I’ve known Nicole since the 3rd grade. She has always been an amazing person and friend. Unfortunately, I had to watch her go through this mess. I was sure she was going to die which she actually did a couple times! So glad she was able to pull herself out of it and is now back with us. Hell of a story and I’m happy to have been at least a part of it.

Good on you Nicole!! I love hearing success stories. I started getting hifh when i was 14 and i didnt quit for the next 10 years. I am six years clean now and I cant think of anyone who loves life more than me. Stay strong everybody. God loves you and if you genuinely ask for help God will not leave you hanging. I love this podcast ☺️

I survived something so eerily similar Nicole. I absolutely understand what you are saying. Been through hell and back. DV is no joke. Thank you for sharing this. It really is so hard to break away. I get asked all the time why i didn't leave sooner. I always respond, Where was i supposed to go? But i went to a shelter... then eventually got clean and remarried to my soulmate and best friend.

But so far...it's so weird what trick addiction is playing on a humans mind... like the live to suffer and repeating the same mistake over and over again. Viscous circle. Sometimes people might need the forced time out to get out of it. Rock bottom moment maybe.

You have no idea how ridiculously close of a story this is to me and my wife like she had to stay with me because she couldn’t shoot up. I knew all the chemistry behind it, and to be honest with you, we’ve produced money and drugs together and we were so strung out back in the day it was 😢 sad really and we finally got clean after 2 stints in prison

I love this channel. Very professional and informative.

Thank you for sharing some hard things.

This is the best interview I have seen! Excellent questions, superb answers. If we ask for God’s help, He is with us!!!

It was very important that you covered how her actions affected her children by both drugs and DV . This type of neglect and honestly abuse inevitably will affect them the rest of their lives. With that said, she’s a strong woman who has a very good personal story of perseverance and moving forward no matter. I thank her for sharing her story.

Thank you for sharing your story.. Truly much Hope in this... You are truly a Beautiful Person!!!

Hi Ian, I am new to your channel. I think it’s amazing that people come out of prison and start your life over and a positive way God bless.

Awesome interview!!!

You don't understand how much he loves me, he needs to do this... I know someone who's gone through this mindset for years. That comment helped me understand certain things... being abused once is wrong, if they can do it once 🚩, don't hang around for more.

She talks about what the human body goes through coming off that stuff but she's ALSO testimony to the resilience of the human, sitting there telling her story of such awfulness, such torture, and looking so gracious and ladylike with her nice hair and make up and tasteful clothes. I know people love JD Delay, and I do too, but I also like somebody who can come back out of these awful situations and be as polite and genteel and put back together as before, even if wiser and more understanding. I love how she looks like a suburban middle class lady gives a Real Housewives vibe, like she's lady-like plus. Not being clear.

I’m sure you’ve heard this many times but 12 step programs work. I cleaned up 38 years ago in AA. People in the program are a pain in the neck but after time you will be free of your addiction and then make deep friendships. Eventually you will find that there is so much reward in helping others which is the opposite of what your addiction allows you. All the holding hands and shouting hi is crap and did not exist when I started but you have to get over it. I think God made a bargain with me at the start. « If you can put up with these people I will let you stay sober. « Good luck and get a service job as soon as you start.

Methadone was worse than suboxone. Methadone was like herion to me if not worse. Methadone withdrawals about killed me. I know it helps some, but most get 10 times more addicted to Methadone then herion. Its was so hard to get of Methadone. The clinic here would allow you to be one the dose you feel comfortable on. I went to 120mg a day. I saw other at closer to 500mg spilt doses. They were taking 250 mg split doses twice a day. So 500mg all together. Yes it does save some but its just as addictive. Scary.

Suboxone worked the best, it dont have opiates in it like methadone. Suboxone has opiate blocker in it. Methadone is still an opiate. Methadone is pretty much synthetic herion.

@@joshuadill7849 ..... Suboxone absolutely has an opioid in it. It's called Buprenorphrine. That is a synthetic opioid. Now, I developed a massive opiate addiction that resulted from being hurt overseas while in the Marines. The doctors at the Veterans hospital had me doped to the gills for years. At one point I was getting morphine 100 mg pills 3 times a day, Dilaudid 8 mg 4 times a day, and got 180 roxicodone 30 mg pills for up to 6 times a day for breakthrough pain. One day I got a new do tor who told me I was on 2 much and she took everything away and put me in Vicodin 7.5 mg and only gave me 90 a month or 3 a day. I went into instant, severe withdrawal from now having such a small dosage from what I was on so I started buying pills off the street. That soon turned into heroin which was cheaper then buying pills. Finally I was speedballing and injecting heroin and cocaine at the same time just to kill my pain. I went to rehab and they put me on methadone. That worked awhile but when I went to get clean and the withdrawal was worse then anything else including heroin. I started using again and after another 2 years did rehab again. This time I did Suboxone. Suboxone was a Godsend. I was on Suboxone for almost 3 years and then quit it cold turkey. I never had withdrawal symptoms and it was the easiest thing in my life. April 27th, 2024 will mark 8 years clean for me. Suboxone saved my life. And I used it as directed and never once had a problem and quit it with no side effects. My doctor gave me a small supply after I told him I was quitting in case I had any symptoms. He gave me 8 of the strips and told me to call him if I needed more or if I had withdrawal. I brought all 8 of those back to his office and put them on his desk to give them back to him.

I also got on methadone through a clinic in 2006! I got off of it in 2012, worse for me then any illegal drug I’d done.

Incredible inner strength & endurance!

to allow the prescription of opiates so freely in society is the true crime

What an amazing woman. Yes, you're technically a victim but you're also a culprit. Very admirable to be honest about her role in it all.

Shout-out to Ms. Nicole, still having the spark in her eyes, and still looking nice! Also, well done to her parents, and to the dentist, they all did terrific job! Women with southern accent just hit different!😉

She is amazing 😍

Shreveport checking in hell yeah. Awesome story

I appreciate her willingness to accept 100% responsibility and accountability. however..those things are still attainable while accepting and understanding it probably didn’t start with her. Generational dysfunction is the real deal and early childhood puts us on a healthy or unhealthy path. The attachment style we learn as young children travel with us forever until we seek help to stop that cycle.

Close to 100% of the people I hear about in prison got there through the use of drugs or alcohol. .

Me too! First, being co dependent in an abusive environment and then on to becoming a victim of the Opioid Crisis! Pain Management became the local Dr. Feelgood. I take my full responsibility for what happened but those doctors have a part of that responsibility.

Something tells me that she didn’t exactly stay sober during her pregnancy 🤰

I hate this trait about myself so im sorry in advance. These storys are so sad, i witnessed my oldest sister go the domestic abuse with the father to her kids and it was awful and now watching her have to go threw life explaining to her kids how there dad was. He abused my twin sister as well and thats when things actually changed. Once he hurt my twin sister, my oldest sister got away finally. The man still harassed her for years. Then he took her kids and claimed to the court that my sister was the abusive one. The court knew he had been covicted of domestic violance multiply times and the court still gave him temporary custody for a month or more. Then one day we were all in court to support my sister and fight for her kids. Then, out of nowhere, he just said that he made it all up and my sister has never been abusive to her kids to the lawyer, so he made her go threw hell for another month of more just cause the greedy bastard thought he was going to get child support and food cards and all kinds of help. When he found out he wasnt getting nothing to be there as a dad, he flipped the script reel quick and bounced.
