I was in Active Opiate Addiction for 20+ years. Took ANYTHING I could get my hands on. I was wearing 3 of the 100 Fentanyl patches and taking about 30-50 pills a day. That wasn’t the worse of it though.. I was so sick of the vicious cycle, Drug Court, Withdrawals, going in & out of jail etc. I put myself into Detox in 2016. I’ll be 8 years Clean & Serene this October.
Ohhh my!! I just read the part of your post that mentioned the pain patches and mannnn that brings back nightmares of me lookin for them just so I could “eat them” and itcc be was such a nightmare time in my life that I’m so glad is over!! I’m so proud of you tooo!! Clean life is the BEST choice❤
20 yrs . Wow . God bless you and someone I loved for decades after he lost his life was a boyfriend of mine who I didn't even realize was a heroin addict until after we broke up . ... he was only about 36 when he lost his life to heroin . Some other woman had the Nightmare Horror of waking up to him dead next to her in bed .
I am a recovering opiate addict..I have been clean for 17 years,and Just now listening to you describe withdrawals took me back to a time in my life that I try to forget..I had some medical issues that led me down my path of insanity and to be honest the only reason I am still alive is because of my mother's prayers..Thank you for sharing your experience,and just like you I had no what I was doing to my body until it was too late and I felt trapped.. Please keep sharing your life experiences because there are so many young ppl that need guidance and if you reach just one then that will be well worth your time and energy..
Thank you for sharing a little bit of your story… It’s insane how some of us become addicts in such a seemingly innocent way… I had no intentions of becoming an addict and I did not understand the severity of the choice. I made one night while I was partying. It was like a snowball that I did not see coming at all and before I knew it I couldn’t stop it. I know a lot of people that have become addicted to opiates as well from just how you described, a medical situation and it’s just all insanity because doctors and big Pharma I believe play a big part in keeping a lot of people addicted and subdued. Of course it’s not their fault if people become an addict, but these drugs are so dangerous and even as a 23 year old, I didn’t understand how serious one decision could be. Most of the time I talk about my prison journey, but I wanted to start talking about my addiction story as well because it’s a very serious one, it was a major part of my story, and it was a very hard battle to overcome. Thank you for your encouragement. Great job on recovering. I wish you nothing but the absolute best and The continued success in your walk. 17 years is a long time and I’m sure that your life is so much better now. Much love and respect to you and thank you again for your support and encouragement. 🙏🏼❤️
I had bad back pain. So my Pain Management doctor prescript me monthly 120 10/325 Norco's. After 3-1/2 years my back started to feel better, so I started weening myself off them. After I took my last one I had 8 days of hell. My heart was pounding, my nose was running and I wasn't hungry. NOT WORTH IT!!
Thank you for the encouragement… I’m actually writing one right now and I have some people reach out and try to help me write it, but they wanted to change some things around and make it a little bit more soft and fluffy… I didn’t like that idea, I don’t think people can benefit Like, or even dislike you unless they know the real authentic you so I’m trying to do it on my own and it’s taking a little bit longer as I have to learn all of the steps as I go, but I am doing it and I will definitely post when I have completed it. Nonetheless, thank you for the encouragement and the suggestion. I appreciate you! Much love and respect to you. ❤️🙏🏼
@@jenjengomezJen I totally agree , you have to stay true to yourself and what's the point of telling a true story if it's going to be watered down . Yes please write it in your own voice , your own words . If you're good at editing you can edit and proofread it yourself . If you have any photos or photos of your artwork that you get copyrighted ( and it's very easy to copyright your book as well as your photos through the Library of Congress on the internet ) well then you don't have to pay somebody to do the cover of your book . I really do think you should self-publish through the on-demand publishing and the reason is it might save you money in the long run but I'm not sure . I mean , you could get really lucky with a publishing house that will promote you and pay for you to do the tours onto the morning TV shows and what not to promote the book and to do public readings at various major bookstores ... or you could book those yourself and just be your own promoter and manager ? I've known several people who have published books but regrettably now I only know one and I haven't spoken to her in a couple years but she was not satisfied with her publishing company but didn't explain why . She's a very honest person so I would say you might want to avoid a publishing company called Page . And yes if you could do an audio book for it and have it monetized here on TH-cam a lot of people many many people would certainly listen to the whole thing ... I know I certainly would .
I have a similar story to yours..... I was 21 years old when I first started using and the very first time I used I injected I.V. I've been sober for almost 18 years (August 10 will be 18 years) I'm so blessed to be alive and living the life I have. I'm happily married and am fully thriving. I'm so happy that you're doing well and living your best life!
I feel every bit of your story. I actually went the other way with my DOC. I started with the OC 80 sprinkled with some Roxy 30 on the daily and fought that for almost 20 years. I eventually graduated to H and it had me hooked line and sinker. I went to rehab 5 times in the first 6 months of 2022. I had never done powder up to that point because I loved the opiates. After being separated from the H for the last time I swore I would not go back to anything that I could get physically attached to. I was offered powder and tried it and I loved the energy it gave me so I continued to use it in powder form until I was introduced to it in rock form. I became a crack addict in less than a week. It had me in its grip with no chance of letting go. I had stolen and pawned things before but this was on another level. I wanted to do nothing but smoke rock all day everyday. Even if I wanted to do something else it wasn’t possible because I couldn’t keep that little glass pipe out of my mouth. It took a bottom sufficient enough for me after all these years to finally relinquish control to God over my life. My sobriety date is 02/03/23 and not looking back. Thank you so much for your story as it can help give hope to someone struggling. God bless you
I had a friend who went through the same thing years ago . He had already had addictions in the past and so when he told me he was cooking crack for some people I knew he was also using it and then when I saw him my God he was so emaciated and I knew it was true about him using it . Then he vanished for over 2 years and told me what happened : He hated being an addict and he said he was in his living room praying out loud to Jesus please let him die if he can't get him off the drugs and he said just then the cops busted down his door and off to jail and then to prison he went . He said he was actually glad when they showed up at his door . I haven't seen him in years but I hope he is well and I hope he is free from addictions .
Congratulations on staying clean .I myself is currently a heroin user, 15yrs . I’ve done crack before but here’s the thing……I feel(and this is just how I personally feel about crack.everyone is different) I feel that crack is addictive but nowhere as addictive as heroin. You don’t get withdrawals from crack.heroin on the other hand,is the WORST and the best drug at the same time. I KNOW it’s time for me to put the straw in the garbage,I’m 46yrs old and I definitely don’t want to be an addict for the rest of my life. May god continue to bless you 🙏
“Recipe for disaster, booty cheeks itchen” 😂😂😂😂 that’s so real. My butt was always full of scratches when I was a pilot popper. I was so proud of my addiction too, I thought I was so cool. How embarrassing! Im glad I found Yahweh
The people that leave the rude comments...do you EVER THINK about not projecting your insecurities on people? I mean, this woman is sharing this story for a reason. It's not easy. Stop nitpicking and calling her stupid names and give THE GRACE AND LOVE that YOU would want given to YOU. The world realllllly needs it! ❤❤❤
I appreciate your honesty. People really don’t understand addition and how it can all get started. I’m a nurse and I know nurses that went for surgeries and came out of the whole thing a drug addict.
