I lived with this kind of toxic codependency for almost 10 years. It's very bittersweet. We shot dope together, chased drugs together, and got high together. We committed crimes together, went to jail together, and got clean together. We struggled to stay clean together, and relapsed together. The love was very real, very raw, and very tangible. Probably even more so than the love between a straight edge couple because of the amount of pain and sorrow we willfully brought on ourselves and endured through together. The same pain that ultimately tore us apart from each other forever. So, it's definitely true love and real love, but it's certainly not healthy or prosperous love. At all. Nothing good and pure can stay alive in a world of constant, repeated evil and deception. And that's what drugs are-- evil and deception.
This is the best comment ive seen in a long time. Gave me goosebumps because ive been through the same road. Like many others. Drugs is one hell of a world that nobody can understand unless you have truly lived it.
Sadly I know exactly what u mean😔It took being pregnant for me to realize I couldn't live that life with him anymore. I tried to wait for him to get his s*** together and put his daughter first like I did but I refused to wait forever and in the process of my pregnancy I got a place of my own, made it into a home and got every thing I could possibly need for my baby in the span of less then 5months and he's STILL doing what he was doing before I got pregnant and that was 9 YEARS ago! I've moved on with my life, and I have a beautiful life now with a man that has given my daughters & I EVERYTHING & more, including my 2nd baby. I feel sorry for my ex bc he's had another baby too and he's still in exactly the same spot I left him and that little girl has nowhere near the life I've built for my babies...but I couldn't wait any longer for him. My baby came first
Same !! With me & my man it was almost the same as yours, you know when. You don’t 💉 it still hard but it harder for the ones who do well they were coming to lock my man up and he made sure we were good u know n I wasn’t going to sell my self we have kids now so I got on methadone been clean 8 yrs been tapping off the mat now been together since O5 we went throw it for a yr with that devil ass rug !!
I remember Dawn. Been in the game for years. Wish her the best. As I was writing this comment, I decided not to comment on her looks. But then, Dawn and Art acknowledged her looks. She looks good despite being on the streets as long as she has. If she got clean, she would look even better.
Yea for everything she puts herself through I'm extremely astounded she looks as good as she does. She takes pretty good care of herself considering the circumstances and I'm sure if she was clean with a stable home, she'd turn heads everywhere she went
They are still human at the end of the day. They assume it's easier to go through homelessness/addiction with a partner. Not a good win percentage. If one gets clean the other either pulls them back or becomes a problem for the others sobriety long term because it's hard for them to leave one another.
19:28 Yooooo, he said she looks like she's a linebacker!!! 😂🤣 Had me cracking up over here yo! I like him. I could sit and rap with these two for hours.
😂😂😂 hahahaha I know right looking like a high Lawrence Taylor out there behind the line waiting to tackle the camera man lol…. That camera pan over had me dying as well 😂😂😂
@carlmorgan8452 there are people who have fell on hard times.half the people didn't have substance abuse issues,but some of the stories I heard were heartbreaking.when a wife takes the house,kids and money,your left with few choices to survive.some of the people I met were total garbage and deserved to be homeless.but some people just had a string of bad luck that lead them to their situation.thats when I learned that everyone has a story.
Brother Art, I really like you . I can see as a person you are a good guy. I like the way you talk to people. You're not disingenuous, you are real & just kind and i really appreciate that. You can see a HUGE difference between you & other interviewers.
New subscriber here, I think you’re doing a good job interviewing people. I watched you with ATM Fox & I just watched your video explaining why you left him. I think there’s enough room for both of your interviews, keep going strong, Art.👍👏👏🥰
That’s right. I don’t discount it, just because a couple has an addiction. I bet most sober people couldn’t stick together, through all the hardships these two have experienced.

I had to subscribe. I feel guilt and a sense of disgust to say I enjoy watching these videos and learning their stories but aside from the content itself, these videos are beautifully directed and incredibly captivating. Thank you for taking a genuine interest in the people you meet and treating them as such, it’s refreshing and it kind of felt eerily like I was standing in the conversation with you all, which is both haunting and incredible.
