It breaks my heart to see so many young people struggle with mental illness and substance abuse and not be able to get the help they need.
You can’t quit cold turkey it doesn’t work for most people.
All my years of working with addicts I’ve learned that.

Honestly too young to pass away. I hope that his family will be able to deal with this family member well. Death honestly sucks no matter who it is!

This is very sad. He was so young and clearly was fighting with his inner demons. This is why mental health should be taken seriously and not overlooked, especially in the young and vulnerable.

"Tik Tok star".. ?! For what?? Our society is going downhill fast.

So handsome and you can tell he was such a bright kid that went down some wrong paths. Drugs mess with your mental health incredibly! Turning to drug if you are already having low moments /depression... Its its only going to make it worse. And when you quit... Cold turkey like he said... That in itself is going to bring your mentally down to its lowest point. Your hormones are going to be all over the place and also your dopamine and serotonin levels down like crazy so you're going to feel worse then ever until they level back out.
This breaks my heart. My son who is 21 is struggling with mental health and drug problems too... I lwoke up the other day to my son on the couch and I thought he was dead right there in front of me! He was limp and no matter what I did... He was not not responding in any way. Finally after about 15 minutes... I got a moment from him. Police, firemen and EMTs all got there very quick...
I never my son! But I just feel like we're on borrowed time 😔

Too young to have lost him, praying for his Family, friends, and etc.. CHECK ON YOUR FRIENDS, INCLUDING THE ONES YOU’D CALL STRONG AND, OR HAPPY. Stay safe everyone.

PARENTS!!!! Please KNOW your child! Keep on them in a loving, accepting, and unconditional way. I am not blaming this young man’s parents; it’s just that we are seeing so many young people going through such darkness. It breaks my heart. God bless this young man, and his loved ones.

Tic tok really needs to be banned and dissolved and cease to exist.

[lornab]

My sympathies to his family, a terrible loss he was so young!

[punkyoliverio]

We need something to live for, truly live for in order to stay away from substances and destructive behavior.
