Im an addict named Logan as well, and i have a younger sister who’s suffered from my addiction, real eye opener, i have 5 months clean now and fentanyl has no control over my life anymore

[HP-fnbo]

What a lovely woman. She talked about herself by telling us about the people she loves and the compassion she has for them.

[TheAndred]

Her ability to naturally tell her story brings you into how much she loves her brother through the worst and best . Her conscious scope just dragged me into her love and lost .

[lindasacks]

This woman's articulation skills are off the charts. I lost my son to an overdose almost 5 years ago. Its some kind of heart breaking pain that will never go away.

[lionelscarf]

This is ingenious, hearing from the people who are affected by addicts is a great new perspective into the difficulties and issues that families have to deal with

[ldravland]

I found my brother dead of an overdose in 2020. This is the story of so many of us. Thank you for sharing. Not enough people do

[miles]

She is phenomenal. One of the best interviews on this page. I’m glad to see she is leading a positive life.

[beefu]

This is good for addicts to see. Life doesn't end if you OD. It continues to haunt the people who loved you.

[Char-kdog]

To speak so eloquently about something so raw and painful is truly remarkable. I can only hope that this lady decides to go on to help others, to learn to express their pain and grief in the way she has here. This is such a gift - most likely a gift from her dear brother ❤️

Because many addicts view the videos on this channel, I think more of these videos are necessary. There are not many platforms that give the family & friends affected by addiction, a voice. Sometimes there is a sigh of relief that the addict is not struggling anymore but as she says, he had so much more life to live. RIP Logan & may his friends & family continue to grow through this process 🙏

[sarahevans]

Our son died the same way Allisons brother died. He has four siblings and they all have struggled. One son was estranged from nathan and has had a hard time moving forward. It brought our family closer but we're all still trying to move forward while keeping Nathans memory alive. Nothing is worse than losing a child. Your world fractures.

[lindseysellers]

What a wonderful sister. You can see how much she loved her brother.

[christinemeyers]

Girl, I feel you so much. I sincerely never write comments, but your story struck me. I finally got the call too. It was my dad. He was at a homeless shelter. Unfortunately, I still worry daily about my mother and sister. My mother is still street based homeless, and my sister continues to not do so well between her addictions and mental health issues. I wish you well girl. I know it's not easy. I give you major props for getting up here and talking about it with so many people. You never know who you will touch. xoxo

I also lost my brother April 2024. My story is an actual copy of Alison's. All her thoughts, all the things that they gone through... I have a son who is a copy paste of my brother. He loved my son so much... Life is so unfair... I wish you could be here my love! I miss you so much! I love you forever with all my soul!!!

[BuddhatheRockstar]

She had such a positive message. Her perspective on everything her brother went through was from a very loving place. No judgment.

[twinpyramid]

The sincerity in her voice made me feel her pain, you can tell when a person really wants better for someone else. Allison became selfless put her life to the side numerous times for her brothers, a true testament of unconditional love💯

[tracywilliamsliterature]

Want to send love & respect to Allison from the UK. I was first prescribed opioid pills in L.A... then a 20 year addiction. I am now 5 months clean. Never really understood why my family were in such a panic about my addictions. Listening to Allison opened up a new perspective. Best wishes.xx

[Indigochvld]

It's insane how the sibling of an addict describes them so perfectly than the addict alone. It's so beautiful how family understands the person.

[wendyzeigler]

What a well spoken person. I was mesmerized by her story due to her delivery. Thanks Mark.

[callmebyurname]

He really needs to try & get more of these videos with the family of someone addicted. Because the love ones suffered greatly too