Thanks for the support, appreciated as always homie. Sadly my 2nd camera died and I was exhausted lol it was 1am and had been out there for several hours so wasn't on my A game by this point
@@carlmorgan8452. Thank you! It frustrates me to see comments like, “She’s right where she wants to be,” on channels like this. Nobody wants to be homeless and broke, because they have an addiction to feed. No matter how much you give it, it always wants more. No one dreams of this life, when they are kids.
It is! That’s a lot of why I was finally able to give it up, when I got the chance, but the main thing is I got the chance. A lot of people haven’t had a real chance. This country has got to do better than sending people back to the streets, after treatment.
Its a hardcore lifestyle been there like many others. You want to do better but the drugs really just get you and addiction is just next level. Some of the nicest people are addicts. I just say to the young ones please never pick up dope. Please..
I am in recovery, 10 years. My Brian wasn't ready for recovery. He passed of an OD 6 years ago. I had to let him go, so I could live. I have felt so guilty. If I had stayed I would likely be dead myself. I miss him everyday. I still haven't moved on. It's hard. I pray people stop looking for a high higher than Heroin. Or a high higher than fentanyl. I pray for these souls. I just don't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Im confused. Ive watched literally thousands of these video's. And Ive NEVER felt bad for any of them. For the first time, ever, I don't know why. I feel so bad for this girl.The look on her face. She looks defeated.Look at all the scars on her face. I almost wanna cry.
If you feel that concerned, sow into her life and send the homie Art some money to bless her with some clothes or hygiene products. Or send him a care package to give her. I'm sure he'd be down with that. Those care packages mean alot on them streets.
@@PeterAnthonyG Then you must not truly "feel bad" for her if you don't feel compelled enough to do what you can to help her. It's that simple. It's one thing to say something, it's another thing to actually do something. Actions speak much louder than words. I'm not trying to discredit your feelings at all, so please don't take it that way. But if you're going to publicly declare your sympathies for a complete stranger, one would think you'd want to help that complete stranger. I mean, haven't you ever felt the need to buy a homeless person a meal or walk up to them and talk to them just to share some kindness with them? If you were to have that feeling and then hold yourself back from carrying out the action, wouldn't those feelings be in vain?
I pray that she gets clean. I can’t imagine being a woman and on the street. My heart breaks for all battling addiction. I’m so grateful for my life, health, and home. All that noise would drive me nuts 😮. Take care Dawn ❤🙏🏾
I saw that, too! I’m so glad Amber didn’t die, man. I hope she doesn’t go through another OD. I hope she can make some meaning out of everything that’s happened and leave the streets and the drugs in her past.
Oh wow, my birthday is February 21 1984, a day before hers and I'm 40 as well. We were born 1 day apart and I can relate with her struggle. I know that afflicted, defeated look all too well. I wore it on my face for years. You literally feel less than zero-- which is the title of an amazing 80s movie about drug addiction starring Robert Downey Jr, BTW...
the file is corrupted from 5:45 - 5:50 smh its only 5 seconds but its making me want to delete and upload lol this happened to be the only time I didn't watch the video numerous times to check for errors before posting
Hey Brother Art! If you don’t mine me asking, are you also in recovery? (I am from pills so I’m genuinely asking, not just being nosy) Love the channel!
I am technically in recovery from alcohol. I drank to the point where I was developing liver issues. Enzyme levels were always bad. Fortunately for my health, I was put on drug court and forced to go to rehab for several months. I've been sober for a year and a half now, but I'll admit that's more due to the fact that I face prison time if I drink. But I do acknowledge that my habit was detrimental to my life and that I'm way more productive and successful without it.
@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel congrats on your success. I was a major alcoholic and addict but alcohol was the hardest to get off of and the most damaging to my body. Well done Fox! I love your videos. Be careful out there. ❤K
This is so sad😢 people shouldn't have to live like this. Shot, trafficked, kidnapped and rape and she still surviving, I don't think I could. 😥 She is a strong woman, I really hope she can get it together. ❤
Wow. I knew Ryan before he was in his addiction. I always wondered what happened to him because he was a great guy with a great sense of humor. We worked together for a few years. This is very sad to see.
