Proud of this dude for being introspective and working on emotions and spirituality. Progress is not a straight line but if he sticks to those morals, ethics, and values he can keep getting back on track of progress to continue the journey despite the pitfalls and setbacks that come with the cards he was dealt. He's held up pretty well for such a rocky ride.

Yes!!! What a turnaround! Really proud and hapoy for him.

[@jamesdoakes4956]

I don’t believe he’s turned his life around. I know so many addicts who will get right in front of your face and say they’re changing their ways, while they just did some grimy ish a couple hours prior to seeing you then leave n go right back in some grimy ish. My girls sister is the same way. Swore she wasn’t taking pills anymore, said that cps is involved because of one of her neighbors putting stolen property in her shed. And cps does weekly count or her prescriptions to make sure she’s not out of hand. We get a message from another neighbor saying she’s taking care of the daughter and has been for months because the police went into the sisters house and found a bunch of pills. And every week they go to count her medicine and her and the baby dad sneak out the back and leave because they’re still using. Not making any progress to get her daughter back. This guy here has nobody for support. No parents. Sister disowned him, and you believe he’s going down the right path? Nah, not happening.

[@joeywright7334]

I agree, for him to be interested in learning how to regulate his emotions in finding some type of spirituality to help him find. Peace in life is amazing given what he was dealt. Robert, keep striving for things that bring you peace and happiness and balance in your life. You can do it.❤

TRUTH !!!

[@joeywright7334]

Facts!!!

[@williamvanderpool5177]

Wrong, you are placing the cart before the horse. You don't just blame society for the results, you blame society for creating and/or neglecting the root causes that led to the results as well. If you don't focus on the causes and only the results, you will end up with more results and not less, no matter how successful you are at addressing the results. If you have a problem with mice in your home, catching the mice and releasing them does nothing to stop the mice from entering the house. The only way to stop the mice, is to fix the issue of them getting into the house in the first place. Granted, this person needs help, but is he willing to agree to follow the rules and make the sacrifices necessary? Based on his own story, he is the reason he is where he is. Very true, he may have never had the chance to know better, and that should be the focus going forward. Unless you support forced involuntary commitment to a mental hospital, all you can do as a society is to mitigate his impact on others. Meanwhile, try supporting politicians that want to stop the cause, and not politicians that claim to care after society has ended up called the devil's butthole.

I’ve been watching this channel for over a year, but have never commented. This one hit me hard. My daughter was born to a meth addicted mother, who more than likely traded a sexual favor for drugs with a man who was involved in a biker gang. My wife and I adopted her from birth. I can’t help but think what her life may have been like. She has been surrounded by a loving family, a loving extended family, and receives the prescribed medication that is needed to help her cope with some of the disabilities that I see Robert struggling with. She was born like Robert, but placed in a completely different context. Robert, there is hope, but it may not be in this life. I’m going to go give my daughter a kiss and watch her peacefully sleep for a few moments. Mark, keep it up!

@troymillay8691 Consider yourself lucky if you don't understand. Anyone who grows up in a horrible situation is told "We did the best we could," by that VERY SAME ABUSIVE PARENT or by their enabler spouse as part of universal gaslighting/manipulation tactic. The child is brainwashed, taught to question their own perceptions of reality, told "you were always so selfish" when it comes to providing basic needs like food to eat or a proper pair of shoes. It takes years of therapy and moving FAR FAR FAR AWAY from abusers to finally understand what happened to you.

[@firehorse9996]

Since both of his parents are deceased, Robert will never have the chance to confront them on their failures and neglect. It's too late for him to demand any explanations, to go No Contact or write them a letter. So it's probably for the best that he maintain a positive mental image of his father.

No matter how much love you give a person, they will cling to what they know. I have given the last 26 years of my life to a person who had a shitty childhood, no love or care; became a Meth addict and was diagnosed Schizophrenic 9 years ago and this person STILL behaves the way he learned to survive on his own growing up- from the age of 12. He is 54 and I'm 46. I promise you- there's really only hope to truly help someone adapt to a better lifestyle if they can be reached as early as possible. I was nearly destroyed in many ways by a guy who wouldn't even blink if I died tomorrow after spending over 26 years trying to love him, support him and show him better ways.

[@lynnc8188]

Some people are lousy parents and all kids deserve good parents. That being said, who the hell gets to choose who has children and who doesn’t?! In America?! We, the people get to choose. It’s called freedom!!

There is hunter vs farmer hypothesis explaining ADHD which would give hunter genetic advantage. I find this pretty interesting because it is linked to another research showing women are biologically better equipped for hunting and hunted much more often than we thought. Some sources claim 80% of women used to hunt, it seems they never stopped :)

[@izzydeadyet7336]

I believe it, I feel like women have traits that would make them good hunters.. not all women but normal ones at least

[@inconceivabledark]

In certain animal species it is normally the female that hunts to provide for her offspring

[@benjaminjantzen1398]

WHAT?!? Hahaha, no.

