My Last Day In Prison | Walking Out Homeless

I struggled with addiction for almost 10 years. I have been in and out of jail/prison for years. Now I am working on my bachelors degree in psychology. This story is based on my own personal opinion and experiences.

When you talked about grocery shopping I felt that. I remember crying because there were so many toothpaste options, which sounds absolutely ridiculous. But i was so used to someone else making my decisions for me I had no idea how to live on my own. Even before prison I was an addict so i had no clue how to live on a day to day basis. Keep on keeping on girl❤

Addiction is basically escaping all responsibility, even making minor decisions. We can't escape like that. We came here for a reason and the 3 most empowering words to repeat every morning are "I Am Responsible"

[@snoozyq9576]

Not ridiculous at all. I've never even been to prison and have always been overwhelmed by shopping just due to anxiety issues

[@chloelarkins6379]

My life is absolutely nothing like yours. I live in the UK and I went through school at the top of all my classes getting top grades, I went to university and I graduated with a bachelors degree with honours, never done any drugs or even smoked a cigarette, not even once... yet I gain SO much from your videos. Since graduating from uni I've been very much lost and struggled immensely with my mental health. And then I hear your stories and I think wow, if this girl can change her life after everything you've been through then I can to. It makes my problems seem so tiny, though they are so huge in my mind. You're one hell of a strong girl and I have nothing but admiration for you. On paper I look 'successful' but due to severe anxiety I struggle with employment, something as simple as going to work is insanely hard for me, so girl I get you when you say how good it feels to buy your own pair of shoes with money you worked for. I've paid 2 bills today and I feel so proud. Can't afford a packet of crisps, but it still feels good to know my bills are covered and I made that happen. Keep going, you inspire me so much!

[@honey8177]

Chloe Larkins this is literally me

[@sonjaklein6901]

So are you! You probably get up (almost) every day and get through the day. You have managed to get a geat education, be top of your class and get a job. This is a huge success and no matter what is going on in your life at the moment, nobody can ever take that success away from you. You have every right and reason to pat your shoulder, look into the mirror and proudly say to yourself "You are an amazing, fantastic and loveable person. I am so proud of myself." The transistion from fulltime education to work is a tough one and even tougher when you struggle with mental health issues. I wish universities in the UK would offer more support for the time approaching the end of fulltime education and the first couple months after. Please, do seek help. It is absolutely worth it! And, although I don't know you, I am proud of you for what you have achieved and one day so will you.

Jessica, you are an angel. I've just discovered your channel in a time in which I need all the help I can get. My partner of four years and his family have all battled addiction, and his parents have been in and out of jail/prison multiple times throughout the years. I've struggled as I'd never been around anything like that prior to meeting him. You have given me so much hope. My partner is 3 years sober, though we're still having issues with his family as they are all still battling heavy addiction. You have shown me to never give up hope, and have given me so much more insight. I relate so much to your stories, as I've witnessed many situations similar to those you have faced, though on the outside looking in. Your videos are helping me learn to help my partner more and more each day. Thank you for being so amazing, your personality is beautiful and I am so thankful to have found your channel.

You are so amazing for overcoming your addiction and getting your daughter back! Both of my parents were addicts and died from their addiction. I was born on H and had to withdraw as a baby. My mother always chose her drugs over me and never even tried to come back for me after I was taken away from her by the state because I was born positive for drugs in my system. I have so much respect for you for overcoming such a hard addiction and fighting for your daughter.

[@candicemiller9498]

When I first got out of prison I had extreme anxiety going out and being around large groups of people. I actually spent the majority of my first few months at my house. I kinda imprisoned myself at home. I thought I would be out and about and go everywhere but that wasn’t the case. I heard someone talk about this before, I think it’s called goraphobia? Probably wrong spelling.

[@bricy6437]

Candice miller Agoraphobia I think?

