I pray he gets the help he needs asap

so much respect for u reed and everything u do

i have a disorder that makes me go into fight or flight when i consciously or unconsciously feel like my autonomy is being taken away way, no matter how big or small the thing may be. this affects me in a multitude of ways, but the biggest is when it comes to everyday and larger life demands. even the things i want to do like hygiene, school, housing, and things for my future can cause that overwhelming feeling. by the time i was 12 i tried killing myself and continued to be terribly suicidal up until i received a diagnosis, intervention, and support at 20, but this was after years of abusive relationships, sketchy situations, lots of drugs, missing so much school, being told that i was just depressed/anxious and truly believing deep inside that i would end up homeless because just trying to live, in situations that made me feel happy, also made me feel such overwhelming negative and scary feelings. it always felt like there was the part of me who was conscious, who got to dictate her life and the other part that i have no control over, it’s just the way im programmed to feel and not matter what i did i couldn’t change it or make myself feel better in living. it felt like i was in an abusive relationship with life, but that life had so much joy with literally everyone else. i felt defective. i feel for this kid so so so much. i always thought i would end up homeless for the exact reasons he describes. my brain feels functional on drugs, but i learned that was only because living life everyday, while seemingly really nice, made me so feel overwhelmingly horrible inside since as far back as i can remember. each year it gets worse and worse. it’s another year of feeling the same overwhelming mental and physical feelings inside every single day. it’s another year of not being able to do as much as everyone around you, or not being able to enjoy it as much, or being drained from literally everything because everything feels incompatible with you. there’s also the fact that as you age you get new demands placed on you that can feel like they’re taking away autonomy because they’re expected of everyone by a certain age. even if you want to do those things, they’re seemingly huge demands (paying rent, holding down a job, going to school, and then there’s extras like keeping friends, taking care of your physical health) especially after the last 18 years of barely scraping by. i burned out at 12. i don’t know how i survived until 20 except for my desire to have a future, to feel normal, to feel even the slightest bit compatible in the world i was born into. i only got the help i did because at 20 i felt like i couldn’t live like that anymore. i was either going to die or try to get help and that there was, in fact, something to help, this wasn’t all i was. now im turning 22 a week from friday. life still makes me feel that overwhelming feeling of fight or flight, but im learning how to work with myself and the world, and its getting less overwhelming little by little. i’ve come really far compared to what the fight or flight made me feel 2 and 10 years ago. sometimes i do still feel backed into that corner and sometimes the future still seems scary, but i can get out of there quickly and soon the future starts looking hopeful again. i even, for once in my life (but hopefully now forever) look forward to it. im sorry for everyone with my condition and that it isn’t more recognized especially in north america. im sorry that there are so many conditions like mine that don’t have enough recognition or support. i’m so sorry to this 24 year old man that the world hasn’t given him an environment that has the proper resources that have can help him learn how to work with his brain and the world. i really wish he and everyone else struggling get the peace and content they so obviously deserve p.s. there’s nothing wrong with chilling, but i truly believe that deep down, passed all the troubles that our genetics and life gives up, we all do desire something more (even if it’s just a little hut in the forrest) p.p.s. i love your work reed, you’re doing great.

I love her spirit 🫶🏽💛

Lol the "I don't care" after yelling "FUCK YOUR FEELINGS!" was so well placed!

The whole third world is there

Just because you were put in the trash as a baby doesn’t make you trash!

Whos trying to traffic this dude?

I was 21 years old when i come to this country and always i was working with the Agencies of job and working full time every day in factories,this salary help me to pay rent and expences.🤗

Damn they gonna be coming for you they said your an Informant that got everyone locked up in the towns

Drunks are better then hard drug users but they can still spend $$ that makes it hard to pay any rent.

Came from your insta brother . As someone who is in a more fortunate position but still struggles with addiction I’d love to watch some longer form videos of the people you meet . Similar to soft white , or the tales from the streets over in phoenix . Keep up the good work bro

Ya Allah grant him ease and guide him inshAllah

She is lost 😞

Just hanging around the block. Not using or anything

I guess he likes living on the street doesn’t seem to care that he’s sleeping on the sidewalk . Part of the homless problem is people are happy living like a bum . He has a good personality and is interesting and almost reminds me of myself but its just strange to me that he just doesn’t seem to want to try get off the dirty ass sidewalk . Maybe his massive ego is what’s holding him back

Drugs do crazy things to mental health

BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST NOW I Pray born again Spirit Filled Saved by God Amazing Grace Amen 🫵😎

WOW LADY. YOU CAN REALLY TELL WHAT CRACK HAS DONE TO YOU…. EVERY PART OF HER STORY SHES TRYING HER TO TOP IT WITH A BETTER ONE. TOO MUCH VERBAL DIARRHEA

I wish you would have asked Steven, “If you lived in Barrie with a roof over your head, had a good job, had a good woman, and that woman had kids who loved him-why give that all up?” He says that there were not enough drugs in Barrie so he came down to Toronto. What made him turn to the drugs?

This is not a woman……..

I can relate to him 100!!! So many of us lead these double lives. You put into words what I haven’t been able to explain to anyone for so long. Damn you have inspired me in so many ways. If you see this I would love to chat with you - laughnwcrylatr7@gmail.com

She's extorted 2:46

Give addicts treatment, please. Let us be free of drugs.

No way you got Kelly on here!!

Holy ik this guy, solid af guy

I have been sober 4 years no methadone or suboxone...IV fent crack meth, ghb for "fun"...well u name it, I was doing. Grew up in a sober home same as this man. I was doing it since I was 16 on and off, started with pill addiction. Sherb n queen was my stompping ground lol. Man, Reed I would love a chat one day. Thank you for sharing your story.

Loved to see a different side of addiction

This guys been fucked over his whole life. This is sad

I appreciate this interview, very insightful esp when he spoke about how he recognized that he was going into a dark place and he still continued down that path.

It pains me to know that some of these people have amazing supports that they are “closing the elevator doors” on and basically saying I’ll keep hurting myself and you until I’m ready to stop but you have to be there when I’m ready. Ik someone close to me who looks for her daughter multiple times every week and she was so hopeful that her daughter was in detox but she keeps signing herself out. This dude said at that time his father was 70…. What 70 yr old has the energy to deal with this? So heartbreaking… my story is of a mom in her 60’s and still having hope that her daughter will smarten up.

😮😅 early 90's sherbourne and Regent park was Hookers and crack dealers on every corner. 💯💯 Crazy place only the strong survived, i remember seeing 20-30 crack dealers at 3 am in Regent park , river street and gerrard, they had a line of crackheads and cabs lined up lol 🤣 💯💯 hand to hand transactions like it was nothing, cops didnt even bother them. Craziest sh!t i ever saw in Toronto..💯💯💯🤯🏌️
