    thank you

  • mgmanmike:

    He really makes me feel like an outsider, (to fellow recovering addicts).
    He was so quick to judge me,(something he says he NEVER does, in all his
    videos). And. I am from south Florida where their is no real option for
    support. I cannot go to AA/NA because of my religion. I have never been so
    disappointed and depressed before. I am only looking for support and
    guidance.

    I am a recovering opiate addict who was addicted for more than ten years I
    have been clean since March 28, 2009. I have been seeking a support group,
    without success. I joined a social networking site, started by someone who
    posts on youtube at his invitation. I was in the middle of trying to help
    someone and got banned from the site for no reason. It was only my second
    day on the site. I asked him in an email why he had banned me. He never
    responded. I am so disappointed and depressed.

    To WallyJohnDJ: You need to make a research on line when you need to go to
    the group meetings in your area. You need a drug addiction program! The
    best one is in the group of people as yourself.
