    I met Moser around 2012 in LA. He was sitting on a wall at an intersection by the freeway in Westwood holding up a sign that said he was looking for work and that he was clean and sober. To this day I still dont know why - but I motioned him over and ending up taking him to my house to have him help string Christmas lights up on my roof. I had never before and have never since picked up anyone looking for work but there was something about his face that seemed almost babyish. Plus, this was a long time ago in LA crime years, if that makes any sense. Moser ended up becoming a friend to me and my kids and spent some afternoons and evenings hanging out at our house, sometimes doing odd jobs, sometimes just having a meal with us. He was a 21 year old kid with horribly stinky feet and an old soul.
    Moser played guitar and sang songs he made up and was just an all around cool and goofy guy. And very smart. When it was time for him to go I would just drive him back to his tent by the freeway. That's where he lived and refused to have it any other way. I loaned him money once and never expected to see it again but after he moved back to PA he sent me a letter with a check included for the exact amount, plus interest. Over the years he would write (never email) and send me copies of his different band's CDs asking me my opinion. He was a really good singer and an exceptional song-writer. He really could have made something of himself because he ABSOLUTELY had the talent.
    For many years after he went back to PA, I would sometimes drive past a Westside 7-11(he used to call certain 7-11 parking lots his "office") and I'd see some tall scrawny kid with long hair, and puppy dog eyes wearing a backwards baseball cap and I'd think "Well, it looks like Moser's back".
    I dont know. Maybe I could have done more, maybe I should have done less. Maybe it doesn't really matter because, in the end, people are just people. I miss him.

    I knew Moser for so long I know his first name.
    He was always on shit, but, healthy.
    We used to party in the “riot house” on wood street in Bethlehem.
    I was one of the low key people. I just ate my triple c’s and drank my alcohol. The shit that happened in that house is a doc on its own.
    Cris was crude, funny, silly, harmless to me, I was the cool lesbian chick. He went on to front a band, got clean for a while, and idk what happened between 2020 and now (met him in 2012ish) but omg I’m crying.
    I can’t even express. Seeing a friend like this after wondering what happened to him and his snarky comments on my social media. He’s holding back so much trauma. He comes off as the embodiment of hopeless addiction, but he has passions. He has a heart. And he’s hurting.
    If anyone sees him let him know I’m trying to reach him.
    The cool lesbian who met him at the riot house, Lindsey.

    I grew up with this man. He was a highly intelligent, extremely talented individual. He played 4 different instruments, played football and was the kindest person you could meet. He literally gave me the shirt off his back when I was in need. He had a lot of choices and he did pursue them for a while until he got bored and went back to the drugs. Its heartbreaking seeing someone so talented choose this path for themselves. Mos, you were loved and we miss you man.

    This breaks my heart.. he dated my older sister for a while and he was so in love with her.. she was his first love. They were engaged at a young age. During that time they were together him and I developed a brother/sister bond and always had so much fun together, til this day I still call him my big brother. I’m pretty sure we still have each other on FB marked as brother/sister lol. Unfortunately, things didn’t work out. Even though they didn’t work out he still made time to come see me and let me know he was always there for me no matter what.. and to give me my big hug!!
    He’s a very smart and intelligent man for sure. Anyone who knows him will tell you the same thing. One of the smartest people I know.
    I wish he never went to California.. but he had big dreams..
    Moser, (even though I always called you by your first name) if you see this just know I love you and care about you so much. I just want to come down there and pick you up and try to help you, I know you don’t want it, but I believe you can pull through this and get better if you really wanted to. I love you and miss you so much.. please be careful out there..
    Love, Selena ❤️