[@dharmicshaman9519]

​@benjaminjantzen1398 agreed, people are in la-la land with the PC stuff. There are tons of tribes still around living as they always did, women don't hunt in them. The weaker slower gender hunting makes no sense. I'm sure in some cultures women are taught to fight as defenders of the home but it's a last resort.

[@Chungalhunga]

@@benjaminjantzen1398 Are you into scientific research about this matter? I used to think most women don't have good orientation in space, making them not so good hunters, until the proved me i was wrong about orientation. Does it mean they are good hunters? No, science doesn't work this way, a lot more data is needed, i'm sure scientists will soon get very precise answer.

As a recovering addict, I can tell the ones who aren't really as into changing their lives as they say. If they're telling you how bad ass they are and telling you stories of how big of a dealer or gangster, they're not quite ready yet. And I am pretty sure there's mental health facilities that would get a person ADHD meds if they really need it.

[@ashleychamp1544]

This is deep set trauma from an early age and unfortunately it will probably follow him and impact him until the day he dies. I almost want to say it's not even his fault for how he turned out. People who say just turn your life around just do something different just do something better...wtf! He had no chance from the very beginning.😮❤

[@kattilathehunfreedomfighter]

True in many ways. That's where Jesus Christ comes in. He is the only way, the only truth and the only life. He can turn Robert around unlike any other false teaching. I pray that he seeks and finds Him. 🙏 ✝️

[@-Dolce_Far_Niente-]

​@kattilathehunfreedomfighter really? Because there are millions of children, across the globe, who are praying every minute of everyday to God for something...anything to eat for themselves and their families, but those children still pass away from famine! There are 100s of thousands of children who are constantly praying and begging for the abuse (sexual, emotional, psychological) their priests, preachers, pastors, etc are committing against them to end! Yet, those children are hushed, gaslit, told they're lying, etc, from their so-called supportive churches and sometimes their own families. Then the churches cover it up, sweep it all under the rug, and possibly pay off the families so they don't go to the police. Why would giving it all over to God work for Robert and other people, but your supposed God won't even end the suffering of the most innocent and sometimes most vulnerable members of any community, the children!?! Or better yet, why did this supposed God allow that kind of tortuous abuse to start? Why didn't your God save Robert, when he was young from the tumultuous events of his childhood?

wow exhausting,,,,,but i got through it

[@smileygladhands]

Victim victim victim..... Everyone is a victim these days, it's never their fault. I get that it's hard growing up with your parents doing drugs, i lived it as an only child. And yes, I did end up becoming a drug addict. At the start, I do agree that addiction can be genetic or a product of environment, but after you turn 30 and are still slamming dope, get help. There's help out there for all of these addicts, they just don't want it, and that's their choice.

[@paulmckinnon5199]

He's tweaking , I'm a sufferer from ever abuse from a young boy, ened up slamming h, minor amounts of meth but wasn't my thing watched my mum lie, cheat everything 3 friends day,my ya can't trick anold user... He's flying

[@paulmckinnon5199]

3 friends die, I took the opiate, scumbag route that's what alcos, and meth users think, but I've slammed meth, and this is the constant talking you got, it's a round about subject, that never ends, never was my thing, plus you can hear his mouth is dry, I can..cmonnn

[@spaghettilord2858]

It’s somewhat of a rare thing for people to not become a product of their environment of their environment, only the strong willed and exceptional individuals like yourself make it. It takes a lot of strength.

[@jenniferneas6571]

He may have been born addicted, and then growing up with 2 drugged up parents and a father who turned him on more to drugs and crime, its a wonder he has any insight at all. I pray he can have a good life. He never stood a chance. Maybe now that he sees his demons past and present he can turn it around. There is always hope.

I'm decades older than this guy. There are things my folks said and did when I was a kid that play back and set my emotions on fire, still. To go through all this guy has gone through is to have experienced hell. Good news is, we are in purgatory. From here we can ascend to heaven. May it be because of a dog or even befriending a pigeon, may you find affection in your life, Robert. I hope your soul will be calmed so that you may ascend. Peace

I had no help or support either...but I did it. Ive been living a totally different life that i never imagined before for 12yrs now. He can too! I hear the positivity in him,it's in there... he's just gotta dig deep. Good luck to him.

sounds like he is doing better though, I hope so, I made this comment mid-video but you cant go around raping people or robbing people and shit but sounds like he served his time. I hope he is better now. God Bless him.
