People don't realize that there is a dark power and principality behind addiction they try to make you believe it's all a physical an mental disorder but it's way deeper than that. Read the Bible an study it. It's got a life but it's of darkness not light.

I feel you Jesse, I totally get it. My entire opiate addiction started with a dang 5mg Vicodin pill (Watson). I climbed up the opiate pill ladder and after 2 years I went to heroin. Fast forward 13 years after several detoxes, jail, rehabs, and eventually prison, now I’m on methadone as well. I tried subs but failed that program 3 different times. Methadone is the only thing that’s gotten me off heroin and stopped me from committing petty crimes just for some dope money. So I totally understand where you’re coming from brother. You’re not alone. Thanks for stopping by and sharing a little bit about yourself. 🙏🏽 - Daniel | RighteousMonkey

@@jessemurray3033I’m on m-done as well about 8 to 10 yrs.. before methadone was unstable , unworkable, always on the edge criminally doing some dumb shit or another, having no control over my life and it driving me crazy that nothing I ever did could allow me to control my life.. eventually I just accepted I would never have any control over my behavior or self, I had simply tried and failed too many times… Now after 10 years methadone I have control of my behavior, no law trouble in a decade, money in my accounts , I’ve learned to day trade, I renovated an entire house top to bottom to learn all of the skills, I have a big garden every single year, I’m saving for my own land which I pretty much have enough now thanks to trading.. yes methadone has its downside, but to me and any sane person my life on methadone is fucking paradise and it’s always important I never ever forget why..

I could sit and talk with him for hours. I've been clean since Apr. 8 2020 and am still engaged in pulling myself from the deep pit I dug myself. It's hard and some days I long for a break from the sharp edges of this world. I think we all do. Great video❤

I love beer I’ve tried to quit drinking for just one month and fail miserably every time but beer is not a hard drug or drink but it is alcohol . To all young people out there if I never started I would never be trying to stop . It’s a bad choice people say it’s only beer it’s not bad for you . Beer is horrible I’ve gained weight I’ve lost my drive to be the best me I can be and I still can’t quit . Don’t ever start . That’s my advice .

​@@righteousmonkey Great video.. A lot of people have the answers.. but is this a spiritual problem that requires a solution? True powerlessness is a hard one to swallow.. cannot or will not? What happens when you can't? Can't buy it, can't work hard enough to "get" it or earn it. On the streets or off. In the works or not. Funny how they say the further down you are the more hope there is. When you come to the end of yourself and all that is in you to pull yourself up is gone. Closest thing to possession I have ever seen. What would he or anyone trade for a normal day that doesn't hurt? I'll bet he'd trade anything, I know I would. Praying for Zach Thank you ⬆️🙏⬆️

They'd rather be homeless on drugs, than in a home and sober. This is a near impossible problem when the drugs just keep coming. Cut the drug supply, and we can help. But who can stop the drugs? Nobody! If they could stop them, why haven't they?

So true what he said about if you don't have a safe place to sleep, you wont sleep , youll do drugs to stay awake to stay safe. Not my personal experience but of a dear lovely female who lived on the streets. Sad life for sure.
