I am so proud of Brandon for getting help and being sober I have a cousin who is addictted to every drug u can think of my family when it got 2 the point where she was violent they called cops and kicked her out I dont think ppl understand what its like to love an addict the pain thats involved ur watching someone kill themselves everyday thats why it bothers me when they scrutinize amy winehouses family like they should of done more come on common sense ppl if u dont what its like dont judge
i dont know exactly why people think weed is so bad, like i understand its a drug and all but look at this, ciggarettes are 13 times more addictive than pot people dont understand that...alcohol is worse for you than weed also. did you know weed kills lung cancer cells.. its a natural herb unlike acid or crack..the native indians used it Bob marley smoked at least 3 times a day i dont see him being mentally unstable in fact he is one of the most pure beings on earth
iv done plenty of drugs , oxy, morphine , alcohol, but never allowed myself to the point of addiction. PPl need to stop being so damn weak minded an take control of there lives.
I like seeing people like Brandon on shows like these coming back after they conquered their problems to help others do the same thing it is a very good thing of him to do.
People don't seem to understand how addicting opiates like oxycontin and other pain meds are. I am 26 and sinc I tasted my first vicodin back in 11th grade, I never felt the same. I have been to a few rehabs and am doing ok now. But, the real problem is working on yourself and trying to work on the issues that led you to getting high in the 1st place. Addiction, especially opiate addiction, is physical, mental, and spiritual. I hope to recver one day. I wsh everyone who struggles good luck!
@InSanaaT because black people aren't fucked up like that, and if they are they don't publicize it on television. they get the same help but with the support of their family because we are strong people. plus they take their ass to church
I have a hard time believing the so called "addicts" on this show are real...The two girls on today's show showed no withdrawl symptoms before they shot up and showed no change in behavior after..This is total staged acting..What real drug addict is going to expose themselves on national television and compromise their habit?..Remember Dr Phil might be somewhat helpful but it's still show business.
Congratulations to Brandon for all your successes!!!! You should be so proud of yourself - the depths of addiction are so difficult to come out of - let alone explain. The fact that you are able to come out of that and help other people is absolutely inspiring!!! Keep up the good work!!!
That's an amazing story. I remember watching Brandon on Dr. Phil years ago and I've thought about him from time to time, wondering how he was doing. I so admire him for staying sober for so long and he's doing great things now with his sobriety.
the problem is what young people consider partying. I remember highschool they thought I was uptight. I went out salsa dancing for fun not get high and become a zombie. The ironic thing is I think they want to get high because they are not social and would not want to risk doing something like dancing or singing and risk being uncool.
@FernandoTorrera true, also some kids just get stoned because they like the way it made them feel, like me for example, i was completely dedicated to outdoor activites a minimum of 8 hours a day, expressing my self artistically, skateboarding literally from noon till dark, stoned all day. it just helped me calm down. true i am not social but its not because i give a fuck whats cool or not, i just wanted to get high and ride my skateboard :)
WOW I remember that guy! HE sounds and LOOKS amazing Dr. Phil! I am so glad ya stuck with that family! When he threw that tantrum on that 1st show. I seriously thought he wasn't going to try to save his life! He was going to throw it away! Now look at him! What an amazing story! A family intervention! That is awesome!
Oh my gosh! Soooooo proud of him!