There r so many levels to helping these people n government officials talk a good game but r the 1st to turn a blind eye. Nobody deserves life like this. I hope they can get the help they so desperately need b4 it’s too late.
This woman… if she could get away from this man she’s dating…he’s tranq rotting ffs. She needs to get away from this environment and these people. She could be okay-she just needs to get out of this world.
I believe her, because I’ve been out on the streets and I know that’s how it goes. I hope you can get indoors, Dawn, with your partner. I needed that to get off problematic substances, too. It wasn’t the best place, I found to stay. It had mold and pests and all that, but it wasn’t the streets. You can’t ask people to function in a healthy way, in the middle of a war zone. They need to help people with more services, after treatment. I hope I can use what time I have left to do that for people who are still out there. I had a job doing that, but I got knocked down by the mold and it’s a domino effect. I know the domino effect is a whole lot greater, outside in the elements and vulnerable. When people say there’s no way someone could lose their ID or their phone so many times, I know they haven’t been homeless in the city. Of course, there are people who tell stories, but I wonder what those who judge think they would do if it happened to them. When people like you tell your stories, it makes people think. Thank you for being a part of the solution, even though you’re still struggling! That’s huge. Thanks to everyone who’s doing what you do to make this education possible! ❤. Hang in there, Dawn. Never give up! This world needs you. I need you, because I still get judged, without people knowing the story. When you speak truth, others don’t feel isolated. ❤. P.S. Btw, Dawn, I’m not speaking on your man, by just addressing you, here. I found a homeless cat, who has also been through a lot of trauma, so no matter that he bites, when he gets scared…we understand each other. I had to turn the video off, cause he got scared by the car alarm, so I only heard you speak, so far! I’ll watch the rest when he’s sleeping hard and won’t notice! Idky some folks get mad, when I say I took in a homeless cat. It’s not animals vs. people. We’re all in this together. Any gentle soul I meet is welcome. My cat will tell me who that is, or ain’t. They’re good at that!
No. She needs to get clean first and she seems like she enjoys that life. 40 years old and has absolutely nothing. And why would she be with him? What is wrong with these girls he has absolutely nothing to offer
You would be amazed what a difference you could make if judgment was instead replaced with genuine compassion!!! In life(addicted or not) we all just want to be loved and cared for. Knowing you're in it with someone and not alone in life can mean more than any amount of money. My heart goes out to all bc what I see most is pain and heartache and I pray that each and everyone finds the strength and a way to heal. Much love from NC❤
Sad video but listen to those ppl stories is and what they face in the streets id the best lesson for us to avoid this shit , i have an idea if u see it good for a video it's about ppl that they re addicted to gambling . I have a friend that tell me her stories and i can say that is not far at drug addiction
If tranq was being punted in the UK dealers would basically get lynched. The community has little compassion for addicts but still wouldn't put up with that flesh rotting business.