First, thank you for being a nurse and for your contribution to healthcare… The healthcare system has changed so much and it’s the nurses who really keep everything together and I firmly stand behind that! I’ve seen it in my mom‘s office and in family friends, private practices… So Thank you for that! Additionally, you’re right, a lot of people don’t fully understand addiction and even though I try to put an entertaining or comedic spin on some of my stories, I tell them that way so that they won’t be boring and run flat. Nonetheless, it’s still a super serious subject matter and my point to sharing my story, because I was very ashamed and embarrassed at first, is to show that poor decision-making, and particularly addiction, do not discriminate. I had the perfect foundation to NOT become a drug addict and to understand the consequences of trying drugs! However, when I started, just like I explained my story and just like you explained about someone who goes into surgery and comes out with an addiction, I didn’t intend for one night of partying to become a full-blown addiction… People don’t understand that opiates in your system for seven days can lead to flu like symptoms once you stop and right there your body has become even the slightest bit dependent, which can then lead to catastrophic consequences. I know in your field of work you have probably seen more than all of us… All in all, I really appreciate your comment and your encouragement because sometimes the way I say things comes across as lighthearted or as if I don’t take it serious… And my point is just to make it entertaining so it’s consumable and digestible. So.. I appreciate comments like yours for the encouragement and support that your words give! Thanks so much again, much love and respect to you and your family and I hope you have a good weekend.❤️🙏🏼
Im glad to read people are getting sober or are now sober. Being on drugs cant be fun. Im glad i never smoked, drank alcohol or took drugs. Im glad youre in a better place and speaking to help people.
but they are fun....as Eminem said " ...i overdosed.... because drugs are delicious ". Having a drug habit is NOT fun tho; so i guess what you said was right, that BEING on drugs is not fun...well most of the time. Once you've scored and are ingesting/injecting then yeah, it's fun for maybe 10 mins. How confusing was that lol. Sorry. Anyway, am rapt to be part of the sober club now.
I’m in my 30’s and never tried anything. Majorly I think because of what they did to my oldest brother. He left home at 15 because of course my parents caught him and tried to help, then when my mom finally got a hold of him years and years later he was that homeless drug addict from the streets you mentioned. They tried to get him clean and while he tried, he couldn’t get his feet up, then he burned his house with him inside. My dad saved him and then it all happened over again until he got arrested for dealing. I never wanted to try, I was so scared to make my mom cry like she cried every night for him
How is your brother doing now ? Is he still struggling with addiction or has he been able to free himself ? Please don't tell me he passed away from an overdose ... or from being burned in a fire . Do you know how the fires got started ? Was his home a drug lab where he was the cook ? I'm sorry if I seem too nozy .
@@gardensofthegods he was high but already struggling with severe depression, he set it on fire while using because he wanted to die. The house was rented and he was living there. He is okay and alive, but he is in a Mexican jail and he may never come out.
@@mongdc jeeze that's sad that he wanted to die by fire ... not a pleasant way to go . But a shame he did that to somebody else's house . That's sad about him being in a prison especially one in a foreign country . I hope that somehow he can find joy and be able to get free from the Mexican prison and have a new lease on life
I really appreciate your honesty!! I’m a recovering opiate addict and I’m so very grateful for sobriety!! I just know that you are helping countless people by speaking out ❤
Thank you for not only your kind words, but you’re encouragement also. It’s hard for me to tell stories without animation/enthusiasm and sometimes people mistaking it for or making light of the situation. That’s never what I’m trying to do… I just try to tell things exactly the way they are, and I also understand the fact that in social media, if you don’t have some sort of color to your storytelling, then it will be boring because when I watch them for me comes across flat.. so I appreciate the fact that you can understand what I’m trying to do and appreciate it. Addiction is a very serious situation and should never be taken lightly, but I really want people to understand how easy it is to become addicted to a serious drug and how it can completely destroy your life within a matter of months! i’m so happy that you are in recovery and I send you nothing but loves and positive energy to continue your path and continue to live your best life because after the hell that I’m sure you’ve gone through, because we all did, you deserve nothing, but the absolute best. Be your best self, live the best version of your life, and continue to know that you are stronger than any substance. Much love and respect to you from the bottom of my heart and thank you again for supporting and encouraging me ❤️✊🏼🙏🏼
That’s the thing…people say addiction is a choice, but plenty of people don’t even know what they’re taking, when they try something. These days, more people are addicted to fentanyl than H, and sometimes they’re told it’s coke or speed. Dope is mixed in with everything, now. A Canadian study found it was mixed into 95% of hard drugs. A lot of the U.S. has the same problem of not being able to identify what you’re putting in. I, too, acquired an opioid use disorder, without thinking that’s what I was doing. I was going to the doctor for an injury. The route to addiction you’ve mentioned is so common. Young people rarely think of what friends are doing as having anything to do with what people who sleep in the subways are doing. Yes, people are dying, but if it hasn’t happened in their social circle (yet), a lot of people don’t think their friends, family (another common story), or partner would give them anything like that. I’m not saying you don’t take responsibility for your decisions. Obviously, you do, but the actions of your then-boyfriend are a good lesson that we all need to be aware that plenty of people we know and trust not to hurt us, intentionally, use substances that might be addictive and dangerous. It’s sad that we have to be on such high alert, and can’t just go and relax and turn up, like other people do, but none of us comes with a warning label that says we’re at high risk of addiction, and to what substance (though if a parent does, there’s a 50% chance. I decided to study 📚 addiction 🥃 💉💊💨, because I wanted to know what the h happened to me, and what I could do to help myself and others who, I guarantee, did not think, “I want to be an addict, and go to prison and rehab.” There are people who want to seem edgy and embody a certain chic that comes with using certain drugs, socially, but they don’t ever know the feeling of being utterly miserable and worthless that comes with it or they’d know it was a lot worse than people thinking you’re boring and naive. Nobody wants to feel like addiction actually feels, and never imagine that what they’re doing, in the moment, will lead to that, so people need to stop thinking others freely choose it, and figure out how it really goes, before it happens to them. Thanks for educating people. It really helps! I quit the same way you did (and how most of us do)…in jail, with a prison term over my head. How I stayed quit was I found out there’s no painless way to do it and the cravings are do to your neurobiology, not because you “don’t really want to quit.” You have to starve the part of your brain that’s demanding it, until it figures that substance is no longer available in your habitat (we are human animals). Then, it stops telling us to go get it, all the time. On average, this takes 1-3 years. There’s nothing wrong with using Suboxone or methadone, if it helps, either, but now they’ve got tranq mixed in with fentanyl, and it’s a whole other addiction those meds don’t help with. Everyone underestimates how hard it is to make it through those first years of sobriety, unless they’ve been through it, because Substance Use Disorder is the hardest mental state to imagine. It’s like entering the Twilight Zone. So glad you got out! I don’t wish what we’ve been through on anyone, but it’s huge that you’ve made it into something positive. I hope people can learn from our mistakes, instead of having to go through it themselves. ❤
Thank you for your post. I’m on methadone and I feel embarrassed to tell others my story cuz I was to the point I was stealing used fentanyl patches and eating them for the relief of sickness. It was terrible. It’s a place in my life I never like to remember or tell people. I really liked reading your input.
