Don’t laugh or look 👀 down on him unless ur going to help him up. Remember people u can be in his shoes 👟. Jesus is watching u.

My dad was on crack for 30 years! He finally got clean at age 64. Soon after he got clean he went into heart failure. He died at age 71 from Covid attacking his heart. My dad had plenty relapses but when he got clean for good he really turned his life around. People have to realize that they have to do this on their own. All we can do is pray for him and trust God.

Yes, he does! Although I’m rooting for him and feel bad for him. He’s definitely saying what he thinks everyone want to hear. He’s quick to point the finger at everyone else and not take accountability. He’s been manipulative since day when he gave a different name. And from there the list goes on. But this is all common behavior for a addict. All we can do is hope for the best

I get the feeling Martin is opening up more to Art with his painful history and talking more about his own mistakes, owning them and in doing so, he is realizing more and more he has to change to make it work.

"You can't understand addiction if you haven't been through it" the realist words I ever heard him say. No amount of books or hours spent studying or articles read or even years of watching loved ones going through it and dying right infront of you gives you the understanding of addiction, like living addiction and going through it!!!

[@TheGrayGrey]

The large majority of people can't give up a bag of chips or a sweet. While grocery shopping can't walk past foods that are not good for them yet many don't have compassion or understanding that someone as addicted to blues as Martian can just get it together or stop. I have great empathy for Martain and I hope he chooses him one day, fight hard to live, and one day can look back to say I made it to the other side. His story will change lives no matter how it goes. Many people will never touch a drug after seeing how it has ruined Martian's life. No matter what happens he can say that he changed lives by being brave enough to allow the world to see him at him worst. Many addicts hide in the shadows and are very secretive while using. Martin deserves respect for allowing the world to see this journey. Keep praying for Martin and his recovery.

This man is so smart, but can't save himself because of his addiction. He is absolutely correct when he said addiction is not understood by anyone unless u are an addict and know the inability to resist the use of drugs, even in the face of help! I lost two brothers to drugs. It touches my heart to hear Martin cry about his son and to admit it's one of the reasons for his addiction. One of my brothers went through the same situation of having his son kept away from him. He wasn't even an addict at that time. This set him off into a tailspin of drug activity. I hope this guy can beat this, please keep trying to help him because it just may work.

Family members experience the addiction in a different manner. The fear and unknown of ppl coming around that would provoke the individual to get high.

You write so eloquently. " the opposite of addiction is connection ".I feel all of it is ' lack of love' usually from childhood,unresolved pain and trauma.Plenty of people try drugs in their youth but to become addicted requires a need to abandon oneself, one self respect and to consciously or subconsciously abandon one's health,morals and principles.

I'm an alcoholic who relied on public transit (the light rail 🚈 in the Phoenix area). Once I got that responsibility, I didn't want to turn my car into a weapon. (DUI was something i was terrified of). That was after months of telling mental health providers, "I'll quit tomorrow."

God Bless Martin. ❤He’s right- if you haven’t experienced addiction then you don’t really know the struggle. He can beat it and I hope he does soon ! Thank you Art for all you do.

[@squishyTIMES]

I wish Martin the best! Thanks for sharing ur story/life! Keep on truckin! 🤙🏽

[@audreyola5337]

My heart breaks for Martin he's a really good guy I hope he gets on the methadone and gets himself right he's still a young man who deserves a good life prayers and love for Martin God bless and guide him through these hard times ijn Amen 🙏love from Ireland 💙✌🍀

Bro have to separate himself completely from her and focus on him and the kids so they can at least have one parent

[@lenastepp5495]

They have a codependent relationship she is his legs that he don't have. She can bring the drugs to him keeping him dependant on her. That's how she controls him and it hurts Martin but he can't do anything without her so he's convinced himself of that. It's a toxic relationship..

[@trippin6118]

I tend to believe it is more than an addiction. He's in tremendous pain with his feet and hips. He needs a doctor in pain management to help him. I was in that situation where the pain is so bad that you don't sleep. I didn't get addicted to anything but I can see how it can happen.

[@originalcaligirl7466]

You lost your son!! Nobody took him from you. You let him go when you picked ur wife and the streets over him.

