Absolutely I believe that is half of the reason I became a addict. I’ve been in recovery for 6 years but I’ve had a lot of therapy and counseling to help me deal with childhood trauma
Nothing was brought on by himself imho. Good grief what a" choice" of parents. Yeah. You heard me right. The mother is NOT compassionate,never been. How dare she touting that badge.
@@tredjesongen unless you’re a parent you cannot blame her,bc you cannot understand her! Parents cannot enable children especially adult children! And it’s the hardest thing you’ll ever do as a parent! Do not blame her for his life choices!
I was a tough love Mom too, now that my son has died, I regret every moment that I thought being a tough love mom was a good idea. I missed a lot of time with him, and he pretty much died thinking nobody cared about him. IF I had it to do over, I’d never choose tough love over him, it caused a lot of heartaches for us and I will suffer tremendously with regret and sorrow until the day I die. My hope is that he is basking in the love of Jesus and all of his family and friends in heaven.
I'm so sorry for your loss and your regret over the way you handled your situation. Everyone preaches tough love but I would never be able to be that mom for this reason. I would be too afraid to lose my child while distancing myself. Be kind to yourself. Forgive yourself. You did what everyone says a good parent of an addict should do. **hugs**
Im so sorry for your liss please do not look back with regret. Your son knows that you did it because you loved him. Tough love works for some addicts usually as a last resort. I have 2 twin boys and I can't imagine how I would go on of anything happened to them. Thank you for sharing
Everything you did was ultimately out of love. Sonshine, who has posted above, has likely never been in the situation you have. It’s very easy to stand on the sidelines shouting and bragging when you’ve never been there yourself. Please…don’t beat yourself up. You were doing your best. And I am absolutely sure your son knew you loved him. You will meet again, you know….when the time is right…and boy, will that be a moment for you to look forward to 🩷
@@star.cat. i wasnt shouting or bragging about anything, and i wasn't judging; i'm heartbroken for this person and know she did what she believed was best at the time and for that she needs to go easy on herself; i wasnt as tough as i should have been so there is no right or wrong and no easy answers when being a parent gets this hard
@@salesp6351She did the best she could and she’s on the verge of tears. This is the saddest story I’ve ever heard. He’ll make a beautiful angel.Energynever dies. He’s at peace now.
@@taraalan1131 Yeah, including kicking him out of the house, putting him to live on the streets, having him arrested, allowing sexual abuse (yes, allowing, it's the adult's fault, no excuses), and not listening to the reason he refused rehab.
Seth saved my life may your son Rest In Peace. He was so handsome . On July 30,2023 I check in to detox & remain sober till this day . Even tho it’s only 2half months I already came a long way. I knew I needed help but didn’t know what help was or how to get it. This video pop up on my news feed 1 day & broke me. I knew I didn’t wanna die , I hate my life I hated being at my lowest. Even tho I have a great career, apartment & finner things in life , my mind & body was at its lowest the poison was taken control & withdrawals is death at times I wish to die before I would Eva wanna feel a withdrawal. Lil behind my story I broke my foot & got addicted to perks the doctor I had was just writing me scripts without even seeing me , then I end up buyin off streets . What I didn’t know was that the perks was pressed with fetty . One & done it took 1 time I was addicted to a whole new drug my body depending on it . I thank god I never overdose or had to be narcan & I now have watch every story on this channel, it breaks my heart.

I’m sooooo happy for you keep strong gf irs a problem world wide. Glad you helped yourself and turned your life around yesss your lucky tell your story. Maybe u shud do what this beautuful broken hearted mama did you both are amazing. It’s not taught in schools here 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🦋🦋🦋it’s horrifying love from a mother that lost her son. My son was killed horrifying accident out bc 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 I know what like miss my son heartbreaking and lost my sister from perks she took 100 killed herself 9.11.2008. She missed her husband one life. Night proud you xx
Sending you so much love & healing energy. I have been sober almost 5 years & I am so incredibly grateful that I got sober before fentanyl was heavy on the scene. I was also addicted to Percocet after many surgeries & doctors over prescribing. My sober life is so amazing that I have zero desire to use again & God willing, one day at a time, I will never will again. ❤✨
My best friend growing up was sexually abused throughout her childhood as her mom was not PAYING ATTENTION to her and her stepdad. This mom needs to understand that the majority of his issues came from the sexual abuse. Mothers or fathers who are reading this need to PAY ATTENTION to other family members or ANYONE who is near their child. My friend survived the sexual abuse from her step-dad but psychologically it RUINED HER FOR LIFE. This boy Seth was RUINED at the age of 4 when he was FIRST MOLESTED. PAY ATTENTION PARENTS to your 6th SENSE even if it's a TRUSTED FAMILY MEMBER. KEEP your kids away from DANGER PLEASE.
So the truth . I thought I watched my daughter carefully enough and fortunately she was never molested. And now I just think with my granddaughter, we need to watch her vigilantly. People are sick and children are precious.
Children are thirty times more likely to be abused by a step parent than their own parent. Not twice or even three times more likely, but thirty times. How many times have we heard or read about a tragic outcome of life before people take notice?
My son died 3,23,2023 he self medicated because he was in so much pain. He needed a hip replacement but couldn't get into see a physician till April 27th and couldn't see a surgeon till May, so he took a pill that he didn't know was Fentanyl and he died. I miss him so much, finding your only child dead on his bed was so awful. I keep replaying that in my mind, it won't stop. He loved helping people he was a good man he would of been 46 the 28th of April.
@swolfe9668 that's amazing for those who can deal with being ra%%! Or abused at such an early age , if your one of them good for you. Maybe you can go around and raise awareness on how to cope . Help prevent anyone from self medicating cos it's everywhere. And it's awful 💔
the brutal thing about losing someone is it's so final, it's over and done with, he'll never come back. be nice to each other. be nice to your friends. you never know who is next
Yes. Realistic-looking pills are sold on the streets, and it's in powdered street drugs too. If you have friends, or their kids use- warn them. They're made in China, then to Mexico, then from Mexico Up here. Dealers use very small amounts of it to increase the high.
@@jaynesegman7847 let's give credit where it's do, bug Pharma gets Americans hooked then once the addiction is too bad for big pharmas price rates then they turn to streets. US created a problem and needs to be fed. If it isn't from Mexico it will be from anywhere.