@@lisssoakie8419girl! Don't be embarrassed! Ur story can help others! Addiction makes everyone do things they wouldn't normally. Been there done that. Proud of u!!! Alot of ppl don't make it back, don't ever be embarrassed for what u overcame! ❤
THANK YOU 👏👏👏👏 FOR TELLING UR STORY SO PPL STOP THINKING IT CANT HAPPEN TO THEM! SOME PPL CAN DO THINGS ONCE AND NEVER THINK ABOUT IT AGAIN. OTHERS CANNOT. ITS LITERALLY WRITTEN IN YOUR DNA! IT DOESNT DISCRIMINATE AND YOUR SO BLESSED TO BE ALIVE! YOUR GORGEOUS AND YOU GOT THIS.
I've been there with the withdrawals and saying you were sick is putting it mildly. That is a sick where you litterally think you are going to die and almost hope you will so it will be over. That is the reason people stay addicts fortunately now there are things you can take to spare you that hell.
Yes!!!! Withdrawal is the fkn worst,total hell just like you said. Yeah thankfully they do have medicine for you to take so you don’t get sick but you are just switching from one drug to another.YOU ARE STILL AN ADDICT.Only difference is that one is Legal and the other is not. Prayers 🙏 and 🫶 from Chicago
Great content! Love watching your videos and interviews. I can relate so so much and my story is almost identical. I turned my life around and now making legal Dr./Lawyer money and have everything I ever dreamed of. But above all I have happiness I’ve never experienced. Keep up the hard work and keep on this path your on.
Immediate follow! I have 7 years clean and 10 years sober. Thank you for sharing your story!! Addiction doesn’t discriminate… trust me. It comes for every race and social status.
Hey girl nice to meet you. This is my first of your videos. What a story I would love to hear more. You should be so proud, you have come a long way. Many need to hear you. May God Bless you and your family.
So glad to hear you are well..I just recently lost someone who was addicted..a little of this and a bit of that..a troubled and tortured soul..unfortunately with 2 beautiful children...I do not know where they are...my words and actions were not enough..they were viewed with contempt...and led to a falling out..stuck feeling I did not do enough..
Come on now don't blame yourself . The fact that they had a falling out with you because they didn't want to hear the truth should be proof to you that you did all you could . And you know when those people suffer from addictions they are not themselves and you are dealing with the drug and the addiction ... you are dealing with the horrible grip that has on them . Don't blame yourself when you did what you could to the point of making it turn against you . I hope someday you will be able to find out what happened to the children so that you can keep in touch with them and tell them about what a wonderful person their parent was despite their addiction .
Jen, I am a new subscriber. How fabulous to have found your story. You are an inspiration. Please carry on. Smiles, and serenity to you and your family.💫💥💛💫🧡💥❤
I am an immigrant from Moscow, Russia. Most of my friends were immigrants like me - Russian speaking Ukrainians, Armenians, etc. Many of us got strung in the 90s together. Out of all those people many died, many got deported and just a couple - are still here to tell the story. P.S. I am sure you hear this all the time but here is one more time - you are absolutely gorgeous.
'Im glad you are sober now since I know you were looking at alot of drug charges as well as theft charges before you went to prison glad those heroin charges were dropped against you.
Girl I got into a couple accidents at 30 years old. This was in the early 2000's. I started on Vicodin, then went to Percocet and then I was introduced to Roxy 30's. I was functioning and working while taking 35 a day. I then got prescribed Dilaudid. I was getting these from my pain doctors. Luckily I never stole from anyone but I did get 2 DUI's while on soma and xanies. Now this all happened before the database in Florida. Luckily I am alive and clean today. So proud of you girl!!!
I have an inner voice. We all do. That whisper says his conversation & actions is telling you that you are not that girl. I listen to that voice & my last visit was a i cannot do this with you anymore. I listened & he was russian. 😊
I accidentally took heroin one day. I listened to "Miles Davis On the Corner" and understood it. I enjoyed it. It was crazy (it's a horrible album). The next day I tried to listen to it again. The magic was gone, it was just noise again. I KNEW to never do that again, because like you said, I felt TOO good.
Boy what very vivid image….mouth is watering thinking of that feeling…WOW….such an incredible feeling…. I thought like you… as a young man in the 90’s that’s what I thought of H… dirty drug I thought but when the oxy’s hit at the turn of the century and the price was getting so high, a friend I asked for a pill said he didn’t have any but he had something that would heal me and was cheaper…. Well just like you said petrified of being sick….19 years later finally recovered
Love you Jenn!! We need more true crime!! And u should do current cases too!! And just all true crime! You’re just as good and intelligent, entertaining, all that as my favorites like Kendall Rea,Anne Elise, Christina Randel (who u remind me of too) You 2 should definitely do a collaboration! You girls would be so funny together!! Keep going girl! Been following u since the beginning, before you even had 1000! And pls do a video on what you use on your hair!!🔥
I was up to 60 30s a day. Then I switched to the other, by the grace of God I never went to prison, but I have 12 years clean now thank God I got caught up in the pill days as well. I had a dealer boyfriend who supplied me with everything I needed, so I never had to be on the streets. So I thought everything was good. Boy Was wrong and when I look back now I realize how lucky I was that I didn’t end up on the streets, but I was living in my own hell trying not to be sick every day. You don’t make the choice to become an attic, but you do make the choice to stop. I will say that. ❤
Your way of telling stories is seriously entertaining. I'm sorry you had to go through all that though. 😔 You remind me of the brazilian singer Anitta. 😁 God bless you!
She also tells the story on another Channel called something like True Crime with Andrew Cox but it does look like she tells it here as this is my second video and so I think she must tell the whole thing but then again this is only the second video of hers that I have watched
I absolutely dig your manic story delivery and like everyone, I appreciate a wild story and feel like I have a similar stash of wild stories that I accumulated and yet can't believe it happened despite experiencing it myself. .I know a good channel when I see it and you def got a sub from me.
@@gardensofthegods I know, I didn't know what to call it, so I went with the first synonym that came to my mind and moved on with my day... and here you are, you want to argue semantics with a non constructive criticism? you must be such a great person to talk with and hella fun to hang out with...