I'm sorry, but bro needs to come up with some better interview skills. SO many just awkward silence moments, questions like "how do u like living on the streets?" Well, nobody "likes" it?! Like bro. U need to get more interested in these people, their lives, etc...make it more interesting instead of asking Qs that have obvious answers 😂. Just some constructive criticism
Well actually some of them do like living on the streets lol however, this is an update so all typical questions were answered in the first video (check my channel) that being said if you want basic ass interview questions you can go to any of the other channels. I make an effort to not do the basic interview style videos that 50 other people are doing any given day of the week. I be hanging with these people for a little while. You try asking un-exploitative questions at 1am in a dangerous hood 5mins after the interviewees shoot up. Don't wanna ask them the same ass questions they answered 30 times already in past interviews "so what turned you to drugs" lol yeah I'm good. Hey either way, if you read this far, thanks for tuning in. Appreciate the quality at least if my lame ass questions don't get you off
I hope if you make any money from this content you do something for these people but think the government has lot to do with this they want people to die an that is sad ,just wish all drugs were free this does work,
I wont be making any real money until millions of views come in regularly. So far my channel has made an entire $253. I do hope to help people more but it will take time before I'm in a position to do the things I have in mind
That's not a love story my friend that's a horror story,there's a syringe lying on the ground I wouldn't be sitting down and I'm an addict a functioning addict I've worked all through my addiction but it's still a hard life my body feels beat up at 45 working with chainsaws all my adult life has left me physically in bad shape and addiction hasn't helped,these people are having clothes hot food and all the clean injecting stuff they can possibly carry and the thing that brings them out of an overdose forgot it's name,I'm sorry but that's just enabling them to survive on the streets longer help them get roofs over their heads where they can live like that behind closed doors imagine how the people that have to live in that street work in that street and have businesses in that street feel or lock them all up build rehabs in the desert and ship them all off out of the city's or it's only going to get worse,parts of America are starting to look worse than 3rd world countries it's embarrassing
If you ever don't want to find out that that that that person is real telling me to go to signal or what's up and then do a live video, I'll tell you what they won't do it. I've only met 1 person in 10 years that was real. That was a real real woman and she did it with me.That doesn't happened it's so rare
Your own friends that you call friends. Did that friends you're associates? But those are the ones that Robbie. When you're sleeping, they're robbed all your stuff. They're still from you. They take all your s*** Those are bad ones those aren't friends. You have no friends when you're homeless. Believe me. Out
When someone says they didn't, they deleted? They deleted all the stuff on their phone. Guess what? They are so stupid. Are you pulled that with a matter of a minute 60 seconds? I gotta pull up your whole history. What you've been doing on all your sites. Everything and 60 seconds and bring back everything it's so easy. What the cows could do with you?They're pretty bad at it.Not as good as me not as good as me but you're pretty good
Yea a lot of places will sign you up for Medicaid (US Healthcare for people living in poverty) But I've heard numerous times that people had "exhausted" the funding and can no longer have the government pay
@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel CMS employee here - Medicare/Medicaid allow up to 90 days of SA/MH detox and rehab per admission. Federally there are currently no guidelines in place for annual exhaustion for these type of treatments. If you were denied services the facility didn't do their job in authorizations or billing. If you were billed the facility you went to was out of network with CMS and at that point it's 100% on you
@ilenetyrrell4484 it's the same in Ireland and the majority of the EU. I was SHOCKED when I immigrated to the states and started working in Healthcare. Disgusting regulations here
I lived with this kind of toxic codependency for almost 10 years. It's very bittersweet.
We shot dope together, chased drugs together, and got high together. We committed crimes together, went to jail together, and got clean together. We struggled to stay clean together, and relapsed together. The love was very real, very raw, and very tangible. Probably even more so than the love between a straight edge couple because of the amount of pain and sorrow we willfully brought on ourselves and endured through together. The same pain that ultimately tore us apart from each other forever.
So, it's definitely true love and real love, but it's certainly not healthy or prosperous love. At all. Nothing good and pure can stay alive in a world of constant, repeated evil and deception. And that's what drugs are-- evil and deception.

Wow. I knew Ryan before he was in his addiction. I always wondered what happened to him because he was a great guy with a great sense of humor. We worked together for a few years. This is very sad to see.
Lovely woman ❤take care and please stop taking drugs.
There r so many levels to helping these people n government officials talk a good game but r the 1st to turn a blind eye. Nobody deserves life like this. I hope they can get the help they so desperately need b4 it’s too late.
This is so sad they seem like such nice people they dont deserve this life at all
That place is FUCKED
Next update the dude won't have a leg.
Jesus ❤s you Dawn & Ryan
You can tell she’s embarrassed of her boyfriend. She knows she can do way better.
They seem to be a nice couple. Ryan is very intelligent. It is such a shame they are stuck in this position. I wish them both well.
You would think someone who has experienced all of those horrible things that it would compel them to leave that lifestyle for good.
This woman… if she could get away from this man she’s dating…he’s tranq rotting ffs. She needs to get away from this environment and these people. She could be okay-she just needs to get out of this world.
I should said that I from New Zealand and on methadone program 56years old doing good,l do feel for this lovely couple god bless
Wow 🙏🏾🙏🏾
7 years clean off of these streets.