The father being absent prob played a major role into they he ended up like that. It’s why you see so much of this and violence in the black community. Father abandonment is huge folks!
Thank you for making these. I’m currently a 20 year old college student and I had no idea about fentanyl before I watched these videos. Now I educate all my friends about it.
The root of so much addiction, and obviously acting out, is because of trauma, and she's right, seems like the system will never break for the people who need it most.
So heartbreaking he was sexually abused!! I watch UA-cam channel- Soft White Underbelly. There are many drug addicts on that channel who were sexually abused and turned to drugs!
I dont have parents. Because they were tough on me for being fat they put me out. I never had anyone love me or be in love with me, I was adopted and my biological family rejected me too. I got tired of abuse, I got into violent relationships and I got tired and turned to alcohol and pills. Then I got hit and dragged by a truck. I sat alone on my couch and decided, I had to make my own family. My children are my life. I have been sober and raising my fabulous 5 on my own. I dont even date, I dont keep bad company and the other night I was so stressed out I felt like drinking and this series popped up. The feeling has passed and This episode really showed me, my choices effect my children greatly.
She got it just right “ No one cared enough!” I lost my 22 yr old son he suffered from anxiety and depression Covid was the worst time! I tried so hard get help to no avail. Now he’s gone! My heartfelt condolences to his mom and family.
I'm living this with my 37 year old son! I finally got him off the streets last year and he's doing much better only doing 6 pills a day instead of 30. I feel I have my beautiful son back...mostly! He's sweet and loving instead of angry like he was! He can function for the most part but years of IV fentanyl abuse has taken a toll on him physically. His stomach hurts so bad and he's having temporal lobe seizures but no one cares in the medical field. I have tried many times to get him help to no avail! 😢 God bless all the precious sons and daughters we've lost! 💔 I live in fear every day that he will die soon but at least he's off the streets and if he dies I know I did all I could and he WILL NOT die alone under a bridge!
@amandakay789 He has tried both but he needs in-patient help like a rehab. He gets so sick from withdrawals and even with medicaid I cannot find any resources to help him! We live in Missouri and my beloved St. Louis has become a dangerous zombie zone! Liberal policies are destroying my once beautiful city! I moved my son off the streets and we live out in the county now. Less danger and away from bad influences! Thanks for your concern Amanda! ❤️
@@tammycrisel8692 This is very sad. Here in Malaysia, there are free Government Drug Rehabilitation Centres. Drug addicts are arrested and remanded for two weeks before being sent to the centre for two years plus two years probation. It's a shorter stay if you volunteer. It's absolutely free. There are different centres for men and women.
The way these nurses & Dr's. Look at you and treat you. When they find out you're an addict. Is just horrible! Sending lots of Prayers and Hugs! Stay strong and keep praying!!
So sorry for the loss of Seth, may heart aches for you-and for him. Seth was so young, and quite frankly, it seemed like he had such a hard life. ): Being sexually abused as a child? Falling asleep in the freezer? Living in a portable restroom? Being shot? All of that, only to fall into a deeper despair. I can’t even imagine the turmoil he endured. It’s absolutely heartbreaking! Thank you for sharing your story.
My 22 year old son passed last year from a brain injury. He too was the sweetest cutest smartest. Loved by all. IT HURTS NONE THE LESS, I miss him so much! My heart just breaks for you! So sorry
Family issues like divorce, child abuse seem to play huge role in all these accidents. Young kids really need love from both parents and parents being present during their young lives is so important.
I think when his mom remarried it made it worse, especially when his mom said he felt like he didn’t fit in, that means he didn’t get loved like he should 😢
*_R. I. P. Seth ... you have touched my life even though I am a complete stranger ... my heart just shattered over your story ... this is the worst drug crisis EVER !!_*
I lost my daughter Candice to fentanyl poisoning and xylazine poisoning on August 19th 2022. I'm a mother and I'm devastated. She she and I live near Philadelphia the crisis there is horrible. I am glad that you educated yourself about this and you're speaking about it publicly I just wish people would make it more available the information that we both possess about these illicit drugs that are killing people. Ca Candice also suffer from mental illness throughout her young child hood and her young adulthood she died at 29 years old. I'm very sad that you lost Seth.
I have heard a lot about xylazine recently, I believe it’s a horse anesthetic. Horrible drug. And I heard it’s especially bad in the Pennsylvania area. I’m so sorry for your loss Cheri. I sincerely pray you find peace and healing and that you can find a new normal of sorts. That you learn to laugh again. God bless you
Seth had ethereal beauty, such a uniquely exquisite look. I’m so sorry he had to endure unthinkably tragic life experiences that led to him to self destruct. This poor mother did everything humanly possible to help him. She’s doing an amazing job honoring her son by spreading awareness so others lives are saved.
This story literally has me screaming out loud!!! He was a beautiful young man with the most stunning blue eyes I’ve ever seen. All of these horrible things happened to him thru no fault of his own. I looked at his tummy and I could almost feel the pain inside my own. His mom did everything she could. I can’t understand how anyone can have sexual feelings towards a child. His abuser killed him at the age of 4. Then the burglars tried to literally kill him. How much can any one person endure? Goodness, my heart just burns for him and his mom. Ugh. So unfair. 😢
@@birdiesnotebooks I was molested by my own dad and I can assure you it leads to a lot of self loathing and many times self medicating. I am sober now but that's something that never leaves you
Bless this young man's heart. The childhood trauma and abuse, chronic pain and father's absence no doubt played a huge part of this. My younger sister was s3xually abused by our mother's boyfriend starting at age 8, no adults believed her and it continued. Today, my sister has been knee deep in a 10+ year addiction and I do not know where she is or if she's alive. I fully believe the abuse she endured is an engine that lead to where she's been on the streets. These people are self medicating deep pain away. People reaching for substances deserve compassion. Rest easy Seth
I'm living this this very moment ...my 26 year old is on life support in icu ...he went down yesterday afternoon ...he did not respond to 4 shots of Narcan or hand compressions by friends till 1st responders arrived managing to use pads to restart his heart ..but he went 15 minutes no oxygen to the brain ....so prayers for my son ..his name is Dion ❤️🙏🕊🧠♥️🧠🕊🙏❤️
So sorry to hear what you're going through right now. We're working on a similar story of a survivor who is progressing on his journey back to life before his overdose. There is always hope.
