for speaking on your life experiences. I hope you see this and realize that you have helped someone. ❤❤❤

    Listen to the book “In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts” -Gabor Mate he talks about all forms of addictions! Gambling stems from Childhood Adversity! The more severe the childhood adversity the higher the likelihood your child will be addicted to a substance in adulthood!
