I didn't want to live anymore because of my addiction
What's heroin addiction feel like?:
Eric became addicted to opioids as a teenager when his mother was fighting cancer. He started taking her pills to ease his worry and depression over her illness. While in college, Eric's mother died. He no longer had access to her pills so he turned to heroin. Eric says his addiction eventually became so bad, he attempted to take his own life. He explains the desperation and hopelessness that came with his addiction and his gratitude for surviving so he could get clean.

Had the pleasure of working with this guy. He's not only strong fighting this, but also a great person of strong character.
This guy gave an amazing testimony without a bunch of war stories.
This guy is chill. Good video quality.

angel parsley i am so sorry you had to go through that.
I wonder how guilty the family felt after knowing it was a suicide attempt and they chose not to be there.
That was very powerful, thank you.
God has you 🙏🏼 your so good looking and you have the world in your hands congratulations and god bless ♥️
Thank you
Great interview. It’s good to hear everyone’s voice/story when it comes to fighting opiate addiction. Kratom helped my friends get off opiates.

I used kratom to substitute opiates such as pain killers. Now 4 years later fully addicted to kratom. Checking into rehab for the first time next month at 20 years old, hopefully I can get through this bump in the road and learn to live the rest of my life sober.