We found my son in front of our house on November 23th 2018 and he died on November 25th because he was brain dead. All because of Fentanyl . I know who gave it to him and nothing is done. Nobody does anything I have text messages I showed to police and nothing is done. I miss him every day !❤
The part where you said you would love him more rather than discipline or try to teach him is where you would redo really got to me, I'm a tough love mom to my oldest & it really showed me I need to soften up with him, he'll be 14 this year, really great kid but from a broken home, dad hasn't been around & it's easy for kids to search to fill that void. Praying for us all 🙏🙏
We are loosing so many beautiful people, so many, so young. Its heartbreaking. I feel like i want to cry for every parent on these posts. I pray i wont be on here one day talking about my daughter. 😭🙏😥
Thank you for sharing your story. As a nurse, it hurts my heart to hear how he was treated while in the hospital during the pandemic. Not only did he have to deal with the trauma of being shot, he didn't deserve to be talked to in the manner he was by what I assume were the healthcare workers. My sincere condolences to you on the loss of your son. I agree with you, God has him at peace now. 💜
As a chronic pain patient, sadly people like me are treated horribly by all medical personnel, including nurses! I'm sure you two are sweet and compassionate but unfortunately that's not the status quo 😔
@@meeeeeeeeeeeep I became disabled in 2015 when I picked up a teenager that was coding and my neck vertebrae went in the opposite direction that I was moving. I was truly amazed at the way I was treated by some medical personnel that found out I was on chronic pain meds. I do understand where you're coming from, but unfortunately there are those types of medical people out there. I'm sorry you were treated so badly.
My son went through the same thing but he was shot 3 different times and the last one he was killed.And my son was on pills and weed just like your son.I pray for your strength and u have my deepest condolences.🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
My prayers and empathy go out to you! I am a retired nurse and the good mental health support we used to have years ago is no longer and it is sad!!! I am so happy that you have God in your life!
I’m so sorry for your loss. You don’t have to feel like your son was the villain, they are handing out pills everywhere and not offering therapy long term or teaching them coping skills. My father was an addict because of something that happened to him as a child in Catholic school and he never got the help he needed. Sending prayers to you .
Not just Texas!! AMERICA HAS THE WORST HEALTHCARE SYSTEM IN THE WORLD!!! AND MOREOVER, OUR *MENTAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HAS BEEN BROKEN SINCE THE 1960'S. Heartbreaking testimony.
A series of unfortunate events played a role in shaping his destiny. Mom, you certainly worked hard to get your son right. I'm sorry it had to end like that. The saddest thing ever when a mother loses their child 😢
Appreciate your comments. We're developing a series of stories about recovery you might find helpful. We've completed two stories so far, more are coming. Here's a link - ua-cam.com/play/PLdCPA32W_p39Z8hi7xSIX3Fkqmhd7mRzj.html
Abandoned by their father at ages 12 & 13 (he didn’t even say goodbye), both my sons & I crashed into mental & emotional chaos. Within 2 years the older boy was in juvenile court. Both his father & I attended. Nightmare. At the end the PROSECUTOR took me aside into a private room & said, “You need an attorney.” Me?? “You mean I need to hire a private attorney for my son?” “No. YOU need an attorney. I can’t say more & I’m not supposed to even say this. But YOU need an attorney.” I obeyed. Without my attorney, my son never would have got over 2 months in the state adolescent mental health hospital. He was in a continual rage & becoming violent. He needed that hospital - but he never would have had it “court ordered” without my attorney. Sad, but true. The hospital team gave him discipline, therapy & skills to deal with his anger. It wasn’t easy; we had rough patches. But without that long hospital stay, he would have gone from bad to worse. I’m forever grateful. He’s grown up now: 2 Master’s degrees, great wife, daughter, loves his job & owns a home. Nip it in the bud. Get help as early as possible. The longer you let it go, the harder it is to get out of the pain. If docs, hospitals, recover centers are dismissing you, get an attorney! They’re scared of lawyers, scared of being sued. Suddenly they’re eager to do the right thing. Whatever it takes. Do it.
My heart goes out to Seth and Seth's mother, this is very heartbreaking, I had tears in my eyes. I am so Sorry Seth this happened to you. God knows you were a good young man. God Knows your heart. You will Never be Forgotten Seth.
Indeed, this is one of the saddest fentanyl poisoning stories so far. He had to endure more trauma & suffering in his short life than most people have to in 80 years of lifetime.
He was failed by so many people that should have helped him. His whole life seemed to be the biggest struggle. This poor soul, this beautiful boy let down by everyone in his life. He is in a much better place now, in the arms of his past loved ones. Rest in peace Seth. You deserved much better🙏🏼
Beautiful momma and beautiful son. I'm so sorry for what you and Seth went through. You did the best you could, momma. God comfort you each day in knowing your baby is in heaven with no more pain or addiction. God put his angels' wings around you with peace and comfort. RIP Seth. You are loved and missed.
She did not say how the sexual abuse happened if he was living with her or how he became addicted to drugs. She said he was kicked out of her house. I'm not sure tough love was the right thing for him. She said he was compassionate and then told of his anger issues. Some of the story does not make sense.
@@MunchkinBoy0308I don’t think she was a bad mother but I think she thought touch love was the only way for her to parent. He needed more empathy when it came to his discipline. Some children do better with tough love, but some need more of a gentle approach.
Young man you had a rough beginning, You didn't deserve this you was a handsome young male. I'm so sorry you couldn't see past your pain. I am so sorry Rest in Heaven I hope your at peace with the love of our lord and savior. Sleep in Peace.
Such a beautiful family. Beautiful boy. Beautiful mom. Fentanyl has no “type”. Anyone can be a victim. It is so unfair. What a loss. I’m so sorry for you all. This is just horrible.
@@ryanblanchard2508 Synthetic fentanyl comes from China. It is then manufactured into these fake pills in Mexico and comes up into the United States. It's all a plan. Thinning of the herd. They're also spying on Americans via TikTok, and slowly taking over this country without firing a single shot. The president doesn't care. He's got dementia and the government/media wants you to be more worried about race and being confused about your genitals then what's really going on. We're screwed.
It's not just Texas. The lack of mental health treatment is all over the US. Please take care of yourself. I cannot imagine your loss. Many blessings to you and your family.