Thank you! I appreciate that you listened and your kind words as well. Some people get offended with my story sometimes because they think that I don’t have remorse or I’m trying to glorify some thing that’s criminal but that’s never the case… It’s just a fact that if you don’t tell stories with some degree of animation, they will just be flat and boring as hell… I’m already a naturally hyper, talkative, and animated person so it’s not that far-fetched for me to tell stories, but I can’t stand when it lands the wrong way with you guys and so comments like yours reallyencourage me and I appreciate it more than you know! Much love and respect to you and thank you for your encouragement.❤️🙏🏼
Love your stories Jen! I used to have this chic name on my chest and it was "Jen Jen" in big letters! So ironic!🤣 Haven't heard the term "Boy" an "Girl" in yrs!🤣 Keep em coming boo!
Thanks!! 🙏🏼 yeah, I figured that these terms would age me but it’s what we used to say back then so I had to use them lol I didn’t know what the heck they were at first, but once I knew, it was off and running to the races 🤦🏻♀️💔
Hey Jen Jen, yours’ is a great story. Good for you for being a survivor. Clearly, you have high intelligence, are definitely tough, and so very beautiful, wow! That’s the whole package. Best of luck in all you do👍🤜☘
Thank you so much for your kind words! I truly appreciate everything you said! Just to be honest and to be fair, there is a beauty mode on which doesn’t change my appearance, but it does smooth the skin out. I don’t have that skin and I don’t look any different in real life, but I don’t have perfectly flawless in either… I have four and I have wrinkles when I smile. It’s not a bad thing, but I just, leave the mode on when I it makes me feel good to see my skin so flawlessly perfect but if anyone ever comments, I at least want to share that it’s not as perfect as it appears because that can be discouraging to other people if they think that there are some of us walking around out here with flawless skin. Anyhow, thank you again for your kind words and much love and respect to you! 🙏🏼❤️
@@jenjengomezThis beautiful and honest essence in you is what makes you even more beautiful.. and makes all the success coming your way all the more deserved 🤍
@@jenjengomezthank you for your honesty which is so rare nowadays . You might want to try Noni juice powder and the reason I suggest that is because you can get it very cheaply where as the juice is so expensive . Usually about 6 hours after drinking a teaspoon of it in a tall glass of water the skin of my face feels as smooth as a baby's bottom . It's also called Indian Mulberry .
Bad associations can get people into a lot a trouble. The book “See You At The Top” by Zig Ziglar is an amazing book and has a great chapter on habits.
I was a meth user and used to see ninja police in the trees. I have been clean and sober for a long time now and thank God for every day that i am sober.
Being a Director of two addiction clinics I can see it. I see prescription pads everywhere. I'm much bosses kitchen in the bedroom in the desks. In the wrong curious hands I can see how people can become addicted especially children of doctors
I thank God everyday that my friends that were on meth never allowed me to use that. It was one incident and I never tried after. My older sister was a well known dealer. Those 2 drugs are what I call the soul stealers. Was in a marriage with an H person unknowingly. Total shit show. I made it out praise GOD.
Yeah my Dad struggled with alcoholism and I've known many others including my Ex . I'm glad you were able to fight the good fight . A lot of people don't even know that you can actually die from cold turkey alcohol withdrawals .
Very true. Recovery is possible 🙏. Ex firefighter for 4 plus years who needed 8 surgeries because of bad genetics and got dependent on oxycontin over course of a year while having surgeries done turned into 20 year heroin addiction. Been on methadone for a year and down to 8mgs from 60. Have been fortunate to have 4 years of therapy and a VERY supportive family. Addiction knows no bounds socio or economic. As hard as recovery is you and I are some of the lucky ones who are still alive recovering and fighting to make our lives meaningful and good again. May God bless you and have peace in your life ❤️.
@@bradpnw1897Very proud of you and please try Noni juice powder to help you with the cravings you can look it up but I would also tell you to look at this video but it seems it gets censored when I mention it but I'll try in another comment . It's also called Indian Mulberry .
You're the best! Thank you so much! And I love that you were the first for everything! You’ve been here with me for a long time and I appreciate you from the bottom of my heart and I really mean that! ❤️🥰✊🏼

I was in Active Opiate Addiction for 20+ years. Took ANYTHING I could get my hands on. I was wearing 3 of the 100 Fentanyl patches and taking about 30-50 pills a day. That wasn’t the worse of it though.. I was so sick of the vicious cycle, Drug Court, Withdrawals, going in & out of jail etc. I put myself into Detox in 2016. I’ll be 8 years Clean & Serene this October.
Respect what you've been through because I know. Love from the 🇬🇧
Mucho Respecto !
Ohhh my!! I just read the part of your post that mentioned the pain patches and mannnn that brings back nightmares of me lookin for them just so I could “eat them” and itcc be was such a nightmare time in my life that I’m so glad is over!! I’m so proud of you tooo!! Clean life is the BEST choice❤
Proud of you
Amazing! Keep on going… you are one of the 3%
I'm 16 years clean from H in October 2024. Congrats on everyone else's recovery! ❤👍🙏
Yes!!!!❤
I am so proud of you baby girl keep strong bless your journey in life!

Gz folks!
Gotta love Jen Jen and her honesty. 20 year heroin addict here who has been off H and Fent for almost a year. You rock Jen Jen keep kicking ass!!
20 yrs . Wow . God bless you and someone I loved for decades after he lost his life was a boyfriend of mine who I didn't even realize was a heroin addict until after we broke up .
... he was only about 36 when he lost his life to heroin .
Some other woman had the Nightmare Horror of waking up to him dead next to her in bed .
Congratulations a year is awesome!
Good for you! Keep it up! One day at a time! ❤👍
Not really, she tells it like it wasn’t really her and blames everyone else.
Shes no different to any other smackhead.
I am a recovering opiate addict..I have been clean for 17 years,and Just now listening to you describe withdrawals took me back to a time in my life that I try to forget..I had some medical issues that led me down my path of insanity and to be honest the only reason I am still alive is because of my mother's prayers..Thank you for sharing your experience,and just like you I had no what I was doing to my body until it was too late and I felt trapped.. Please keep sharing your life experiences because there are so many young ppl that need guidance and if you reach just one then that will be well worth your time and energy..
Thank you for sharing a little bit of your story… It’s insane how some of us become addicts in such a seemingly innocent way… I had no intentions of becoming an addict and I did not understand the severity of the choice. I made one night while I was partying. It was like a snowball that I did not see coming at all and before I knew it I couldn’t stop it. I know a lot of people that have become addicted to opiates as well from just how you described, a medical situation and it’s just all insanity because doctors and big Pharma I believe play a big part in keeping a lot of people addicted and subdued. Of course it’s not their fault if people become an addict, but these drugs are so dangerous and even as a 23 year old, I didn’t understand how serious one decision could be. Most of the time I talk about my prison journey, but I wanted to start talking about my addiction story as well because it’s a very serious one, it was a major part of my story, and it was a very hard battle to overcome. Thank you for your encouragement. Great job on recovering. I wish you nothing but the absolute best and The continued success in your walk. 17 years is a long time and I’m sure that your life is so much better now. Much love and respect to you and thank you again for your support and encouragement. 🙏🏼❤️
Stick with it, Judy 👍

I had bad back pain. So my Pain Management doctor prescript me monthly 120 10/325 Norco's. After 3-1/2 years my back started to feel better, so I started weening myself off them. After I took my last one I had 8 days of hell. My heart was pounding, my nose was running and I wasn't hungry. NOT WORTH IT!!
