I don't deserve to tell my story. However, hearing this makes me believe someday, someday ..I'll make some difference too. Sober for a year. Maybe, probably, more than ever, the struggle is harder than ever. I still keep on. I'm not going back. I worked so hard. My now, teenage kids speak to me. That's a better high than I've ever had.
Random , im sorry but miss,, EVERYONE.. EVVEERRYYOONNE, deserves to tell their story… I jus turned 28 12/12 , STILL in active addiction & can’t help but feel like I’m losing the fight. I prolly seen every single recovery story & addiction documentary on this website just for little glimpses of hope but this battle is individual & cunning .. we can’t do it alone, but no one but ourselves can get us out of it.. tell your story,, tell it long , clear and proud mam.. 1 YEAR IS A LIFETIME COMPARED THOSE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS!!!! Be proud of yourself, cuz im proud of you 😊.. be strong, hope to see your name & face on a thumbnail real soon 💯💪🏻👏🏼👏🏼❤️
I'm asking you to share your story you may not think you deserve to to it but others deserve to here it your a blessing and your life is beautiful your children are lucky to have you stay strong and share you may help save a life if not your own I believe in you stay the path keep focused and keep your eyes on the prize you can do this God bless
I seen Chris Herren ball as a High Schooler . What a great talent! Glad to see he turned his life around . Helping the youth avoid the fall he survived .
I wonder if people really know how much addicts like me suffer feeling alone... Trying to do the right thing and change... And how much it means to us hearing people like Chris share their story. Accepting the consequences of my actions and the losses I've experienced as a result are so hard for me to let go of. I'm exhausted living in the same pain that began 7 years ago. It just leads to more pain. One day I hope to be clean and sober and that the pain is finally over.
"You don't deserve a family".I think that's a bit extreme, leaving the people you love to protect them is admirable but saying you don't "deserve" a family just sounds as cold as the vacuum of space.
Space is not near as cold as the black hole of addiction his comment although cold was the absolute truth deep hard addiction robs you of everything including in many cases your life.
Charles, I hope this message finds you well. I have been addicted to many things, but The Lord Jesus Christ has taken those from me. He has strengthened me to not want those things. He loves you Charles. He knows your internal hurt and pain. He knows how others have written you off and judge you, when they themselves suffer with more “acceptable “ addictions. Sometimes, many times, when we are lonely, alone , forgotten, and depressed, it can be hard to even muster a word or two in prayer, but say, “Lord Jesus help me, Lord Jesus heal me”. Believe me this prayer is enough! Say it a hundred times a day, or whenever you can. Just muster the strength to call on Him with those words. He hears you and he is with the broken hearted. May The Lord guide you and send the right people and friends into your life to help you stay on track and help you live for Jesus and without those things that plague us. Blessings to you tonight! ❤️

Maybe. But that speech from that man helped save Chris Herren's life. And Chris got his family back. Watch Unguarded

He’s fortunate that when he was buying OxyContin it was not pressed with Fentanyl. He wouldn’t be around to help others now if that were the case.
I've known your story a long time. Brother i won't make it.