Correct, it isn't just Texas. We're developing plans to shoot stories in California, New York, Florida, and other locations. We receive requests from all over the country to create stories. We're a small production company and the challenge for us is always finding funding. The films in this series are self-funded, and the only source we have other than our own pockets is the bit of revenue the UA-cam ads generate. It isn't much but it is enough to continue producing. Every film in the series represents 6-8 hours of work or more.
The amount of broken families and sexual abuse in this country is an epidemic that is resulting in major addictions. Like it or not, the numbers don’t lie. Addiction is the devil. Rest easy, Seth, you had a life not many could have made it through. I’m sorry life was so hard.
Of all the stories I've seen on this channel. This is the one that has hit me. Seth was a beautiful baby boy. A handsome young man. I'm so sorry my prayers go to Seth's mother. I am so sorry 😢. You are still a mom and will forever be.
Thank you for everything y'all do.Letting these parents tell their stories and bringing awareness to the Fentanyl crisis.Y'all are doing more than our own President and Congress.Keep up the work because we appreciate it.Your channel is such a blessing.❤
Tuff love does not work for many ...a brilliant book recommended by a mom who lost her 17 year old , but Said she wish she d have had this book earlier befor drug use began ...the book is called "BEYOND ADDICTION "
I’m so sorry for your loss. This one hit me hard because I’m in Houston and worked in the Bacliff area and lived in the Clear Lake area. The callous’s attitudes you and your son were met with just angers me and makes me sad. Your strength is inspiring. Lifting you up in prayer.
How profound.. that God answered her prayers just not in the way that she wanted. Wow! That’s deep. I’m sorry for your loss. But God took your son to a place where he is free from PTSD and no more stomach pain or physical pain yearning for terrible drugs. I pray that your son is at peace in Jesus’s arms. ❤
So raw, honest, open and transparent. People need to hear the hard truth about individuals who live with this disease. I work with individuals with substance use disorders. Thank you for sharing your story. Most individuals who live with addiction also live with mental illness and do self medicate. There is so much stigma associated with these two diseases. The first time we try a substance it is a choice, but when addiction kicks in, it is no longer a choice. Some people can drink a beer and be ok. The next person may have a beer and the brain instantly awakens and that person becomes obsessed with having the next drink.
I’m so sorry your was poisoned by fetynal and lost his life. It really hit me when you said, you prayed and prayed for him to stop. I also prayed but fortunately, they got to him on time though he’s brain damaged. He went to long without oxygen. I was screaming at GOD to save him as the paramedics were giving oxygen to him and 4 cans of Narcan. He’s a paraplegic. His brain and mental ability is there but he physically can’t do anything. I feel GOD answered my prayers this way. He can’t do drugs even if he wanted. His brain is clear now. I think even though my son is a paraplegic and I take care of him 24 hours a day, GOD answered my prayers. Not the way that I hoped but he answered them.
Bless his heart 😢 Night terrors are AWFUL! Completely different than nightmares! My son had them. He also is a recovering addict. This could've easily happened to my son! I feel for you sweet mom...I wish I knew what to say... I'm so sorry for your loss...
He was areal handsom young man and lovley toddler ❤ So very sorry for your great loss! God bless you and your family, may He grant you peace at heart in the time to come.
Seth had been going through a pretty tough phase, and I believe that's what it was..a phase. He deserved the chance to correct his issues and learn from his mistakes.
I’m sorry that you lost your son, and he wasn’t able to get the mental health help that he needed to uncover his feelings surrounding his trauma. I know how you feel, I lost my son when he was 16 years old, he took his own life. He didn’t have a drug problem, but he clearly had a mental health problem. I loved him so much. The only thing that gives me comfort is that I know how happy he is now.
I’m so very sorry for the loss of your son. My heart breaks for you, and for him. He went through so much, and fought so hard. Thank you for sharing his story with us.
Childhood trauma... the true gateway drug.
So true!
Absolutely I believe that is half of the reason I became a addict. I’ve been in recovery for 6 years but I’ve had a lot of therapy and counseling to help me deal with childhood trauma
You said a sad mouthful. Think about that MF that molested him. Poor, poor baby.
This!! 🎯
Truth.
This kid had a hell of a life. Not all of it brought on by himself. God bless and help his mother and family.
Agree. Its tragic..
Right. This story hurt my heart, a lot. Praying for this Mom ❤️🙏🏽🌻

Night proud you xx
Sending you so much love & healing energy. I have been sober almost 5 years & I am so incredibly grateful that I got sober before fentanyl was heavy on the scene. I was also addicted to Percocet after many surgeries & doctors over prescribing. My sober life is so amazing that I have zero desire to use again & God willing, one day at a time, I will never will again. ❤✨
It's been a couple of months so, how are you doing?
@@LindaKayHolevas that’s xx the best news keep strong 💪 my sister wasn’t strong 🌹🌹☃️💜💜🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🌲🌲🌲
Seth seems like he had the sweetest soul, may he Rest In Peace.
Rest in peace to Seth Eckman.We've lost too many.This country needs help asap.
Here in Canada as well😢
My best friend growing up was sexually abused throughout her childhood as her mom was not PAYING ATTENTION to her and her stepdad. This mom needs to understand that the majority of his issues came from the sexual abuse. Mothers or fathers who are reading this need to PAY ATTENTION to other family members or ANYONE who is near their child. My friend survived the sexual abuse from her step-dad but psychologically it RUINED HER FOR LIFE. This boy Seth was RUINED at the age of 4 when he was FIRST MOLESTED. PAY ATTENTION PARENTS to your 6th SENSE even if it's a TRUSTED FAMILY MEMBER. KEEP your kids away from DANGER PLEASE.
So the truth . I thought I watched my daughter carefully enough and fortunately she was never molested. And now I just think with my granddaughter, we need to watch her vigilantly. People are sick and children are precious.
Don't trust anyone with your child. The ramifications of sexual abuse are devastating and long-term.
Children are thirty times more likely to be abused by a step parent than their own parent. Not twice or even three times more likely, but thirty times. How many times have we heard or read about a tragic outcome of life before people take notice?
@@lynnfenwick9347. I would have definitely stayed single, if I had known this. Children are the greatest gift in life!
Like my friend... but it was her father... she killed herself on his birthday when she was 50. The abuse was the red thread in her life...