@@calken546I’m astounded that after 120 norco’s/month for 3-1/2 years you were able to get off on your own!! Well done!That’s incredible!!
Same. I started with prescription drugs and ended up on H…. I’m so grateful to have 4 years sober
Wow maybe you should write a book. You're a good storyteller.
Thank you for the encouragement… I’m actually writing one right now and I have some people reach out and try to help me write it, but they wanted to change some things around and make it a little bit more soft and fluffy… I didn’t like that idea, I don’t think people can benefit Like, or even dislike you unless they know the real authentic you so I’m trying to do it on my own and it’s taking a little bit longer as I have to learn all of the steps as I go, but I am doing it and I will definitely post when I have completed it. Nonetheless, thank you for the encouragement and the suggestion. I appreciate you! Much love and respect to you. ❤️🙏🏼
@@jenjengomezyessss!!! you reading your own book, like as an audiobook would be amazing. your voice, your intonation, it’s powerful
@@jenjengomez No to 'soft and fluffy'. Make it real.
@@jenjengomezJen I totally agree , you have to stay true to yourself and what's the point of telling a true story if it's going to be watered down .
Yes please write it in your own voice , your own words .
If you're good at editing you can edit and proofread it yourself .
If you have any photos or photos of your artwork that you get copyrighted ( and it's very easy to copyright your book as well as your photos through the Library of Congress on the internet ) well then you don't have to pay somebody to do the cover of your book .
I really do think you should self-publish through the on-demand publishing and the reason is it might save you money in the long run but I'm not sure .
I mean , you could get really lucky with a publishing house that will promote you and pay for you to do the tours onto the morning TV shows and what not to promote the book and to do public readings at various major bookstores ... or you could book those yourself and just be your own promoter and manager ?
I've known several people who have published books but regrettably now I only know one and I haven't spoken to her in a couple years but she was not satisfied with her publishing company but didn't explain why .
She's a very honest person so I would say you might want to avoid a publishing company called Page .
And yes if you could do an audio book for it and have it monetized here on TH-cam a lot of people many many people would certainly listen to the whole thing ... I know I certainly would .
Pretty lady.
I have a similar story to yours..... I was 21 years old when I first started using and the very first time I used I injected I.V. I've been sober for almost 18 years (August 10 will be 18 years) I'm so blessed to be alive and living the life I have. I'm happily married and am fully thriving. I'm so happy that you're doing well and living your best life!
I feel every bit of your story. I actually went the other way with my DOC. I started with the OC 80 sprinkled with some Roxy 30 on the daily and fought that for almost 20 years. I eventually graduated to H and it had me hooked line and sinker. I went to rehab 5 times in the first 6 months of 2022. I had never done powder up to that point because I loved the opiates. After being separated from the H for the last time I swore I would not go back to anything that I could get physically attached to. I was offered powder and tried it and I loved the energy it gave me so I continued to use it in powder form until I was introduced to it in rock form. I became a crack addict in less than a week. It had me in its grip with no chance of letting go. I had stolen and pawned things before but this was on another level. I wanted to do nothing but smoke rock all day everyday. Even if I wanted to do something else it wasn’t possible because I couldn’t keep that little glass pipe out of my mouth. It took a bottom sufficient enough for me after all these years to finally relinquish control to God over my life. My sobriety date is 02/03/23 and not looking back. Thank you so much for your story as it can help give hope to someone struggling. God bless you
I had a friend who went through the same thing years ago .
He had already had addictions in the past and so when he told me he was cooking crack for some people I knew he was also using it and then when I saw him my God he was so emaciated and I knew it was true about him using it .
Then he vanished for over 2 years and told me what happened :
He hated being an addict and he said he was in his living room praying out loud to Jesus please let him die if he can't get him off the drugs and he said just then the cops busted down his door and off to jail and then to prison he went .
He said he was actually glad when they showed up at his door .
I haven't seen him in years but I hope he is well and I hope he is free from addictions .
Congratulations on staying clean .I myself is currently a heroin user, 15yrs . I’ve done crack before but here’s the thing……I feel(and this is just how I personally feel about crack.everyone is different) I feel that crack is addictive but nowhere as addictive as heroin. You don’t get withdrawals from crack.heroin on the other hand,is the WORST and the best drug at the same time. I KNOW it’s time for me to put the straw in the garbage,I’m 46yrs old and I definitely don’t want to be an addict for the rest of my life. May god continue to bless you 🙏
“Recipe for disaster, booty cheeks itchen” 😂😂😂😂 that’s so real. My butt was always full of scratches when I was a pilot popper. I was so proud of my addiction too, I thought I was so cool. How embarrassing! Im glad I found Yahweh
The people that leave the rude comments...do you EVER THINK about not projecting your insecurities on people? I mean, this woman is sharing this story for a reason. It's not easy. Stop nitpicking and calling her stupid names and give THE GRACE AND LOVE that YOU would want given to YOU. The world realllllly needs it! ❤❤❤
Mija, I have never touched narcotics in my life, but safe to say that God took you away from all that! Thus, to God be the glory!
I appreciate your honesty. People really don’t understand addition and how it can all get started. I’m a nurse and I know nurses that went for surgeries and came out of the whole thing a drug addict.
First, thank you for being a nurse and for your contribution to healthcare… The healthcare system has changed so much and it’s the nurses who really keep everything together and I firmly stand behind that! I’ve seen it in my mom‘s office and in family friends, private practices… So Thank you for that! Additionally, you’re right, a lot of people don’t fully understand addiction and even though I try to put an entertaining or comedic spin on some of my stories, I tell them that way so that they won’t be boring and run flat. Nonetheless, it’s still a super serious subject matter and my point to sharing my story, because I was very ashamed and embarrassed at first, is to show that poor decision-making, and particularly addiction, do not discriminate. I had the perfect foundation to NOT become a drug addict and to understand the consequences of trying drugs! However, when I started, just like I explained my story and just like you explained about someone who goes into surgery and comes out with an addiction, I didn’t intend for one night of partying to become a full-blown addiction… People don’t understand that opiates in your system for seven days can lead to flu like symptoms once you stop and right there your body has become even the slightest bit dependent, which can then lead to catastrophic consequences. I know in your field of work you have probably seen more than all of us… All in all, I really appreciate your comment and your encouragement because sometimes the way I say things comes across as lighthearted or as if I don’t take it serious… And my point is just to make it entertaining so it’s consumable and digestible. So.. I appreciate comments like yours for the encouragement and support that your words give! Thanks so much again, much love and respect to you and your family and I hope you have a good weekend.❤️🙏🏼
Jen Jen Gomez doesn't know how many blessings God sent her way. Count your blessings. Continue the excellent work.