Brother Art Good Morning! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
Salutations my fellow jersey homie
I believe her, because I’ve been out on the streets and I know that’s how it goes. I hope you can get indoors, Dawn, with your partner. I needed that to get off problematic substances, too. It wasn’t the best place, I found to stay. It had mold and pests and all that, but it wasn’t the streets. You can’t ask people to function in a healthy way, in the middle of a war zone. They need to help people with more services, after treatment. I hope I can use what time I have left to do that for people who are still out there. I had a job doing that, but I got knocked down by the mold and it’s a domino effect. I know the domino effect is a whole lot greater, outside in the elements and vulnerable. When people say there’s no way someone could lose their ID or their phone so many times, I know they haven’t been homeless in the city. Of course, there are people who tell stories, but I wonder what those who judge think they would do if it happened to them. When people like you tell your stories, it makes people think. Thank you for being a part of the solution, even though you’re still struggling! That’s huge. Thanks to everyone who’s doing what you do to make this education possible! ❤. Hang in there, Dawn. Never give up! This world needs you. I need you, because I still get judged, without people knowing the story. When you speak truth, others don’t feel isolated. ❤.
P.S. Btw, Dawn, I’m not speaking on your man, by just addressing you, here. I found a homeless cat, who has also been through a lot of trauma, so no matter that he bites, when he gets scared…we understand each other. I had to turn the video off, cause he got scared by the car alarm, so I only heard you speak, so far! I’ll watch the rest when he’s sleeping hard and won’t notice! Idky some folks get mad, when I say I took in a homeless cat. It’s not animals vs. people. We’re all in this together. Any gentle soul I meet is welcome. My cat will tell me who that is, or ain’t. They’re good at that!
Zylazine? Or however you spell it....ahhh crazY.
Extremely crazy
No. She needs to get clean first and she seems like she enjoys that life. 40 years old and has absolutely nothing. And why would she be with him? What is wrong with these girls he has absolutely nothing to offer
Why has a man Always to offer (pay)? You don’t know what he offers. Maybe he is very loyal etc. you can’t chose who you love.
Maybe if she was alone she'll have things done to her that no one would want to expirience
She has no intention of ever getting clean.
Addiction makes you feel worthless ..and maybe Ryan's a great guy when he's clean
You would be amazed what a difference you could make if judgment was instead replaced with genuine compassion!!! In life(addicted or not) we all just want to be loved and cared for. Knowing you're in it with someone and not alone in life can mean more than any amount of money. My heart goes out to all bc what I see most is pain and heartache and I pray that each and everyone finds the strength and a way to heal. Much love from NC❤
Where have I seen him before?
Dawn could be a smoke show if she cleans up.
He's fucked up now.
Omg at 40 you already get (u look good for ur age)
😂😂 I haven't cracked 30 yet forgive me for thinking yall are old
Sad video but listen to those ppl stories is and what they face in the streets id the best lesson for us to avoid this shit , i have an idea if u see it good for a video it's about ppl that they re addicted to gambling . I have a friend that tell me her stories and i can say that is not far at drug addiction
Where can they take a shower? I have never seen any places like that. I hope they get out of the streets. 😢
Очень наверное интересно. Но без перевода не имеет смысл.
Ask her ,she want to work ? Work Staten Island spa?
I think I’ve seen an interview with her before. She’s really gone downhill…
If tranq was being punted in the UK dealers would basically get lynched. The community has little compassion for addicts but still wouldn't put up with that flesh rotting business.
Yoi can tellthey both would be great looking people
Should we donate money
I don't have any contact info for them so I wouldn't be able to get them any funds so at this time, no
Oh she has unfortunately got very aged looking. Whereas the boyfriend looks much younger than her. Hes funny af though..
Her poor skin shame and shes pretty
Would love to see what she looks like clean and healthy. Ig explore page maybe

Phones are free.
Brother art, where ya been?
Car was totaled a couple weeks ago so was stuck home for a while waiting for insurance to handle everything.. just got a new car Tuesday so will be back in action very soon
Downfall after prosperity
All I hear are excuses.