Sad
My son died 3,23,2023 he self medicated because he was in so much pain. He needed a hip replacement but couldn't get into see a physician till April 27th and couldn't see a surgeon till May, so he took a pill that he didn't know was Fentanyl and he died. I miss him so much, finding your only child dead on his bed was so awful. I keep replaying that in my mind, it won't stop. He loved helping people he was a good man he would of been 46 the 28th of April.
Sorry for the loss of your son Nancy. 😢
So sorry for your loss
Nancy I’m so sorry for your loss ,sending you a big hug 🤗
My heart aches for you and your deep loss.
So sorry for you loss Nancy. Life is so unfair
Poor kid, his whole life was a tragedy. Just hit after hit
Millions of people have bad things happen to them throughout their lives but they don't turn to drugs
@swolfe9668 that's amazing for those who can deal with being ra%%! Or abused at such an early age , if your one of them good for you. Maybe you can go around and raise awareness on how to cope . Help prevent anyone from self medicating cos it's everywhere. And it's awful 💔
@@AdrianaHernandez-zr9gdthank you for responding that way, I couldn’t have said it as nice as you.
@@swolfe9668 Careful that high horse you're riding doesn't buck you off.
@@3mexhuas careful that long stick your riding might just come with some cream filling 💦💦💦
Hope the couple who shot him were arrested and face the law.
the brutal thing about losing someone is it's so final, it's over and done with, he'll never come back. be nice to each other. be nice to your friends. you never know who is next
This is happening all over the US. Sorry for your loss and thank you for speaking on the issue.
Yes. Realistic-looking pills are sold on the streets, and it's in powdered street drugs too. If you have friends, or their kids use- warn them.
They're made in China, then to Mexico, then from Mexico
Up here. Dealers use very small amounts of it to increase the high.
@@jaynesegman7847 I speak with my niece and nephew daily about it. I go to CR and have lost many friends the past 10 years.
@@jaynesegman7847 let's give credit where it's do, bug Pharma gets Americans hooked then once the addiction is too bad for big pharmas price rates then they turn to streets. US created a problem and needs to be fed. If it isn't from Mexico it will be from anywhere.
@@USMCasper pay attention to the people who are being poisoned, it is a drug "war"
The father being absent prob played a major role into they he ended up like that. It’s why you see so much of this and violence in the black community. Father abandonment is huge folks!
Thank you for making these. I’m currently a 20 year old college student and I had no idea about fentanyl before I watched these videos. Now I educate all my friends about it.
thank you for watching.
Awwwww you’ll always be a mother no matter what 🥹🥹🥹🥹
The root of so much addiction, and obviously acting out, is because of trauma, and she's right, seems like the system will never break for the people who need it most.
So heartbreaking he was sexually abused!! I watch UA-cam channel- Soft White Underbelly. There are many drug addicts on that channel who were sexually abused and turned to drugs!
The root of ALL addiction.
Victim gang raped , we are the survivors, omg shocking world this guy lived thru , I'm sad for this side of life others don't know or understand,,
@@star.cat. is a CHOICE. there are consequences to choices good and bad
@@JessicaRodriguez-zy5gz learn about addiction and then come back to me 🙄
I dont have parents.
Because they were tough on me for being fat they put me out. I never had anyone love me or be in love with me, I was adopted and my biological family rejected me too. I got tired of abuse, I got into violent relationships and I got tired and turned to alcohol and pills. Then I got hit and dragged by a truck. I sat alone on my couch and decided, I had to make my own family. My children are my life.
I have been sober and raising my fabulous 5 on my own. I dont even date, I dont keep bad company and the other night I was so stressed out I felt like drinking and this series popped up. The feeling has passed and This episode really showed me, my choices effect my children greatly.
You're a great person and a great mom.
Good job!
You are making brilliant decisions ❤
She got it just right “ No one cared enough!” I lost my 22 yr old son he suffered from anxiety and depression Covid was the worst time! I tried so hard get help to no avail. Now he’s gone! My heartfelt condolences to his mom and family.
Sorry for your loss😢
@@lesliefitzgerald2354 Insurance buff! Get a life!!
@@gisselmontero2304 Thank you 🙏🏻
@@sueq8862 Thank you 🙏🏻
Soooo sad 🇨🇦🇨🇦🦋🦋
I'm living this with my 37 year old son! I finally got him off the streets last year and he's doing much better only doing 6 pills a day instead of 30. I feel I have my beautiful son back...mostly! He's sweet and loving instead of angry like he was! He can function for the most part but years of IV fentanyl abuse has taken a toll on him physically. His stomach hurts so bad and he's having temporal lobe seizures but no one cares in the medical field. I have tried many times to get him help to no avail! 😢 God bless all the precious sons and daughters we've lost! 💔 I live in fear every day that he will die soon but at least he's off the streets and if he dies I know I did all I could and he WILL NOT die alone under a bridge!
Has he tried suboxone? Not Methadone!! Idc what anyone says those are two totally different medications.
@amandakay789 He has tried both but he needs in-patient help like a rehab. He gets so sick from withdrawals and even with medicaid I cannot find any resources to help him! We live in Missouri and my beloved St. Louis has become a dangerous zombie zone! Liberal policies are destroying my once beautiful city! I moved my son off the streets and we live out in the county now. Less danger and away from bad influences! Thanks for your concern Amanda! ❤️
❤❤❤
@@tammycrisel8692 This is very sad. Here in Malaysia, there are free Government Drug Rehabilitation Centres. Drug addicts are arrested and remanded for two weeks before being sent to the centre for two years plus two years probation. It's a shorter stay if you volunteer. It's absolutely free. There are different centres for men and women.
The way these nurses & Dr's. Look at you and treat you. When they find out you're an addict. Is just horrible! Sending lots of Prayers and Hugs!
Stay strong and keep praying!!
So sorry for the loss of Seth, may heart aches for you-and for him. Seth was so young, and quite frankly, it seemed like he had such a hard life. ): Being sexually abused as a child? Falling asleep in the freezer? Living in a portable restroom? Being shot? All of that, only to fall into a deeper despair. I can’t even imagine the turmoil he endured. It’s absolutely heartbreaking! Thank you for sharing your story.
Yes, poor kid. All that at such a young age , so sad. I’m so sorry for this mother . 😢
I believe being molested is a huge part of that person's life...
I’m sorry that your son went through so much during his brief time on this earth.