I think she does know and is very grateful she said this in an interview .
I have been clean for 22 years now. You found out, just like me. Thanks for your stories. Tommy from Chicago
10 years in Prison? You are the definition of unbreakable. Keep soaring high.
Youre a warrior, holy shit. Glad you made it out of that life alive, you seem to be a really good person, just had some bad cards dealt to ya.
Im glad to read people are getting sober or are now sober.
Being on drugs cant be fun.
Im glad i never smoked, drank alcohol or took drugs.
Im glad youre in a better place and speaking to help people.
but they are fun....as Eminem said " ...i overdosed.... because drugs are delicious ". Having a drug habit is NOT fun tho; so i guess what you said was right, that BEING on drugs is not fun...well most of the time. Once you've scored and are ingesting/injecting then yeah, it's fun for maybe 10 mins.
How confusing was that lol. Sorry.
Anyway, am rapt to be part of the sober club now.
@ceeejay9112 thank you for writing. Glad your better now. Please don't go back.
@@arfriedman4577 thankyou!! ...and no, there's no going back for me
Jen, you have such a cute, fun way of telling your story, but you are also getting important messages out. Great job!
Wow 10 years in prison!! Wasn't expecting that!! U r so strong and SOOOO beautiful ❤️
You are beautiful. Your voice is soothing and you’re a wonderful story teller. I’m glad you’re doing great now.
You are so entertaining! Who needs Hulu?! 😂
I’m in my 30’s and never tried anything. Majorly I think because of what they did to my oldest brother. He left home at 15 because of course my parents caught him and tried to help, then when my mom finally got a hold of him years and years later he was that homeless drug addict from the streets you mentioned. They tried to get him clean and while he tried, he couldn’t get his feet up, then he burned his house with him inside. My dad saved him and then it all happened over again until he got arrested for dealing. I never wanted to try, I was so scared to make my mom cry like she cried every night for him
How is your brother doing now ? Is he still struggling with addiction or has he been able to free himself ?
Please don't tell me he passed away from an overdose ... or from being burned in a fire .
Do you know how the fires got started ? Was his home a drug lab where he was the cook ? I'm sorry if I seem too nozy .
@@gardensofthegods he was high but already struggling with severe depression, he set it on fire while using because he wanted to die. The house was rented and he was living there. He is okay and alive, but he is in a Mexican jail and he may never come out.
@@mongdc jeeze that's sad that he wanted to die by fire ... not a pleasant way to go .
But a shame he did that to somebody else's house .
That's sad about him being in a prison especially one in a foreign country .
I hope that somehow he can find joy and be able to get free from the Mexican prison and have a new lease on life
Incredible story.
May God continue to bless you and your family.
I really appreciate your honesty!! I’m a recovering opiate addict and I’m so very grateful for sobriety!! I just know that you are helping countless people by speaking out ❤
Thank you for not only your kind words, but you’re encouragement also. It’s hard for me to tell stories without animation/enthusiasm and sometimes people mistaking it for or making light of the situation. That’s never what I’m trying to do… I just try to tell things exactly the way they are, and I also understand the fact that in social media, if you don’t have some sort of color to your storytelling, then it will be boring because when I watch them for me comes across flat.. so I appreciate the fact that you can understand what I’m trying to do and appreciate it. Addiction is a very serious situation and should never be taken lightly, but I really want people to understand how easy it is to become addicted to a serious drug and how it can completely destroy your life within a matter of months! i’m so happy that you are in recovery and I send you nothing but loves and positive energy to continue your path and continue to live your best life because after the hell that I’m sure you’ve gone through, because we all did, you deserve nothing, but the absolute best. Be your best self, live the best version of your life, and continue to know that you are stronger than any substance. Much love and respect to you from the bottom of my heart and thank you again for supporting and encouraging me ❤️✊🏼🙏🏼
@@jenjengomezthank you for such a beautiful response!! By the way, most of us love hearing your longer stories so please bring them back ❤❤
@@jenjengomez so glad that those life savers did just that!!
I'm so paranoid, it's mind boggling that people take drugs without knowing what the hell it is. People are wild!
That’s the thing…people say addiction is a choice, but plenty of people don’t even know what they’re taking, when they try something. These days, more people are addicted to fentanyl than H, and sometimes they’re told it’s coke or speed. Dope is mixed in with everything, now. A Canadian study found it was mixed into 95% of hard drugs. A lot of the U.S. has the same problem of not being able to identify what you’re putting in. I, too, acquired an opioid use disorder, without thinking that’s what I was doing. I was going to the doctor for an injury. The route to addiction you’ve mentioned is so common. Young people rarely think of what friends are doing as having anything to do with what people who sleep in the subways are doing. Yes, people are dying, but if it hasn’t happened in their social circle (yet), a lot of people don’t think their friends, family (another common story), or partner would give them anything like that. I’m not saying you don’t take responsibility for your decisions. Obviously, you do, but the actions of your then-boyfriend are a good lesson that we all need to be aware that plenty of people we know and trust not to hurt us, intentionally, use substances that might be addictive and dangerous. It’s sad that we have to be on such high alert, and can’t just go and relax and turn up, like other people do, but none of us comes with a warning label that says we’re at high risk of addiction, and to what substance (though if a parent does, there’s a 50% chance. I decided to study 📚 addiction 🥃 💉💊💨, because I wanted to know what the h happened to me, and what I could do to help myself and others who, I guarantee, did not think, “I want to be an addict, and go to prison and rehab.” There are people who want to seem edgy and embody a certain chic that comes with using certain drugs, socially, but they don’t ever know the feeling of being utterly miserable and worthless that comes with it or they’d know it was a lot worse than people thinking you’re boring and naive. Nobody wants to feel like addiction actually feels, and never imagine that what they’re doing, in the moment, will lead to that, so people need to stop thinking others freely choose it, and figure out how it really goes, before it happens to them. Thanks for educating people. It really helps! I quit the same way you did (and how most of us do)…in jail, with a prison term over my head. How I stayed quit was I found out there’s no painless way to do it and the cravings are do to your neurobiology, not because you “don’t really want to quit.” You have to starve the part of your brain that’s demanding it, until it figures that substance is no longer available in your habitat (we are human animals). Then, it stops telling us to go get it, all the time. On average, this takes 1-3 years. There’s nothing wrong with using Suboxone or methadone, if it helps, either, but now they’ve got tranq mixed in with fentanyl, and it’s a whole other addiction those meds don’t help with. Everyone underestimates how hard it is to make it through those first years of sobriety, unless they’ve been through it, because Substance Use Disorder is the hardest mental state to imagine. It’s like entering the Twilight Zone. So glad you got out! I don’t wish what we’ve been through on anyone, but it’s huge that you’ve made it into something positive. I hope people can learn from our mistakes, instead of having to go through it themselves. ❤
Thank you for your post. I’m on methadone and I feel embarrassed to tell others my story cuz I was to the point I was stealing used fentanyl patches and eating them for the relief of sickness. It was terrible. It’s a place in my life I never like to remember or tell people. I really liked reading your input.