[@candicemiller9498]

Brice Martin thank you i believe that’s right

[@LouiseFranksArt]

Sounds like agoraphobia and I think that's totally understandable. You'd spent so long in the confines of prison that going outside is bound to feel overwhelming for some people. Go easy on yourself, you're doing your best. Peace x

[@Peresphone]

I haven’t ever been to prison but I have agoraphobia from life trauma too..it’s very common to have, so you aren’t alone. Especially when you’re in constant ptsd, depression, anxiety cycle. I hope you can get therapy & psych help soon..I’m about to and desperately excited to have these resources. Side note, I love Greek mythology & agoraphobia comes from the Greek word “Agora”, the Agora was the town square/common meeting place etc with tons of people..so it’s a fear of public places. I try to tune everyone out and listen to music, that usually helps. Therapy will definitely be the perfect tool though.

[@sheilaNrichard]

I'm currently on a Jessica Kent binge session and I have to say this is definitely one of my favorites you've done, your authenticity and raw emotion when describing this event in your life is very humbling. Have you ever considered writing a book on your story and experiences?

[@danielallanillos6712]

I’m a law student and I really appreciate your channel. It makes me touch reality from a female perspective that you don’t get too much. They teach you who are the “bad ones”, but no ones tells you why they did what they did and how hard it is to get back to society. So thank you for sharing this piece of wisdom. Thank you.

[@RoxeeE]

Jessica, I am so proud of you! I am crying because my bestie/"sister" is in recovery from addiction (I don't know what from and don't want to ask and upset her) but I have always wanted to tell her how proud of her I am without upsetting her. She did tell me one day she got sick of doing drugs and quit, I can't imagine how hard it is to deal with, but hearing your stories to help others I have so much respect for you and her and so proud of you and everyone that has had to overcome it

[@xarissa]

Wow her video and thumbnail quality has gotten so much better!!!! So cool to see you grow Jess :)

[@ASpookyGhost.]

Watching your videos is a little bittersweet for me. My mom went to prison when I was 11. She was doing so much better after she got out for a while, but her addiction has now completely taken over her life once more. Now I am in my 20s and we do not have a relationship. I worry every day that she's going to be arrested again or OD. I cannot give you enough props or express how proud I am of your success, even as a total stranger, and I am honestly envious of your daughter for having a mother so loving and determined. Thanks for sharing your story in such a positive and honest way.

Sennding hugs, because they're all I know how to send. This moved me. I've never done drugs, been to jail/prison, but I keep coming to these recovery stories, stories of incarceration, stories, in the end, of hope, and I want to cry with you. Yours is the most authentic I've seen so far, but I know there are a lot out there, so I'm sure I'll hear others... Still, though... your words, conviction, emotion. I'm there, I feel it as you're telling it, and I don't want anyone to have to go through it. I know that's not reality. My heart goes out to everyone dealing with addiction, who gets out of prison and just feels lost. Phew, now I'm the one rambling. Don't know where I'm going with this. Thank you for sharing such a powerful story of hope, of struggle, of so many things ... I can only pray it helps someone, or several someones. I'm sure it has, or will. How can it not? Stay strong.

[@yaimavol]

Well, it's a bad place, but shouldn't it be a bad place people don't want to be? We could decriminalize a lot more addiction, but then if she had not gone to prison, would she still be alive? Prison, in her case, really sobered her up and gave her the chance to grow up in a place where she could not harm herself.

[@mcearl8073]

Simply Ina What human rights were taken away exactly? From everything I’ve heard what makes prisons pretty bad isn’t the lack of tooth paste options or even the food, it’s the other fucking people in there. There’s plenty of programs and education things for those in prison, there’s TVs, radios, books etc. then when you get out you get transitioned into a halfway house which helps you get on your feet and get a job. I used to work at a halfway house and it wasn’t really that bad for them there. They still don’t have 100% control of everything but I guarantee you one thing, they have more control in there than they did on the streets in their addiction. She really didn’t get out “homeless” if she was going into a halfway house.