My 22 year old son passed last year from a brain injury. He too was the sweetest cutest smartest. Loved by all. IT HURTS NONE THE LESS, I miss him so much! My heart just breaks for you! So sorry
So sorry for your loss😢
@@gisselmontero2304 Thank you.
I’m so sorry for the loss of your son. How horrible to lose a child. I pray for you and your family.
Scarlett I am so sorry for the loss of your son. Very sad.
I hope his abuser is rotting in jail, that's so tragic...they deserve a millstone around their neck. Poor little boy 😢
Family issues like divorce, child abuse seem to play huge role in all these accidents. Young kids really need love from both parents and parents being present during their young lives is so important.
Absolutely..and remarriage doesn't solve anything
I think when his mom remarried it made it worse, especially when his mom said he felt like he didn’t fit in, that means he didn’t get loved like he should 😢
They need intact stable families and not opportunities for predators to put hands on them at age 4.
Absolutely 💯 🎯
*_R. I. P. Seth ... you have touched my life even though I am a complete stranger ... my heart just shattered over your story ... this is the worst drug crisis EVER !!_*
Yes it’s Awful here in Canada 🇨🇦. My heart breaks for all. There’s no help out there. Sad 🇨🇦🇨🇦🦋😢😢
Crack is a horror, also!
I lost my daughter Candice to fentanyl poisoning and xylazine poisoning on August 19th 2022. I'm a mother and I'm devastated. She she and I live near Philadelphia the crisis there is horrible. I am glad that you educated yourself about this and you're speaking about it publicly I just wish people would make it more available the information that we both possess about these illicit drugs that are killing people. Ca Candice also suffer from mental illness throughout her young child hood and her young adulthood she died at 29 years old. I'm very sad that you lost Seth.
I watch youtube chanel's on Kensington, how horrific is this going to get? Sorry for your loss❤🙏❤
I have heard a lot about xylazine recently, I believe it’s a horse anesthetic. Horrible drug. And I heard it’s especially bad in the Pennsylvania area. I’m so sorry for your loss Cheri. I sincerely pray you find peace and healing and that you can find a new normal of sorts. That you learn to laugh again. God bless you
I just made this comment on the previous story. Tranq is the next big worry. I lost my son to fentanyl years ago. I am so sorry for your loss
Seth had ethereal beauty, such a uniquely exquisite look. I’m so sorry he had to endure unthinkably tragic life experiences that led to him to self destruct. This poor mother did everything humanly possible to help him. She’s doing an amazing job honoring her son by spreading awareness so others lives are saved.
This beautiful boy,. Oh I hope his afterlife is full of nothing but an abundance of pure joy. I'm so sorry.
such a cute kid and as an adult he had really pretty and kind eyes, sorry for your loss, I hope he has found peace and comfort 🙏🏻
So many addicts are just the kindest people ❤❤❤
His momma has really pretty eyes too. I pray for her and her family and for her son to rest in eternal peace.
This boy could have been a very successful model! May he r.i.p. and dear lord please bless his mother.
@@babicakez39 That's for sure. Such a tragic loss on so many levels.
Yea. Bc that would have been a GREAT environment for him. God u broads are SO shallow
One of the worst stories ever, this poor kid just didn't get a break. Good looking young man, so sorry. Thank God, he was a man of God.
This story literally has me screaming out loud!!! He was a beautiful young man with the most stunning blue eyes I’ve ever seen. All of these horrible things happened to him thru no fault of his own. I looked at his tummy and I could almost feel the pain inside my own. His mom did everything she could. I can’t understand how anyone can have sexual feelings towards a child. His abuser killed him at the age of 4. Then the burglars tried to literally kill him. How much can any one person endure? Goodness, my heart just burns for him and his mom. Ugh. So unfair. 😢
He needed help he never got. I hope he is in total peace now.
@@birdiesnotebooks I was molested by my own dad and I can assure you it leads to a lot of self loathing and many times self medicating. I am sober now but that's something that never leaves you
@@ellenhaas3769 that's your opinion
@@ellenhaas3769 there is much more. This life is but a vapor. Eternal life is what we have to look forward to
@@birdiesnotebooks A four year old would not have a recollection nor comprehension of anything. Relax..
Bless this young man's heart. The childhood trauma and abuse, chronic pain and father's absence no doubt played a huge part of this. My younger sister was s3xually abused by our mother's boyfriend starting at age 8, no adults believed her and it continued. Today, my sister has been knee deep in a 10+ year addiction and I do not know where she is or if she's alive. I fully believe the abuse she endured is an engine that lead to where she's been on the streets.
These people are self medicating deep pain away. People reaching for substances deserve compassion.
Rest easy Seth
SA of children is a major problem in this country and whenever I see an extremely angry young one, I always think they may have experienced that.
I'm living this this very moment ...my 26 year old is on life support in icu ...he went down yesterday afternoon ...he did not respond to 4 shots of Narcan or hand compressions by friends till 1st responders arrived managing to use pads to restart his heart ..but he went 15 minutes no oxygen to the brain ....so prayers for my son ..his name is Dion
❤️🙏🕊🧠♥️🧠🕊🙏❤️
So sorry to hear what you're going through right now. We're working on a similar story of a survivor who is progressing on his journey back to life before his overdose. There is always hope.
Praying for you love. I’m so sorry that this has happened to you ❤️
Poor young man,so much suffering in such a short life,I am so sorry for his loss ,tragic
Such a beautiful young man😢 why is the world so cruel
We found my son in front of our house on November 23th 2018 and he died on November 25th because he was brain dead. All because of Fentanyl . I know who gave it to him and nothing is done.
Nobody does anything I have text messages I showed to police and nothing is done.
I miss him every day !❤
So true sorry for your loss Same here 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🦋
The way hospitals treated people during Covid was criminal.
The part where you said you would love him more rather than discipline or try to teach him is where you would redo really got to me, I'm a tough love mom to my oldest & it really showed me I need to soften up with him, he'll be 14 this year, really great kid but from a broken home, dad hasn't been around & it's easy for kids to search to fill that void. Praying for us all 🙏🙏
We are loosing so many beautiful people, so many, so young. Its heartbreaking. I feel like i want to cry for every parent on these posts. I pray i wont be on here one day talking about my daughter. 😭🙏😥
Beautiful boy, hope the abuser was convicted. Thank you for sharing.
Heart breaking to lose your only child when you have loved soo much only to see them pass away from one bad decision
Seth’s life was a tragedy that ended in tragedy.
