    My uncle got off of fent. About 5 times. The 6th time he tried to stop and relapsed, he ended his journey behind a walmart dumpster. He was an incredibly smart person, he just made a mistake. Get help guys. We will miss him forever

    &apos;you will never feel this good again&apos; hits <i>so hard.</i> <br><br>That was the most powerful, honest and comprehensive argument I&apos;ve ever heard on why hard drugs are a bad idea. <br><br>Growing up we just hear &apos;is bad, forbidden&apos;, which to the right age group, could just as well have been said as a dare.<br><br>But knowing you will have a lifetime peak feelgood experience, that can never be had again, and to which you will now measure everything else in your life... Honestly that sounded absolutely terrifying.<br><br>This video should be pinned to the top of YouTube, and left there.

    I’m addicted to Fentanyl now. Have been for years. These kinds of videos are hard to watch. When it comes down to it, some days it easier to pretend everything is normal even when it isn’t. Looking in the mirror is hard. I’ve tried to get clean so many times. But for anyone who wasn’t already aware/convinced, Opioid withdrawal (especially fentanyl) is the most hellish thing I have ever experienced. It’ll sap every moral, strength, emotion, and piece of who you are out of you. Where you’ll do anything to get well. I’ve never had a worse physical sensation in my life. My muscles feeling like they’re tying knots around my bones until they’re about crack, nausea so bad that you keep dry heaving even when you have nothing left, drenched in more sweat than you’d even think possible. Both ends burning like acid, and so low and suicidal you’d do anything to make it stop. I want everyone to know, stopping isn’t easy. Not even close. It’s the hardest thing most people will have to do in their lives. And I am so so proud of anyone and all of you who have made it out the other side. You give me strength, and hope that someday it’ll be different.<br><br><br>EDIT: Wow, this blew up. I’ve never had so many people read anything I’ve ever said let alone this. Thank you all so much. I’m posting this as comment and edit, so forgive the possible redundancy. I just wanted to say thanks. <br><br>Oh my god, I just saw all of this. I had my notifications turned off because of harassment on an H3 video (long story). Thank you all so much for your kind words. I’ve recently been in talks with a sober living home and rehab facility. I’ve been feeling really alone lately and it means the world to me. Life the way I’ve living it has come with a lot of stigma and shame. It’s hard to talk to others about all of this. This has made me feel so much hope and lot less scared. I’ll keep all of you in mind when things get hard and I feel alone. I’m done letting it rob my life from any more. ❤️<br><br>Update 2:<br>Hey, another update I&apos;m gonna provide as a comment and as an update. It&apos;s been a really tough 10 months. Things didn&apos;t work out exactly as planned, but I&apos;m still keeping it with it. Zylazine came to my area and it&apos;s been a nightmare. I literally go into treatment today. I&apos;ve been using all of your words as motivation when things got really bad and I&apos;ll especially be using them over the next couple weeks. Thank you all of you. I have never had this many people ever talk to, read, or care about anything I&apos;ve said. Not even remotely. You all have made a man feel so much less alone and in the hardest time in my life. Thank you for that. ❤️

    I was found OD’d in a dark parking lot by pure chance back in 2015 and I never look back. I feel very lucky to be alive since that day, it’s been 10 years 🎉

    As an addict myself, one important thing to stress is that you will never be the same again after the first time you&apos;ve been addicted. Addiction isn&apos;t something you heal from and then it&apos;s gone. Every moment of stress and sorrow and grief in your life will come with an extreme urge to go back to the drug. This will never go away.