Well done ❤
@@lisssoakie8419girl! Don't be embarrassed! Ur story can help others! Addiction makes everyone do things they wouldn't normally. Been there done that. Proud of u!!! Alot of ppl don't make it back, don't ever be embarrassed for what u overcame! ❤
BS!!
You know EXACTLY what you’re taking! You know it’s drugs, you know it’s not something you’ve ever been given before.
Stop playing the victim.
Congratulations on your TH-cam channel taking off 🛫 🙌
Glad to hear you’re all good now. You’re a great storyteller
Youre videos are sad but surprisingly very refreshing. Just write the damn book already Jen jen
Chile I’m new here!! What a rollercoaster‼️ Much love to you.
THANK YOU 👏👏👏👏 FOR TELLING UR STORY SO PPL STOP THINKING IT CANT HAPPEN TO THEM! SOME PPL CAN DO THINGS ONCE AND NEVER THINK ABOUT IT AGAIN. OTHERS CANNOT. ITS LITERALLY WRITTEN IN YOUR DNA! IT DOESNT DISCRIMINATE AND YOUR SO BLESSED TO BE ALIVE! YOUR GORGEOUS AND YOU GOT THIS.
I've been there with the withdrawals and saying you were sick is putting it mildly. That is a sick where you litterally think you are going to die and almost hope you will so it will be over. That is the reason people stay addicts fortunately now there are things you can take to spare you that hell.
Yes!!!! Withdrawal is the fkn worst,total hell just like you said. Yeah thankfully they do have medicine for you to take so you don’t get sick but you are just switching from one drug to another.YOU ARE STILL AN ADDICT.Only difference is that one is Legal and the other is not. Prayers 🙏 and 🫶 from Chicago
I had a dream about u last night!!
Thank you for sharing. I’ve been clean since 2018 from H ❤
They helped right into handcuffs! ❤. Your too much!;; and I am here for it!
Great content! Love watching your videos and interviews. I can relate so so much and my story is almost identical. I turned my life around and now making legal Dr./Lawyer money and have everything I ever dreamed of. But above all I have happiness I’ve never experienced.
Keep up the hard work and keep on this path your on.
Immediate follow! I have 7 years clean and 10 years sober. Thank you for sharing your story!! Addiction doesn’t discriminate… trust me. It comes for every race and social status.
Proud of you! Blessings to you and your family
Thank you thank you for telling your story! You are such an amazing woman. May God continue to bless you and your family 🙏🩷🙏!
Damn your storytelling is 🔥
Thank you for your story, beautiful girl. You're helping in so many different ways.💕
Your stories are very awesome and helpful and your intelligent woman God Bless
Hey girl nice to meet you. This is my first of your videos. What a story I would love to hear more. You should be so proud, you have come a long way. Many need to hear you. May God Bless you and your family.
Love from Chicago ❤
So glad to hear you are well..I just recently lost someone who was addicted..a little of this and a bit of that..a troubled and tortured soul..unfortunately with 2 beautiful children...I do not know where they are...my words and actions were not enough..they were viewed with contempt...and led to a falling out..stuck feeling I did not do enough..
Come on now don't blame yourself . The fact that they had a falling out with you because they didn't want to hear the truth should be proof to you that you did all you could .
And you know when those people suffer from addictions they are not themselves and you are dealing with the drug and the addiction ... you are dealing with the horrible grip that has on them .
Don't blame yourself when you did what you could to the point of making it turn against you .
I hope someday you will be able to find out what happened to the children so that you can keep in touch with them and tell them about what a wonderful person their parent was despite their addiction .
Jen, I am a new subscriber. How fabulous to have found your story. You are an inspiration. Please carry on. Smiles, and serenity to you and your family.💫💥💛💫🧡💥❤
great storyteller... fascinating!
Interesting, you look good btw & glad you bounce back from recovery
Thanks for sharing your journey. Im happy you came out of it!Jen, what is your lipstick and mascara, please.🙏🏼
I am an immigrant from Moscow, Russia. Most of my friends were immigrants like me - Russian speaking Ukrainians, Armenians, etc. Many of us got strung in the 90s together.
Out of all those people many died, many got deported and just a couple - are still here to tell the story.
P.S. I am sure you hear this all the time but here is one more time - you are absolutely gorgeous.
'Im glad you are sober now since I know you were looking at alot of drug charges as well as theft charges before you went to prison glad those heroin charges were dropped against you.
Super brave to share
I love your honesty. You are so genuine
Oh my. I was not expecting all of that 😂😅
Girl I got into a couple accidents at 30 years old. This was in the early 2000's. I started on Vicodin, then went to Percocet and then I was introduced to Roxy 30's. I was functioning and working while taking 35 a day. I then got prescribed Dilaudid. I was getting these from my pain doctors. Luckily I never stole from anyone but I did get 2 DUI's while on soma and xanies. Now this all happened before the database in Florida. Luckily I am alive and clean today. So proud of you girl!!!
So good love your stories
I have an inner voice. We all do. That whisper says his conversation & actions is telling you that you are not that girl. I listen to that voice & my last visit was a i cannot do this with you anymore. I listened & he was russian. 😊
I'm so happy you are a better person now
Your hilarious with a good message,your gorgeous aswell ❤
I accidentally took heroin one day. I listened to "Miles Davis On the Corner" and understood it. I enjoyed it. It was crazy (it's a horrible album). The next day I tried to listen to it again. The magic was gone, it was just noise again. I KNEW to never do that again, because like you said, I felt TOO good.
Love your channel, bring your mom on❤
What lip gloss is that? It’s beautiful 😍
Boy what very vivid image….mouth is watering thinking of that feeling…WOW….such an incredible feeling…. I thought like you… as a young man in the 90’s that’s what I thought of H… dirty drug I thought but when the oxy’s hit at the turn of the century and the price was getting so high, a friend I asked for a pill said he didn’t have any but he had something that would heal me and was cheaper…. Well just like you said petrified of being sick….19 years later finally recovered
This is giving movie vibes!!!