Thank you for sharing Seth’s life, he mattered
Thank you for sharing your story. As a nurse, it hurts my heart to hear how he was treated while in the hospital during the pandemic. Not only did he have to deal with the trauma of being shot, he didn't deserve to be talked to in the manner he was by what I assume were the healthcare workers.
My sincere condolences to you on the loss of your son. I agree with you, God has him at peace now. 💜
I agree. As a nurse too, that behavior is unacceptable. We DO care but limited in ways to help treat. It’s all politics, which is not cool!
As a chronic pain patient, sadly people like me are treated horribly by all medical personnel, including nurses! I'm sure you two are sweet and compassionate but unfortunately that's not the status quo 😔
@@meeeeeeeeeeeep I became disabled in 2015 when I picked up a teenager that was coding and my neck vertebrae went in the opposite direction that I was moving. I was truly amazed at the way I was treated by some medical personnel that found out I was on chronic pain meds. I do understand where you're coming from, but unfortunately there are those types of medical people out there. I'm sorry you were treated so badly.
Seth's story is so heartbreaking. God did answer your prayers. Seth is with him and suffers no more. RIP 🥀.
My son went through the same thing but he was shot 3 different times and the last one he was killed.And my son was on pills and weed just like your son.I pray for your strength and u have my deepest condolences.🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
My prayers and empathy go out to you! I am a retired nurse and the good mental health support we used to have years ago is no longer and it is sad!!! I am so happy that you have God in your life!
Heartbreaking. That poor kid lived through so much
I’m so sorry for your loss. You don’t have to feel like your son was the villain, they are handing out pills everywhere and not offering therapy long term or teaching them coping skills. My father was an addict because of something that happened to him as a child in Catholic school and he never got the help he needed. Sending prayers to you .
Help starts at home no matter the cost
Seth was an incredibly beautiful young man who suffered so much.
I really hope he's at peace now x
Not just Texas!! AMERICA HAS THE WORST HEALTHCARE SYSTEM IN THE WORLD!!! AND MOREOVER, OUR *MENTAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM HAS BEEN BROKEN SINCE THE 1960'S. Heartbreaking testimony.
Same here 🇨🇦🇨🇦🙏🙏🦋🦋🦋
Rich Ppl from all over the world come for our specialists’ care.
Your testimony really helped me, especially ' I answered your prayer, just not in the way you expected.'
A series of unfortunate events played a role in shaping his destiny. Mom, you certainly worked hard to get your son right. I'm sorry it had to end like that. The saddest thing ever when a mother loses their child 😢
You can see where he got his eyes from. Loosing a child is very hard. Bless you and yours. May God keep you
Addicted to these. Never stop posting them please. Thanks for helping me get sober!
Appreciate your comments. We're developing a series of stories about recovery you might find helpful. We've completed two stories so far, more are coming. Here's a link - ua-cam.com/play/PLdCPA32W_p39Z8hi7xSIX3Fkqmhd7mRzj.html
Abandoned by their father at ages 12 & 13 (he didn’t even say goodbye), both my sons & I crashed into mental & emotional chaos. Within 2 years the older boy was in juvenile court. Both his father & I attended. Nightmare.
At the end the PROSECUTOR took me aside into a private room & said, “You need an attorney.” Me?? “You mean I need to hire a private attorney for my son?” “No. YOU need an attorney. I can’t say more & I’m not supposed to even say this. But YOU need an attorney.”
I obeyed. Without my attorney, my son never would have got over 2 months in the state adolescent mental health hospital. He was in a continual rage & becoming violent. He needed that hospital - but he never would have had it “court ordered” without my attorney. Sad, but true.
The hospital team gave him discipline, therapy & skills to deal with his anger. It wasn’t easy; we had rough patches. But without that long hospital stay, he would have gone from bad to worse. I’m forever grateful.
He’s grown up now: 2 Master’s degrees, great wife, daughter, loves his job & owns a home.
Nip it in the bud. Get help as early as possible. The longer you let it go, the harder it is to get out of the pain. If docs, hospitals, recover centers are dismissing you, get an attorney! They’re scared of lawyers, scared of being sued. Suddenly they’re eager to do the right thing. Whatever it takes. Do it.
My heart goes out to Seth and Seth's mother, this is very heartbreaking, I had tears in my eyes. I am so Sorry Seth this happened to you. God knows you were a good young man. God Knows your heart. You will Never be Forgotten Seth.
Indeed, this is one of the saddest fentanyl poisoning stories so far. He had to endure more trauma & suffering in his short life than most people have to in 80 years of lifetime.
This guy lived a hard life…. My heart breaks for him. I’m so sorry to the mother❤
Oh Mother of God. I lost my boy with 22. Have no words for it.
I’m so sorry for your loss of your son, Seth. You’re in my prayers.
He was failed by so many people that should have helped him. His whole life seemed to be the biggest struggle. This poor soul, this beautiful boy let down by everyone in his life. He is in a much better place now, in the arms of his past loved ones. Rest in peace Seth. You deserved much better🙏🏼
His mother was there for him to the end.
@@3mexhuasI don't believe that
Thank you for your advocacy. You are helping others by reaching out and speaking up. Prayers for you and your family.
Beautiful young man!! Prayers for the family!!
Beautiful momma and beautiful son. I'm so sorry for what you and Seth went through. You did the best you could, momma. God comfort you each day in knowing your baby is in heaven with no more pain or addiction. God put his angels' wings around you with peace and comfort. RIP Seth. You are loved and missed.
Seth looks just like his mother. Eyes to the soul❤️ I hope she finds peace, I know Seth finally has.
She did not say how the sexual abuse happened if he was living with her or how he became addicted to drugs. She said he was kicked out of her house. I'm not sure tough love was the right thing for him. She said he was compassionate and then told of his anger issues. Some of the story does not make sense.
Someone can be compassionate and have anger issues. One doesn't necessarily cancel out the other.
She was not a good mother
@@MunchkinBoy0308I don’t think she was a bad mother but I think she thought touch love was the only way for her to parent. He needed more empathy when it came to his discipline. Some children do better with tough love, but some need more of a gentle approach.
Young man you had a rough beginning, You didn't deserve this you was a handsome young male. I'm so sorry you couldn't see past your pain. I am so sorry Rest in Heaven I hope your at peace with the love of our lord and savior. Sleep in Peace.