[@leed.5299]

He needs a therapist. He can’t get over the habit until he faces what caused it. Hint-the drug is only the behavior-signed Licensed Therapist

[@zoilatapanes3746]

I can see the sadness in his eyes. It’s heartbreaking 💔 I pray God will give him the strength to go to the hospital and seek medical help 😢

[@1MacDog]

Martin you can help alot of people by getting clean & showing all addicts it's possible! We the 602 Family r all behind u Martin! 💙🙏

[@MrCrawldaddy]

All we're doing is watching this man slowly die. Put the time and effort in a poor soul that can be saved.

[@lovelybrowngeek8725]

I am glad to hear he recognizes he is not happy, because it make him realize he can do better. I just hope he can realize he can be happy. Hopefully heals

[@Bigbodybri]

Man after him saying how long he’s used Street drugs and then seeing how brilliant his mind is is amazing. Martin u have better memory than me big dawg and I used for about seven yrs myself BUT GOD Martin but God, he saved me and restored my health and my brain is slowly recovering.

My children has always came first in my life...no matter what. There is no choosing someone over your children.

[@susamgray2483]

I be so glad when my daughter realizes that 😢

[@juicyjones1]

🥺🥺 Martin please try and stop making excuses … I really want you to win🥺🙏🏾♥️we love you ♥️♥️

[@ambassadorofchrist832]

Martin you're in my prayers 🙏🏾

[@leneo1731]

I can't stop crying. The things that has been done to that lille baby boy and the what he have been through is just so horrible and so egoistical. If your clean and clear headed like he claims he was, you don't sleep in a tent for ten months with a toddler. That's just beyond every normal behaviour. Thank God that baby was finally left at the grandparents.

[@maxspears6030]

You gotta want it, Brother Martin. You can do it. And you do indeed remind me of Kobe Bryant. There’s a fine looking man under all that pain. Prayers Fam. 💜🙏🏽💜

[@guruji.2022]

Martin is actually a good looking man, if he did not do the drugs, his features would be great, he reminds me of 2 pac

[@tarawright363]

How does he remind you of Pac????????

[@natashamapp8450]

I said the same thing he reminds of Tupac as well… the wife🫠

[@lw8546]

Martin would rather get high, and his body rot. He does not want help. Idc anymore

[@suegriffin126]

There are many of us on here that have gone through withdrawal and made it! He can’t say we don’t get it. It’s hard work, and there’s help. He doesn’t get it.

[@lenastepp5495]

I think Martin does get it hes very smart. Imagine being drug free now you got to face the long list of medical problems those drugs has caused your body. A wife whose still using putting the pressure on him to return to drugs. The pain of going through multiple surgeries more pain. He rather self medicate himself with those drugs and stay right where he is very sad indeed.

[@jennifer9995]

Martin, i know you can do it! I have over 12 years clean from opiates! It may seem hopeless now, but I'm telling you, it's not! I know you can do it, and I hope you do! ❤❤❤

[@boogievalentine1473]

I think he said 1 true thing u will not understand addiction if you ve never been addicted

[@lenastepp5495]

He also took the blame for using and admitted he didn't know what he was doing and by the time he knew it he was addicted..😢

[@Ty-rj7mc]

I think Martins biggest addiction is his wife! He’s always worried about her and what man she’s with I think that’s a huge reason he won’t leave as well

[@PeaJayCee]

Yes. Codependency

[@darkestpriestess]

We all just love him so much. All we want is the best for him. Thank you Art for doing all you can to be there and to understand what he's going through. 🙏

[@EuleneWages4644]

Amen 💯🙏🏻❤️

[@0oohhhlala]

He’s full of it!! I feel so sad for that child. He’s playing like a grown victim

[@toomuch4youdelgado551]

Martin you are not alone ! I really hope GOD gives you the strength to keep pushing forward even when it’s hard. ❤

[@mariyahj8609]

Martin please get clean 🧼 and off drugs . I’m rooting for you brother Showing love from Tacoma Washington

[@joannaazar7396]

It seems like you care about him more than he cares about getting himself help. Sad situation!
