  • Kelly knows all about addiction. She opens up about her life, including growing up in Los Angeles while both of her parents were addicted to drugs. She started running away at 13. At 16, she met a group of kids who were from California, and they all started hopping trains, traveling all over the country. She fell in live with the Grateful Dead and would follow them when they were touring. She ultimately got addicted to drugs herself and found herself homes on the streets of Baltimore, MD. She talks about the struggles that come along with that life.

      @@unheardvoices_official Her raw honesty & self awareness/ emotional intelligence is evident despite the situation she is (currently) in. By the grace of God go all of us. Drugs are a bloody scourge. It feels like humanity is going in the wrong direction these times. To remove the chemical dependency is only one element. Trying to restore self esteem, purpose & the frailties of the human condition too is a tall order but worth fighting for. It's frustrating & troubling to think she is bouncing from one rehab to another yet not staying off hard drugs. She is clearly an intelligent & bright person. Please God she can get her life back on track. 🙏

      can u explain how its so much different from kensington? i know what scramble is its the cheaper mix correct?

    • @unheardvoices_official
      @unheardvoices_official  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @ldillon9207 Yes, it's cheaper. Scramble is primarily used for shooting, I believe, while raw is used for shooting most of the time. I don't think Baltimore is too much different than Kensington in the sense that both are really bad with a drug and homeless problem. I'm from Maryland, so I'm used to Baltimore, I guess. Kensington was a complete shock to me when I first saw it.

    “My parents were addicts” that’s all you need to know to understand why this beautiful soul is so broken. Hard drugs are pure evil. The lives they destroy and the collateral damage they cause absolutely delight Satan. Christ is the only answer. 🙏

    You should do a interview in Hamden. That’s where I was raised. There’s a big problem there with opiates. A lot of good people. The Avenue and Roosevelt Park. Thirty years ago this young woman might have had a drinking problem, may be not but her life would have been so much better in a comfortable house with family and friends. Now it’s just a nightmare.
