My thing is why going into a situation that you know your not comfortable knowing it’s not for you and give up and put other people at risk shouldn’t have went in there in the first place!

[Berm_Blaster]

People that haven’t experienced fentanyl withdrawal will never understand how brutal it is. Doesn’t matter how tough you are you will end up in the same situation. Don’t touch it, it will grab ahold of you after first use

Jacob was completely right, the moment he walked in everybody thinking that white boy is 12, all of a sudden there’s mics in the cell. He was CAUGHT. I’m just glad he knew it 😂

[Karen-zrgf]

Jacob will be the first to snitch if you were to get caught with him doing something illegal trust me lol 😂 smh

[zeleotkriddik]

"Ya but I'm not going back in there...." dude folded like a peice a paper

[rachelroberts]

Why did the camera crew show up?😂 They're sloppy AF 😅

[Rage]

Jacob tapped because he couldn't handle it, there was no one pointing him out. Sadly his isn't even the worst tap out in the shows history.

[msaintjo]

Jacob definitely ain’t built to the joint. He noped it real quick 😅

[Berm_Blaster]

In the first 15 minutes Jacob was like ITS COLD IN HERE 🙏🏼 ITS COLD IN HERE 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 ITS COLD IN HERE!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I was on methadone when I got locked up. I was locked up after court scheduled me on a Saturday, showed up, they were closed. Came Monday, they locked me up even with the paperwork…anyway, they locked me up. Wouldn’t give me my prescribed methadone and I did not sleep for the first 16 days. Did not eat anything but bread and some ramen. I was asking my cell mate to jump me just I could feel anything else but the withdrawal. I have ptsd from that stint. They do not care and because you’re in withdrawal, everyone assumes it’s for dope or street opiates and not prescription. They treat you like trash. I’m so thankful for my bed, clean water, the ability to shower when I want, great food, real medical care, and my family. We are blessed to have our freedom.

As I've gotten older, I've come to realize that trusting your gut, and not folding to emotional blackmail is actually a strength.

She's moaning because opiate withdraws are horrible and make you feel like you can't sit still. Literally, this feeling overcomes your arms and your legs and your neck, and it forces you to move around like that. The moaning is her annoyance with it because it just goes on and on and on for a few days. at least. And that's just one symptom of withdraw. Cold sweats, uncontrollable bowel movements, moderate to severe pain in different areas, inability to sleep, nausea, etc.

[madmattchicago]

Jacob is a selfish, coward. Knowing he was putting other participants at risk and that he could have stayed in his cell for a few hours while everyone else's cells were also on lock-down and he STILL insisted on leaving immediately. I mean a superhero he is not.

[jefftaylor]

That's a rough life to get over ..I got tired of life and tried killing myself over 15 years with crack coke and meth and quit it cold turkey thank God for the strength to quit been clean ever since and just found out 2 months ago I have a 35 yr old son so yes thank God and may these people get help they need and deserve

[elionadvancing]

That chick uas no compassion. She cant handle someone else being sick

[jesseanzures]

It's already better than last season. Last season was a huge train wreck

[dmonkeylife]

Jacob is scared shitless lol. Roommate was just pushing his rack

[Hurlevent]

in my country (Françe) we would never put an addict in jail, let him go through withdrawal without sibstitute medicine. is it usual not to do that in the US?

[kimrollins]

Why would you go in there in the first place? Ridiculous. If you don’t have to go in there who wants to go in there all the money in the world could be with that nope nope nope

[Macaroni-cp]

This kills me how you going to feel suspicious but look suspicious as soon as you have the camera people in there.