That’s really all it takes, is one time. I’ve never tried H and never will god willing ❤glad ur sober now
Love you Jenn!! We need more true crime!! And u should do current cases too!! And just all true crime! You’re just as good and intelligent, entertaining, all that as my favorites like Kendall Rea,Anne Elise, Christina Randel (who u remind me of too) You 2 should definitely do a collaboration! You girls would be so funny together!! Keep going girl! Been following u since the beginning, before you even had 1000! And pls do a video on what you use on your hair!!🔥
I was up to 60 30s a day. Then I switched to the other, by the grace of God I never went to prison, but I have 12 years clean now thank God
I got caught up in the pill days as well. I had a dealer boyfriend who supplied me with everything I needed, so I never had to be on the streets.
So I thought everything was good. Boy Was wrong and when I look back now I realize how lucky I was that I didn’t end up on the streets, but I was living in my own hell trying not to be sick every day. You don’t make the choice to become an attic, but you do make the choice to stop. I will say that. ❤
Root cause of all addictions is BIG EGO. This is why the cure is ego deflation which is what 12 step programs do.
Thank you for sharing this. ❤️
Truly great story teller 😂 bless you 🙏 ❤️
Awesome post about drug abuse and withdrawal, you had me laughing so hard 😅

She also tells the story on another Channel called something like True Crime with Andrew Cox but it does look like she tells it here as this is my second video and so I think she must tell the whole thing but then again this is only the second video of hers that I have watched
good story....... life is crazy isn't it.
I need more more more!!!
I absolutely dig your manic story delivery and like everyone, I appreciate a wild story and feel like I have a similar stash of wild stories that I accumulated and yet can't believe it happened despite experiencing it myself. .I know a good channel when I see it and you def got a sub from me.
I don't think I would have ever considered it as manic story tellig , no .
@@gardensofthegods I know, I didn't know what to call it, so I went with the first synonym that came to my mind and moved on with my day... and here you are, you want to argue semantics with a non constructive criticism? you must be such a great person to talk with and hella fun to hang out with...
I actually listened to this lol 😂 you good story teller
Thank you! I appreciate that you listened and your kind words as well. Some people get offended with my story sometimes because they think that I don’t have remorse or I’m trying to glorify some thing that’s criminal but that’s never the case… It’s just a fact that if you don’t tell stories with some degree of animation, they will just be flat and boring as hell… I’m already a naturally hyper, talkative, and animated person so it’s not that far-fetched for me to tell stories, but I can’t stand when it lands the wrong way with you guys and so comments like yours reallyencourage me and I appreciate it more than you know! Much love and respect to you and thank you for your encouragement.❤️🙏🏼
It’s okay everyone goes

You will be alright :)
Love your stories Jen! I used to have this chic name on my chest and it was "Jen Jen" in big letters! So ironic!🤣
Haven't heard the term "Boy" an "Girl" in yrs!🤣
Keep em coming boo!
Thanks!! 🙏🏼 yeah, I figured that these terms would age me but it’s what we used to say back then so I had to use them lol I didn’t know what the heck they were at first, but once I knew, it was off and running to the races 🤦🏻♀️💔
Lol!! It's good that you did your bid an got up out of there.
Hey Jen Jen, yours’ is a great story. Good for you for being a survivor. Clearly, you have high intelligence, are definitely tough, and so very beautiful, wow! That’s the whole package. Best of luck in all you do👍🤜☘
Amazing Complexion, Beautiful amazing glowing eyes, Silk hair, truly a stunning top model quality girl.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I truly appreciate everything you said! Just to be honest and to be fair, there is a beauty mode on which doesn’t change my appearance, but it does smooth the skin out. I don’t have that skin and I don’t look any different in real life, but I don’t have perfectly flawless in either… I have four and I have wrinkles when I smile. It’s not a bad thing, but I just, leave the mode on when I it makes me feel good to see my skin so flawlessly perfect but if anyone ever comments, I at least want to share that it’s not as perfect as it appears because that can be discouraging to other people if they think that there are some of us walking around out here with flawless skin. Anyhow, thank you again for your kind words and much love and respect to you! 🙏🏼❤️
@@jenjengomezThis beautiful and honest essence in you is what makes you even more beautiful.. and makes all the success coming your way all the more deserved 🤍
@@jenjengomezstay real! Refreshing now days as it’s rare
@@jenjengomezthank you for your honesty which is so rare nowadays .
You might want to try Noni juice powder and the reason I suggest that is because you can get it very cheaply where as the juice is so expensive .
Usually about 6 hours after drinking a teaspoon of it in a tall glass of water the skin of my face feels as smooth as a baby's bottom .
It's also called Indian Mulberry .
Aside from having many benefits and you can look it up it also is said to help break addictions to alcohol , nicotine ... and opiates .
Bad associations can get people into a lot a trouble. The book “See You At The Top” by Zig Ziglar is an amazing book and has a great chapter on habits.
Wow congratulations!
Oh damn girl. Glad you're better! How did u get the 30 pills a day?
I was a meth user and used to see ninja police in the trees. I have been clean and sober for a long time now and thank God for every day that i am sober.
I’ve had this same experience I thought there were cops in the trees outside my apartment and it was the same thing
Being a Director of two addiction clinics I can see it. I see prescription pads everywhere. I'm much bosses kitchen in the bedroom in the desks. In the wrong curious hands I can see how people can become addicted especially children of doctors
Brown coke lmao dang. I've never done drugs but this popped up. I appreciate her sharing her story tho .
I thank God everyday that my friends that were on meth never allowed me to use that. It was one incident and I never tried after. My older sister was a well known dealer. Those 2 drugs are what I call the soul stealers. Was in a marriage with an H person unknowingly. Total shit show. I made it out praise GOD.
Recovering alcoholic here. Liquor is no better. It beat the hell out of me in withdrawal. Congratulations on your sobriety addiction sucks!
Yeah my Dad struggled with alcoholism and I've known many others including my Ex .
I'm glad you were able to fight the good fight .
A lot of people don't even know that you can actually die from cold turkey alcohol withdrawals .
“My booty cheeks were itching.” 😂😂😂😂
MD n recovery for H addiction. Doesn’t care about social status, education, withdrawals r hellacious.
Very true. Recovery is possible 🙏. Ex firefighter for 4 plus years who needed 8 surgeries because of bad genetics and got dependent on oxycontin over course of a year while having surgeries done turned into 20 year heroin addiction. Been on methadone for a year and down to 8mgs from 60. Have been fortunate to have 4 years of therapy and a VERY supportive family. Addiction knows no bounds socio or economic. As hard as recovery is you and I are some of the lucky ones who are still alive recovering and fighting to make our lives meaningful and good again. May God bless you and have peace in your life ❤️.
@@bradpnw1897Very proud of you and please try Noni juice powder to help you with the cravings you can look it up but I would also tell you to look at this video but it seems it gets censored when I mention it but I'll try in another comment .
It's also called Indian Mulberry .
It's a 10 minute animated video cleverly done that explains how it works on the system ... it's on the Balu Kudroli channel
It's called Indian Mulberry the most powerful medicinal fruit on the planet .
And if you can find the powder it is much much cheaper than the juice believe me .