Exactly
Human Trafficking is very real . Myths and Facts about women and children sex trafficking . State's rated highest for human trafficking. California Texas Florida New York Michigan Ohio Georgia Illinois Missouri Mississippi, Arizona is main destination and transit point for child sex and hard labor, Tucson is headquarters.
I'm sorry, but bro needs to come up with some better interview skills. SO many just awkward silence moments, questions like "how do u like living on the streets?" Well, nobody "likes" it?! Like bro. U need to get more interested in these people, their lives, etc...make it more interesting instead of asking Qs that have obvious answers 😂. Just some constructive criticism
Well actually some of them do like living on the streets lol however, this is an update so all typical questions were answered in the first video (check my channel) that being said if you want basic ass interview questions you can go to any of the other channels. I make an effort to not do the basic interview style videos that 50 other people are doing any given day of the week. I be hanging with these people for a little while. You try asking un-exploitative questions at 1am in a dangerous hood 5mins after the interviewees shoot up. Don't wanna ask them the same ass questions they answered 30 times already in past interviews "so what turned you to drugs" lol yeah I'm good.
Hey either way, if you read this far, thanks for tuning in. Appreciate the quality at least if my lame ass questions don't get you off
Free Palestine? Oh you lost me there.
FRRE PALESTINE
I hope if you make any money from this content you do something for these people but think the government has lot to do with this they want people to die an that is sad ,just wish all drugs were free this does work,
I wont be making any real money until millions of views come in regularly. So far my channel has made an entire $253.
I do hope to help people more but it will take time before I'm in a position to do the things I have in mind
That's not a love story my friend that's a horror story,there's a syringe lying on the ground I wouldn't be sitting down and I'm an addict a functioning addict I've worked all through my addiction but it's still a hard life my body feels beat up at 45 working with chainsaws all my adult life has left me physically in bad shape and addiction hasn't helped,these people are having clothes hot food and all the clean injecting stuff they can possibly carry and the thing that brings them out of an overdose forgot it's name,I'm sorry but that's just enabling them to survive on the streets longer help them get roofs over their heads where they can live like that behind closed doors imagine how the people that have to live in that street work in that street and have businesses in that street feel or lock them all up build rehabs in the desert and ship them all off out of the city's or it's only going to get worse,parts of America are starting to look worse than 3rd world countries it's embarrassing
Very sad. I'm an addict in recovery. It's tough
If you ever don't want to find out that that that that person is real telling me to go to signal or what's up and then do a live video, I'll tell you what they won't do it. I've only met 1 person in 10 years that was real. That was a real real woman and she did it with me.That doesn't happened it's so rare
Your own friends that you call friends. Did that friends you're associates? But those are the ones that Robbie. When you're sleeping, they're robbed all your stuff. They're still from you. They take all your s*** Those are bad ones those aren't friends. You have no friends when you're homeless. Believe me.
Out
When someone says they didn't, they deleted? They deleted all the stuff on their phone. Guess what? They are so stupid. Are you pulled that with a matter of a minute 60 seconds? I gotta pull up your whole history. What you've been doing on all your sites. Everything and 60 seconds and bring back everything it's so easy. What the cows could do with you?They're pretty bad at it.Not as good as me not as good as me but you're pretty good

Is that serious, owing/paying for detox? How do some people say they are constantly getting into detox?
Sydney 🦘
Yea a lot of places will sign you up for Medicaid (US Healthcare for people living in poverty)
But I've heard numerous times that people had "exhausted" the funding and can no longer have the government pay
@@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel that is ridiculous, I can choose to detox as often as I want to.
@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel CMS employee here - Medicare/Medicaid allow up to 90 days of SA/MH detox and rehab per admission. Federally there are currently no guidelines in place for annual exhaustion for these type of treatments. If you were denied services the facility didn't do their job in authorizations or billing. If you were billed the facility you went to was out of network with CMS and at that point it's 100% on you
My comments to you under my comment are Always deleted or I don’t see them any more. I am sorry. Wish you all the best
@ilenetyrrell4484 it's the same in Ireland and the majority of the EU. I was SHOCKED when I immigrated to the states and started working in Healthcare. Disgusting regulations here