Such a beautiful family. Beautiful boy. Beautiful mom. Fentanyl has no “type”. Anyone can be a victim. It is so unfair. What a loss. I’m so sorry for you all. This is just horrible.
@@ryanblanchard2508 Synthetic fentanyl comes from China. It is then manufactured into these fake pills in Mexico and comes up into the United States. It's all a plan. Thinning of the herd. They're also spying on Americans via TikTok, and slowly taking over this country without firing a single shot.
The president doesn't care. He's got dementia and the government/media wants you to be more worried about race and being confused about your genitals then what's really going on. We're screwed.
It's not just Texas. The lack of mental health treatment is all over the US. Please take care of yourself. I cannot imagine your loss. Many blessings to you and your family.
Correct, it isn't just Texas. We're developing plans to shoot stories in California, New York, Florida, and other locations. We receive requests from all over the country to create stories. We're a small production company and the challenge for us is always finding funding. The films in this series are self-funded, and the only source we have other than our own pockets is the bit of revenue the UA-cam ads generate. It isn't much but it is enough to continue producing. Every film in the series represents 6-8 hours of work or more.
The amount of broken families and sexual abuse in this country is an epidemic that is resulting in major addictions. Like it or not, the numbers don’t lie. Addiction is the devil. Rest easy, Seth, you had a life not many could have made it through. I’m sorry life was so hard.
🎯
What a beautiful young man😢
What a tragic life...wow. My heart is broken just hearing his story....
Of all the stories I've seen on this channel. This is the one that has hit me. Seth was a beautiful baby boy. A handsome young man. I'm so sorry my prayers go to Seth's mother. I am so sorry 😢. You are still a mom and will forever be.
I am sorry for your loss. This is horrrific what is happening to our young people.
Thank you for everything y'all do.Letting these parents tell their stories and bringing awareness to the Fentanyl crisis.Y'all are doing more than our own President and Congress.Keep up the work because we appreciate it.Your channel is such a blessing.❤
We need compassion. I am so sad to hear your son had to go through that hard road. I am so sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing…
Tuff love does not work for many ...a brilliant book recommended by a mom who lost her 17 year old , but Said she wish she d have had this book earlier befor drug use began ...the book is called "BEYOND ADDICTION "
I’m so sorry for your loss. This one hit me hard because I’m in Houston and worked in the Bacliff area and lived in the Clear Lake area.
The callous’s attitudes you and your son were met with just angers me and makes me sad.
Your strength is inspiring.
Lifting you up in prayer.
How profound.. that God answered her prayers just not in the way that she wanted. Wow! That’s deep. I’m sorry for your loss. But God took your son to a place where he is free from PTSD and no more stomach pain or physical pain yearning for terrible drugs. I pray that your son is at peace in Jesus’s arms. ❤
God doesn’t always give us what we want. He always gives us what we need. ❤
@@Whippy99 you are 100% correct 🙌
He is ❤
So raw, honest, open and transparent. People need to hear the hard truth about individuals who live with this disease. I work with individuals with substance use disorders. Thank you for sharing your story. Most individuals who live with addiction also live with mental illness and do self medicate. There is so much stigma associated with these two diseases. The first time we try a substance it is a choice, but when addiction kicks in, it is no longer a choice. Some people can drink a beer and be ok. The next person may have a beer and the brain instantly awakens and that person becomes obsessed with having the next drink.
I’m so sorry your was poisoned by fetynal and lost his life. It really hit me when you said, you prayed and prayed for him to stop. I also prayed but fortunately, they got to him on time though he’s brain damaged. He went to long without oxygen. I was screaming at GOD to save him as the paramedics were giving oxygen to him and 4 cans of Narcan. He’s a paraplegic. His brain and mental ability is there but he physically can’t do anything. I feel GOD answered my prayers this way. He can’t do drugs even if he wanted. His brain is clear now. I think even though my son is a paraplegic and I take care of him 24 hours a day, GOD answered my prayers. Not the way that I hoped but he answered them.
Your son does have beautiful eyes. I'm so sorry for your loss. I, too, am trying to warn my kids and grandkids regarding street fentenyl poisoning
Thank You for Sharing His Story...Bless Him so Sad He lost His Life over this Terrible Epidemic. Prayers for Your Family
So handsome and such a terrible loss. God bless your heart sweet lady.
Im a single mom divorced when my girls were toddlers. I never allowed a new man in the house to protect my girls
I'm so sorry for the loss of Seth. Mental illness is not taken seriously especially in young people. RIP Seth.🇬🇧🙏
Bless his heart 😢 Night terrors are AWFUL! Completely different than nightmares! My son had them. He also is a recovering addict. This could've easily happened to my son! I feel for you sweet mom...I wish I knew what to say...
I'm so sorry for your loss...
He was areal handsom young man and lovley toddler ❤ So very sorry for your great loss! God bless you and your family, may He grant you peace at heart in the time to come.
Seth went through a lot and I’m sorry for your loss. ❤😢
Seth had been going through a pretty tough phase, and I believe that's what it was..a phase. He deserved the chance to correct his issues and learn from his mistakes.
Thank you for sharing! He sounds like a compassionate soul gone too soon!😢
I'm so sorry you lost your Seth. No mom deserves that loss. Bless you for your strength to go on and help others. Seth would have been proud of you.
My youngest son had a friend staying at his house he got fentanyl poisoning. My son saved his life thank God!!
I’m sorry that you lost your son, and he wasn’t able to get the mental health help that he needed to uncover his feelings surrounding his trauma. I know how you feel, I lost my son when he was 16 years old, he took his own life. He didn’t have a drug problem, but he clearly had a mental health problem. I loved him so much. The only thing that gives me comfort is that I know how happy he is now.
poor kid. had to deal with that... he never had a chance. some people should have never had children.
This guy had a very caring, loving mom who did everything she could possibly do.
Ugh RIP. What beautiful eyes he had, yet so much pain inside. No more suffering, sleep in peace🕊️
This is another heartbreaking loss of a young person. I’m so thankful my son, after 15 years, came out on the other side. I am so sorry for your loss.
I’m so very sorry for the loss of your son. My heart breaks for you, and for him. He went through so much, and fought so hard. Thank you for sharing his story with us.
What a sad life for a human being. Hope he is resting well in the arms of God.
