When they recorded my story I didn't realize how far it would reach. It's an honor to share my experience. I hope someone can relate to this and see that life does get better. There's no telling how far we can go in the universe when we just stop fighting and get some help. Good vibes to you all!

LSD can be a turnaround drug sometimes.

"Didn't get great grades in school, just A's and B's"...….lmao

Acid changed this guy's life too. Wow. Miracle drug.

I had 10 Psilocybin containing mushrooms ceremonies, it took opioid addiction away from me. It made me see things differently. 5 years later.
I’m now a commercial pilot.

"It's okay to be an addict, it's okay to be on drugs, but its time to change the behaviour.
You don't know what youre doing. You don't know what you need.
You gotta ask for help."

LSD, Mushrooms and MDMA are beneficial drugs when used responsibly. MDMA stopped me from committing suicide, and like Andrew, LSD has taught me things about myself that I would've never imagined. Andrew and I have a few distinct similarities, including our name.

Weed isn’t a gateway drug for everyone, but for some people it can be.

A certain drug can turn people away from drugs. Acid can be a fun time but it can also end up with you in the fetal position crying because you have taken your whole life for granted

[m.ccheddarbox]

Im in recovery... Most people in my life didnt know I was shooting dope.. I had a "normal" life. That made it very hard to get help.

[imayhaveanunbelievablysmal]

This must’ve been hard man... my family still don’t know, but I’ve been clean for 4 years so there’s not much point of telling them.

Andrew's story made me to realize that there are some people facing a lot of things without anybody knowing. Thanks to God that Andrew was able to come out strong. Thanks to detox for sharing this video.

[Patricia-ukhv]

It's encouraging that Andrew made a commitment to sober living and is at a much better place now. I hope his story motivates more addicts to turn over a new leaf.

[willcollins]

Thanks for sharing the story. I've stopped all hard drugs for six months now. It's tough but these uploads help a lot.

I had the same experience with mushrooms. Extremely depressed and discontent with my life. 1 year later, complete 180 turnaround. I only drank but luckily I took shrooms early in my drinking career. Stopped me cold, that very night. I refuse to touch alcohol unless it’s for a very special occasion.

[selfsaid]

Anyone els who’s watching this have smoked weed for awhile and not even thought of taking a pill?

[folorunshoseun]

I can say that people around are not sensitive enough to discover that but as God will have it, you actually opted for recovery. Congratulations to you bro.

[Evan-rlrn]

Stick to weed and psychedelics, stay far far away from opiates. Thats what I do.
