Over 3 years clean and sober after a 10+year addiction struggle with oxy, percs, heroin and fentanyl...I was one of the lucky ones

My daughter committed suicide several years ago & I found her hanging in her closet! Impossible to get over it! You can only go through it.😔

“I couldn’t save mine, but hopefully I can save yours”. Those words she ended on, really choked me up. Thank you for sharing your story.

My mom was also super naive about drugs. I quietly became a hard-core alcohol at 19, tried to take my life several times bcus I felt so depressed and trapped in addiction. I was genetically predisposed from my father's side. My father had died from opiate addiction when I was 6 years old. Im 35 and 3 years sober 💗 I did the inner work, I've made it through, and I will never drink again.

I lost 2 of my children to fentanyl poisoning, Andy and Adam were 15.5 years apart in age but exactly alike each other. Andy was 29.5 years old when he passed away January 16th of 2020. Adam found him that day when he got home from school. I found Adam slumped over on the floor in his room, his face in a pool of vomit and blood, blue and frozen. May 21st 2023. Adam sat with me that night before telling me he loved me very much, he was sorry for the worry he had been since Andy passed away, Adam was cutting himself severely, overdosed 4 times in the 6 months before he passed away. He was telling me goodbye and I didn't know it. 😢. My heart is beyond shattered, as I am sure you 💔 know exactly how I feel. Adam was 17, both of them were so smart, would do anything for anyone, but they were taken from me forever due to the murder pill that is showing up in everything...very sorry for your loss, hugs to you from Indianapolis, Indiana USA 🇺🇸 from a mom of boys gone far too soon 😢

I absolutely respect how this beautiful Mama doesn’t sugar coat her story. Or try to make excuses. She told it like it is. Sincere condolences for the loss of your precious sons. God bless your family.🥰🙏🏼🥰

People Pleasers almost always end up self-destructive because they disregard their own emotional and mental health to make everybody happy.

To suffer the loss of twins to fentanyl is simply unimaginable as a mother 💔

[lucyhanna]

At one stage this lady had two drug addicted sons, a husband who had suffered several strokes and keeping down a job. The burdens she had to bear were so heavy. After all her suffering she is helping others by telling her story.

[vgoogleuser]

God keep this mom wrapped in your embrace. May she continue educating families and preventing futher suffering. Praying for her and her family. 🙏 ❤️

I tried quitting I was in a constant state of quitting for years. I hated it I didn’t even wanna get high. I just couldn’t function because of withdrawal so I was always taking just a little bit, so I wouldn’t get sick. But being in a constant state of withdrawal for years. Couldn’t eat couldn’t sleep wasn’t feeling well. I got so sick of it. I eventually paid 50 grand to go to rehab. Which I had to save up for. Everything I tried everything I did nothing worked. I finally got so desperate i decided to try Jesus I just threw myself on the ground and said “Jesus you see me if you do not intervene I’m going to die.” I didn’t feel a change in that moment, but the next morning I woke up and I’ve never been the same since. Im clean. I can’t believe I just said that. Yeah there’s no drugs in my system. It’s almost too good to be true but it’s all thanks to God. Everyone I went to rehab with is still using. And it’s been four years I’m the only one of the whole group that’s clean. Jesus is free to anyone and He is our only help. Since i first came to Christ, Jesus has done many other things for me things that I thought were impossible. I’m telling anyone right now. What do you have to lose? It takes one minute to ask. I always wonder what my life would’ve been like if I had come to Jesus sooner. and I don’t care what your problem is if it’s something completely different, Jesus is the answer for any problem. I’ve only been Christian for four years. And my life is unrecognizable I love life I went from wishing I was never born every day to loving life in just a couple years.

My son died from fentanyl when he was given “something” for an extremely painful abscess tooth. He was not a user or a drinker. He trusted the wrong person. Fentanyl is not just killing those with addictions. It is heartbreaking to hear these stories.

[dollymando]

This poor woman. Just illustrates the frustrating lack of help for mental health and addiction

[lyncollins]

I lost my son 6yrs ago on his 49th birthday. None of us saw it coming .Miss him everyday .You never get over losing a child whatever age 😢Why he chose that day I will never know 😢

[judybroshears]

My heart is broken for this precious mother.

[takeitbreezy]

Oh Mama, I just want to hug you.

Thank you to every person who tells their child’s story on this channel. I hope you all know how incredibly meaningful it is.

[kayjay]

My mommy soul is shattered on the floor for all of you who have lost a child. 😢

[jiid]

That last line just absolutely broke my heart, “I couldn’t save mine, but hopefully I can save yours” 😭

[reneemartin]

I know the feeling. I lost my baby son 3 years ago this month, and my oldest son just went through detox, and he’s going to rehab on Monday. It’s the most devastating thing a parent can go through. My sons weren’t thugs, they are both highly intelligent, handsome, kind, funny guys. People should be aware, it can happen to anyone. And I mean, anyone. And it’s a pain you never want to go through. There should be funding all over this country for help.

When a mother cries, all the mothers in the world cry too. 💔