      From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,

    This man is the epitome, definition, embodiment, of a drug addict: a person experiencing chronic, progressive dependance to opiates. To someone like Mark who isnt an addict is so perplexed and has just a complete lack of comprehension to how or why he could have no hope. Mark and others without the burden of addiction, to them its like...there's gotta be something this person is missing. But when you love heroin or fentanyl more than literally LITERALLY anything and everything else in this life...nothing will stop that affair from continuing until they find that something they love more. And unless a divine intervention swoops in...a legit miracle.... this is death. Although tragic, incomprehensible, deeply sad... I do commend this man for speaking his truth.
    When he explained that he lost his voice by shooting in his neck which later he explains that's his voice or talking is his best and only thing he has to keep him going....he continues to take that from himself time and time again because the fentanyl in the moment is more important than keeping his last line of communication open and useful, a must-have in order to obtain his drugs...makes no sense.
    Addiction in a nutshell.
    No games, no excuses, his rock bottom doesn't exist. His honesty about his life is like a punch in the face. Somewhere along his journey he lost hope and all light.. he has embraced the darkness and will admit what most people on drugs are too ashamed to say but most all will feel hard inside. He loves being high. Being sober or having a clear mind is boring, unfufilling, he is at peace with what he created as a life for himself. I want to say I hope this man gets clean... but he has crossed that line where he has decided there's no life for him without fentanyl and I know that it's powerful enough to drown him without him struggling for breath. I hope he goes peacefully. And I hope the next life gives him a brighter perspective.

    Awesome interview, Mark! The comments here tell more about the commenters than about Moser. In the USA, people have it drilled into their brains from childhood that they have to be somebody. If they are not somebody, they are nobody. And there is nothing worse than that. In Buddhist temples, people work hard to discover that they aren't anyone, that trying to be someone is the core of human suffering. Sense of self is suffering. Moser seems to have figured this out already. He's surrendered to the true indifference of the universe...but his heart seems warm, his words ring true. TH-cam watchers look desperately to find some weakness in his story to validate their own story. For me.....Moser doesn't strike me as a liar. That's probably his main appeal...his honesty, his sincerity....a lot of women probably fell for him over the years....that honest charm. He's probably had some very good moments in his short life. That's why he's low on regrets.....and more or less ready to die. We all have to die eventually....unless you are waiting on Jesus and company. Well.....I would say....try not to judge people that you can't understand. We really understand much less than we think we do. We posture ourselves to think we know everything. We know very little.

      There is nothing brave about this. Let's stop glorifying this type of lifestyle. I understand it's his life and his choices but people need to stop being selfish. This life is not only about making yourself feel pleasure while putting those who love you through pain. Bravery is about facing the pain everyday and overcoming it by doing something great with your life and not escaping with drugs.

    I was so shocked this guy is from my neck of the woods… He’s about the same age as my oldest niece, about 9 years older than my oldest… My mom heart was breaking the whole time I watched this. Here’s this young, nice looking, obviously intelligent young man and he’s literally throwing away the precious gift he was given for drugs. Worse, he doesn’t even care… Then I was reading the comments, a lot from other locals who knew and love him, one from a random person who happened to pick him up out in California and had him over at Christmas… I wish he could see how his sweet, gentle ways, his silliness, his kindness, have touched so many people. Maybe he’d see that his work here ISN’T done, that he hasn’t done all that he wanted to do, that he could do so much more. What he offers people, the way he touches lives, that’s what people rarely see today and what people need most. He’s a special breed, like an angel here on earth (and I don’t say that lightly, I’m an atheist). I hope he has decided or will decide to get clean one day. I hope it’s not too late. He’s the kind of person this world needs and I’d like to see him stick around.

    i'm NOT a psychologist, but for some reason, i think Moser's 'drive' to stay high might be based on losing (romantic) love interests. some guys, when they lose their woman... etc., resort to self-destructive activities. he did say he had girls that took care of him (motherly love) but that they left.

I think he already knows the jig is up, a death wish of sorts. "I'm great at everything l do" is code for "l don't have the will to do anything else except shoot fentanyl into my collapsing veins". And yet, quick-minded and articulate. But every statement of positivity ends on negativity, "l'll either do something great....or I won't". My guess is sadly, he won't.

    Moser; You said you are done. What do you have to lose if you try to be another person, live another life away from the BS? You are a tough individual , you got one kick in you left! You got this...if you are good at everything, be good at living! You are 30...you have so much life left and there is so much more out there then LA and Kensington. God Bless you. ( by the way I am 4 years clean off of opiates..also was homeless, IV drug user)

    this dude is clearly super intelligent. unfortunately he seems to be too far gone but if he were to go back ten years it would be truly incredible to see what he could accomplish.

    I really hope you change your mind Moser. Ten years from now you can be married with a couple kids living a real life. Think real hard about it man, you're one of the good guys, the world needs more dudes like you Moser. Clean of course. Peace bro. Take it easy.