Just found your videos a few days ago. I've been on felony probation since 2017, I'm supposed to get off this coming October. I just violated probation for the fifth time after doing great for a year. It is entirely possible that the judge will decide he's fed up and send me to prison. Thankfully, my PO did not recommend prison and sees that I'm trying to fix this mistake. I'm back on a program while I wait to find out what the outcome of this violation is going to be. I'm scared, but I won't run from it. I want recovery and I'm going to fight for it no matter what. Thank you for making these videos. You are helping strengthen my resolve so much, you're an angel for me right now and if I should end up in jail or prison, I will have entered strong and clean and with a head and heart full of your wisest words.

it resonated with me what you said about learning how to be yourself after being in addiction for so long,im 5 years sober and its truly a gift i wish i could give to everyone .the feeling of empowerment that comes with sobriety after a while just makes you think think you can do anything.better than any drug.thanks from liverpool england.

[@candacemcwilliams6493]

Omg this is so crazy. I’m so happy you’re doing well.

[@ldmassey]

I've been binge watching your videos the last few days and this is my favorite. It was so real and I could feel how emotional you were. I am so proud of you and I just met you. I've been in that lifestyle myself, but got out pretty quickly before I got too deep, but I still have demons I haven't escaped from yet, and with how hard it's been for me, I cannot even imagine how difficult it has been for you and you are such an inspiration. Keep up the great work friend!

[@lydiakies9053]

Girl. You should be a motivational speaker. For some reason, your channel popped up in my "suggested video" list. Clearly, I needed to hear what you have to say. More peoole need to hear it.

[@Ceerads]

You’ve been through so much that was bad, I send you hugs. I’m a 73-year-old woman whose never done drugs or been in prison. My brother was an addict for 18 or so years and had been in recovery for 35 years now. A close friend of mine has a son who was addicted and spent time in prison but is now in recovery and doing very well. I thank you for your videos and for helping so many. I wish you everything good and healthful in life.

[@megsticles]

Thank you for sharing your story..I was just released and it makes me feel better that someone knows how awkward I feel. You're a beautiful soul

[@Ana-bn2dy]

This is so inspiring. Thanks for making me see that people do change and that you can turn your life around. You are making a huge difference! You go girl. You've got this!

[@Tanya-yu6mf]

I'm so so happy for you, I wish everybody who struggles now could rise like a phoenix like you did

[@TheNutellaSloth]

This video forreal made me cry and think about the many family members who are addicts and in and out of prison. It’s so hard to see them in that hard place but watching ur videos made me have a little hope that they will heal as well 😢😢

[@jaimeotterson1642]

Gives me chills hearing u say "your one mistake away." Cause i know its tru. I remember being locked up with a girl in on a cap murder case and she tried helping me a young hot mess dope sick....she had incidentally just been there on a drug case not many months b4 and now was back for that....i still think of her all the time.

[@michaelschreffler4159]

Hey jess, proud of you girl, not for going to prison but for your never say die attitude and your ability to survive and adapt

[@SarahChristina]

Girl had me in tears. Feels good to make money the right way.

[@Andychangftw]

Hey Jess Wow whenever I think I’m having a bad day, I’ll remember what you’ve had to go through and how you’ve overcome it all. You are truly inspirational and I am so grateful I found you through Fresh Out’s interview. Keep up the excellent work!!!

[@tavytt1493]

“My success and happiness is my responsibility “😭❤️

[@threesistersbeautyco.809]

I have not been an addict, nor been to jail. But my eldest beloved son is on this path and seeing you gives me hope that he will have a break through and stop with the destruction if he chooses. I am really amazed by you x

[@laylab2596]

I am so proud of you for recovering and turning it around, and I’m definitely heading to Target soon for that sweater oh my gosh

[@lilfizz1105]

i thank the algorithm and chicago and the universe for introducing me to you and your story (still unfolding) YOU ARE SO ARTICULATE and i am so intrigued by your ability to use this platform to spread awareness, kindness, and validation while simultaneously being a straight up business owner and conscious, present momma. I keep watching more and more of your videos everyday but this one really stuck out to me and i cant wait to read your autobiography. i could keep typing but i have to cut myself off at some point lmao. thanks for being u

[@nicolenezzio6230]

All of your videos are full of great content!! Thank you so much for giving me hope that just because things are bad doesn’t mean that it will be like this forever. I love you Jess!!!!

