I was a heroin addict for almost 20yrs. This WAS my life . I have now been clean since 2012 wih the help of Suboxone. I run a coffee house , have a bank account, home, bought my first new car in MY name 2yrs ago. Have a beautiful 5yr old grandson and life is amazing

Her mum seems like a trained psychologist she is so emotionally intelligent. She would be a great counsellor or psychologist. What an amazing woman.

Her mom is the most understanding parent I've ever seen! I was an addict for 20 years and I was a heroin addict for 15 of those 20 years. Now I've been clean for years and I work at a drug and alcohol abuse treatment center helping addicts. I'm married with a beautiful home. Recovery is possible. I thank God everyday for blessing with this life.

I follow her on Instagram and she's been clean for years now ♥️

Don't blame cannabis.. blame the black market and laws.

What a beautiful, intelligent, empathetic understanding, yet REALISTIC mother. An Angel. If only we all had such loving support.

This mother is such a sweet lady, and understanding. It’s rare that someone who’s never been on drugs in there life understands why Ricky robbed there home

The mother is addicted to the memory of a daughter she no longer has. I feel for her, but her actions might be making things worse.

Where are Hannah and Ricky now??? 🙏🏽

Heroin is a great escape but a great escape to nowhere.

Her mother is a saint. She realizes what’s she’s up against and has no unrealistic thoughts. It touched me how the mother still wanted a relationship with her daughter. No screaming ,yelling and saying hurtful things. I admire that she has accepted it and chooses to keep her time with her daughter sacred.

The mother is so educated about heroin use . She should be so proud and I truly hope Hannah and her boyfriend get better

My heart goes out to the mom. It’s such a fine line between being supportive and being an enabler…

I was a heroin addict for 15 years then my poor mother passed away,it was such a shock for me thats when I went to rehab and got clean. 😥

Kate is the definition of unconditional love. I hope so much it has paid off. 🤞

You can never help someone that doesn’t want help. I fed my addiction for 5 years and no matter how my loved ones tried to cure me it never happened. Until one day I decided to get clean. 6 years clean now. We all have the strength to overcome anything.

kate is a loving mother..ive put my mother through the same thing...seeing this after being off the needle since 2018,makes me appreciate my loving mother even more..MOMS are the BEST

Her mom is amazing, but also completely codependent and a huge enabler. You cannot love someone into recovery.

Death is easier than overcoming an addiction. The withdrawals hurt so bad it makes you wish you were dead. I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone in life. Shout out to anyone who has overcome an addiction. We are recovering everyday. I'm glad she has her mother, she is the definition of a mother, never give up on your child. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

As a recovering addict, I can tell you that the mother is not helping. I hope the end of the episode she learns from this because enabling is going to just feed her addiction. It was not until my mother died, my father took me in and gave me weekly urines. But before that I was on the streets and begged and begged to stay anywhere, no luck. I did not want to get clean. Until I lost EVERYTHING, including my sanity, I couldn't get clean. I moved in with my father who is in recovery, and at first it helped. Until he started stealing my Suboxone. I then relapsed because my father enabled me. I moved out and started using again. It was not until I was ready to kill myself that I dragged myself to get help. By myself. No one to help me. Tough love is the only way. I'm speaking from experience.
