[@nickigirlaz7735]

After learning of BJ's recent death it really makes you realizing that addiction issues can literally annihilate entire families. The Carter Family story is so tragic. It is also no coincidence that her and Nick were the only two siblings who sought counseling and help. Now, they are the last two of five siblings remaining alive. It's just so heartbreaking! 💔

[@liannewrites]

I am so sorry to hear that Bobbie Jean also passed on (2023) after Leslie (2012) and Aaron (2022). Sending heartfelt prayers for the Carters.

Everything she said is true. It must have been very hard for her to be so open about this. No one ever wants to think their parents did something bad. But she’s right. Their parents failed all those kids and they didn’t have the tools. Hoping Angel and the rest of her living siblings can break the cycle for their kids

Angel should start a podcast. She understands so many things on such a deep and inherent level. I'm so glad I happened to see this. I'm just over a year in recovery.. struggling badly.. and knowing that I need to initiate therapy. I feel like this was the sign I needed. My deepest respects to Angel. This would make Aaron so happy 🙏

[@kristenbrookeemdrtherapist]

I’m an EMDR trauma therapist and I haven’t ever commented like this before but I just wanted to encourage you to reach out to find a therapist. Recovery cannot be dependent on willpower because EVERYONE will run out of willpower at some point. Recovery requires healing from the pain you were mitigating with substances. Through true healing, you will find freedom. Freedom cannot be taken from you and is not reliant on your strength and willpower so freedom is the way to a forever recovery. I’m biased and think that EMDR coupled with somatic based trauma therapy is the way to heal and find freedom but any support from a licensed therapist to help you start to heal is a BEAUTIFUL way to honor yourself and your recovery. I know it takes courage to find a therapist and sometimes it takes a while to find a therapist who is a good fit for you but you’ve already done something much harder that takes WAY more courage when you began your recovery so you can absolutely do this too. 💛💛💛 *edited for autocorrect issues😂

[@HannahDisponett]

@@isabelamesquita9666, it's called "tough love"...one of the hardest things to do is to turn your back on someone you love but in order them to to realize they need help, it has to be done...knowing a loved one needs help is not enough...the addict themselves has to want it. I think Aaron realized he was spiraling and needed/wanted to get help but i realized too late.

[@isabelamesquita9666]

@@HannahDisponett but on his lives he said he had to approach Dr. Phil to get the help he needed, not Nick because he had cut him off. I think they had some other deep issues. Like Nick accused Aaron of trying to steal his girlfriend Paris Hilton at the time, they never really got along during Aaron's teenage years and adult life

I am glad Angel is speaking out and I am sure Aaron would be very proud of her like she says.

Thanks to Angel for being so open, honest, and real about this. Her and her siblings tried to help Aaron and he didn't want it. They did what was best for them and distanced themselves from Aaron when he wouldn't face his issues. If you know an active addict and they aren't pissed at you.. it means you're enabling them.

[@winter23987]

Angel is so well spoken and she really does speak honestly and openly. I was a fan of Aaron and still listen to his music. My heart really does break for what has happened to them all. Let's all not remember the Aaron of the last few years and remember who he was and his heart and light before addiction. You can see the glimmers of the true Aaron in different interviews and his talent as a singer and music producer producing his own music.

[@timmyrahman4803]

She's very insightful and strong with everything she's experienced in her life, she'll definitely be saving the lives of many young people with the work she doing on mental health and addiction. I pray for her healing.

[@JaredMerlin]

Despite Aaron's addiction, I will always remember his passion for his music. Most videos of Aaron, I saw were him on his keyboard or in a studio. At least he felt safe in the musical world. That's something. Such a sad and tragic end to such a young soul. I'm 54 yo, I lost my younger brother a few years ago and my dad. All I have left is my elderly mom. Once she's gone, I will be left alone. My family will be gone but as long as I live, their legacies will live on and I will keep their memories alive until I myself am gone. Angel, stay strong. So sorry for your losses.

It’s all down to the parents. No kids were worked harder than the Osmonds. Even though life was hard, they had a very solid, respectable, united family base.

Well spoken Angel, you will be a powerful advocate.

Angel is so strong to be willing to open up about this publicly. It must’ve been really hard for her. She lost 2 siblings but also one of them was her twin. The part about generational trauma & cycles repeating itself is so spot-on. The same thing is going to happen to Prince if things don’t change.

Aaron came from a broken home. Addiction is so hard to escape from especially when it is everywhere and sadly He couldn't escape from it. And Mental Health is real. I wish them healing and peace. All the best to his family. May he dance high and RIP. He will never be forgotten. ❤️

[@TheFunk79]

I'm proud of Angel for going to therapy and involving herself in ways to try to turn tragedy into something meaningful. One can't change the past but they can work on themselves and change how they relate to others in the present and future. I think it's really telling that she's the one who wanted to go to therapy. I'm sure Nick has too. That is why those two are still standing, as well as the support system they have. She's a brave person and I think she's going to continue to do meaningful things with her life and the gift of time she has. I wish her well.

My heart breaks for his twin sister. I felt that his sister get him more than anyone else. It's a tragedy. I think Aaron was murdered. He was getting threats and he was scared. I am glad that she's sharing her thoughts and bringing awareness. It was different that how Nick handled his grief. She's right, she lost two siblings now. What a sad tragedy. I wished that Aaron was protected that night.

[@Lma894]

Nick is handing his grief differently yes but he recently came out how he’s still processing everything and it’s been really hard. Look at the turmoil he’s facing aside from loosing Aaron. Some people truly think he should have hated him and the truth is he never did. If anything Nick has alot of hurt because he now knows Aaron apologized for everything. Those two were supposed to make amends and that says a lot. Addiction can hurt the people that love you the most. I believe Angel and Nick loved him more then their own parents.

Early intervention is key to saving lives.

No family is perfect, but it is so hard to come out of it when you're an adult. It is a battle every single day and as a society we have the responsibility to look out for one another.

He was there through some of the hardest times of my life through all of the broken family drama. I had going on at home as a child not even knowing about it he was there in the background, I had a sad falling out with him. The first time I ever met him in person and it crushed me, but despite that he was such a huge part of my life that I don’t hold that against him because I know he was going through so much mentally, and physically that nobody could even understand. Aaron was such an important human being to so many young people who idolized him in many different ways and even after his passing, I still play his music. I still think of him often and hold what he did in his career high.

Very gracious of Angel to acknowledge the good about Aaron and how she wants to remember him. Aaron had turned into a monster the last 3 years of his life. His addictions and mental health took a very dark and harmful turn. The things he accused his sister and brother of were unforgivable. He had his child taken away because Aaron wouldn't go to rehab or change his erratic and harmful behavior. He threatened angel to have her child taken away because she had used xanax during pregnancy. But he was the one with a Xanax addiction and eventually had his child taken away. I think wanting to remember him in his good years is part of why they had him cremated... who could stand to look at Aaron's face in that condition? He was a shell of himself. Addiction made him turn into something they wouldn't have recognized. He mamed himself physically.

Yet Nick was on the way of making amends with him. I hope he comes out with all this after everything. Because those two truly knew what this was doing to him and their family. The help was always there he just could not see it. The fact Angel buried his ashes just with her husband and a few close friends shows she needed to protect him as her twin. With everything that’s going with Nick I’m sure it isn’t helping

So proud of her

Aaron's heart couldn't take this world, I feel the same way. Sometimes I call it the matrix to feel better. He was a kind kid who should have never been in the entertainment industry. It ate him up as a kid