[@nicolafilippi2053]

Thank you Jessica. I am struggling to stay sober & clean & watching this has given me the strength to keep clean

[@jennita1234]

Your "tangent" was such a beautiful part of this!

[@joshfugal6259]

Dude! I'm a veteran, former MP (military police), was almost a prison guard in utah (dropped that for a job with more money)... this kind of video and information makes me want to get involved, pen pal, and help where I can for the rehabilitation of someone trying to get out and away from the system. I have daughters and hearing about your baby and you not knowing her breaks my heart. I'm going to check into what I need to do to give someone some hope and support. Thank you for these videos... they provide A LOT of perspective. I appreciate that.

[@sallymelly7151]

that other girl......when was she released after that fight?

[@sunevanrensburg5070]

WOOOOWWWWW all I can say is fking WOW! This is such a heartfelt story and I literally have goosebumps. Idk man I’m speechless just the way you told this story, makes me think a lot. Thank you Jessica this is really inspiring. So much love for you, have been binge watching your videos throughout the entire night haha only realizing it’s 5am now as I’m typing.

[@radiantbritt]

Jess got my crying off my mascara this morning 😩❤️

[@Evolve_with_jen]

I love your channel and what you stand for. So proud of what you have overcome and using KZbin to teach us and help other inmates

[@markieross9449]

18:06 this brought a tear to my eye! So proud of you girl!

[@tinawelch5524]

This may be the most touching video I've watched so far! I'm crying. So happy for your success.

[@aprilminder6851]

I’m still in the life style and I need theses videos in my life! I need to hear addiction in not a life sentence! Thank you.

[@blessingvalla3084]

You can do this

[@Katiebelle23]

I am a new viewer but I love your content and how you changed your life. I believe people like you are inspirations due to the fact that you got clean and have a life for yourself that you worked so hard for. You connected with your daughter, you have another daughter and a good boyfriend and honestly you are living proof this can happen. Getting sober is hard but it's worth it!!!

[@chloeallysen1742]

To people who've gone to jail for a long time: Was the difference in technology shocking?

[@patrickpepper4587]

I am a new subscriber to your channel ... I’m 69 years old and I’ve never been in trouble with the law. I watched several of your videos and I find you to an inspiration to others and I’m so glad that you‘ve turned your life around and, hopefully, there are other young ladies watching these that are currently in the lifestyle you once lived who can learn from the mistakes you made and there is HOPE. Thank you for sharing your stories and I wish you health, wealth and happiness.

[@ashleywilliams9732]

I’m so proud of you girl. You are such an inspiration to everyone! ♥️

[@rachelzuckett7413]

man i've been watching you and christina a lot. i don't usually watch a lot of youtube and i definitely never used to comment on videos or anything but you guys have a lot to do with my decision to finally go to detox. there are a lot of other factors but you guys make me feel like i can do it. i'm 28 and feel like my life is over because i've wasted so much damn time being strung out. but i want a new and better life. so i hope i can do it. so thanks for what you do.

[@andrewg3856]

Jess u are sooo AMAZING!!! I can't even begin to tell to how much i relate to u and your story, other than me being a 33 yr old male of course lol. I'm transitioning back into the free world myself at the moment and everything u are saying is tugging at my heart. Not to mention I'm an addict who's been clean for 15 months now. Sometimes i don't even know who i really am, but i am so very grateful to be home and have a loving family. My prayers go out to u and every other addict 🙏
