[CraZyFranK666]

Amen.

I'm sorry to hear if anyone is struggling with drug addictions of any type. If you want help, and can't find help, or if the help you seek isn't helping you. Try what I have done. Accepted Jesus as Lord in your life. ask him to help you with your addiction, and make a vow to him that you will live for him. If you sincerely desire to stop your addiction then God will deliver you from that stronghold in your life.

Prepare for your life to be changed. Bless you. HE HAS DELIVERED ME : )

[CraZyFranK666]

@TheIggy457 NO...Sorry to burst your bubble in fantasyland , but you delivered yourself ! If you need to make a vow to someone or something other than yourself then your probably too late ,have killed too many braincells and wind up back on the bottle, horse or whatever you fell off....and it is not going to be enough until you do it for yourself and realize you are your own god you speak of,your own savior not some adult santa clause or poor guy nailed to a couple of 2 x 4's ...YOU !

[SovHealth]

It's important to raise awareness of withdrawal effects, thanks for posting.

[vitzippa]

Whats been sayin about alcoholic, that's more a point of view, probably the worst extreme one to, there's probably more than four times as more alcoholics that doesn't do that, and still is addicted. I understand the video considering alcoholic, but you are imo putting the worst view on it, prop comparing it do drugs wich imo totally wrong. peace.

[megankittty]

i'm an addict.

it isn't easy at all.

[serokserokserokserok]

@megankittty Wow you got a weak brain, just buy a gymcard and weed...

[megankittty]

@serokserokserokserok are you mental?

[serokserokserokserok]

@megankittty no, i just hate when people accusing drugs taking a hold of them, its your own fault you use any drug. Just DONT use the drug you are addicted to, its not harder...

[megankittty]

@serokserokserokserok true true. they should just quit complaining and go to rehab.

[Megapineapple100]

@megankittty you think you know what your talking about but you have no idea.

[megankittty]

@Megapineapple100 lol i've been going to rehab with a bunch of addicts for a very long time; i think i know. they just need to get their shit together and it gets easier.

[GabberUpUrAss]

@megankittty Well, not all addicts are the same and there´s a shitload of difference between the substances and type of abuse, but I guess you already knew that.

[broadcastmyass4u]

an alcoholic doesn't wake up in the morning and go to a bar to, "get their fix" as you put it. They have that on deck already

[AngeliaClaire]

@broadcastmyass4u

lol But VERY TRUE!  :)

[Ouija88]

@broadcastmyass4u almost tru, im an addict, but i only drink in the evening, in the day im sober, but when it's gone to evening i get the urge to drink alcohol. but sometimes i stay a month without alcohol but when some bitchin on me again i gonna drink again. But i don't have a storage for so on, i just buy the day i need it, nothing more.

[ChrisW12208]

@broadcastmyass4u I know someone who would go around to all the beer bottles the next day and pour all the swill together and pull out the cigarette butts and drink up. NASTY haha

[PinkGrapes10]

I remember my daddy coming home from rehab every couple of years or so, and he shook and sweat like crazy. It scared me. I was only little; no child should have to see their parent go through something as painful as withdrawal symptoms.

[M1thotyn]

Uhh, that's not what withdrawals are. You're saying that withdrawals are merely the time between consuming the substance someone is addicted to. No, withdrawals are a physiological response that effect every organ in the body. Alcohol withdrawals for example: Heart rate spikes, blood pressure spikes, stroke and seizure activity emerges, shakes develop, hallucinations can occur. It's not just merely the time between usage. No wonder this video has a low rating.

oh god dide they really turn this into another religiuous banter?

[ZELIG500]

This guy's comments would be better taken if the doofus who produced it knew how to spell withdrawal.

[princessprojector]

He does sound Kevin Bacon.

[1989JCH]

This guy sounds like Kevin Bacon! ;)

[YesYesYouAreRight]

your sound is bad

[crackfiendables]

worst drug to quit is weed... i beat everything else except that

[ZELIG500]

I wish you'd come into the high schools, detoxes and rehabs I work in ... then keep spreading that message. Most of the YOUTUBE generation doesn't believe in marijuana addiction. I see it over and over again. Marijuana addiction doesn't mean someone is going to steal or rob to score -- although it does happen. What usually happens is that the person obsesses about not having any, gets irritable and depressed ... and goes through all the low self esteem issues ... and that can be dangerous too.

[brian2833]

I sure could go for a brewski!

[Showjumper18]

dduuddde i cant even here u

[ricanroz116]

i come from a family of alcoholics and i do drink every night and i know that i am an alcoholic. i used to drink really hard stuff and now i cut back to white wine. am going thru some things in my life, and i feel that when i drink, all the pain and hurt just subsides. i know i need to stop and i have at times. praying to god that the day that i finally stop comes soon.

[Ba55lineuk]

man i gave up (suddenly) which is the worst way of doing it i genuinely thought i was gna die i was fucked up for 5-6 days it mentally fucks you up! slowly cut down man instead of suddenly stopping. i feel amazing now and happy you will have to overcome the anxiety and mental shit which last a few days which is fucking hell but after its all gone you will feel amazing literally a healthy new person with lots of energy seriously its the best thing ive ever done. i hope you quit mate good luck!

[rosa79106]

you are true,withdraws are hard hard to deal with but jesus can take that away.god bless

[bassochadic]

The strength to succeed comes from within, no matter who you are. We all have the power to change our own lives. Jesus, god and religion is nothing but a false crutch the weak minded lean on when they're too weak and pathetic to believe in themselves

[ZELIG500]

Atheism is a crutch. Perhaps YOU'RE too weak and pathetic to have any faith in something beyond your own egocentric ability to see it. God doesn't believe in atheists. Anti-religious people are as bad as fundamentalists in their fashionable left wing absolutism.

[ZELIG500]

So you're an athiest. You believe that there was nothing and nothing happened to nothing and then nothing magically exploded for no reason, creating everything and then a bunch of everything magically rearranged itself for no reason whatsover into self-replicating bits which then turned into dinosaurs. Makes perfect sense.

[hilzor]

Nice demonstration of your ignorance of abiogenesis. There doesn't have to be a reason for natural phenomena to occur. Does lightning or sunshine have to have a "reason", or like most things in life, does it simply happen?

Then again, you believe that a bored sky wizard created a dirt-man and a rib-woman, who were conned into eating a magical fruit by a talking snake, and the damnable sin was that they sought knowledge (because as you've proven, god loves ignorance).

[ZELIG500]

You couldn't be more wrong about what I believe. I don't have all the answers (that must be nice) .. but I have a strong feeling that God doesn't live in the church, the synagogue, the mosque or the temple ... not even the Bible. Those are human creations, but people with that faith don't threaten me. It just t has nothing to do with my faith. I can however spot someone who is restless, irritable and discontent. They numb it by taking other people's inventories.

[ZELIG500]

Furthemore, it seems that as eminent a scientist as Luis Pasteur demostrated that life does not currently spontaneously arise in complex form from nonlife in nature. Abiogenesis is just a theory and not a very popular one outside rabidly ahtiestic circles. Have you considered prayer? You may not find god, but you almost surely will find more serenity, more tolerance, less fear, and less anger. You may acquire a QUIET courage.

[hilzor]

You should be aware that Pasteur's ideas surrounding spontaneous generation aren't an "absolute" in the same way that Koch's postulates aren't an absolute (because Koch, for example, could not have foreseen viruses, and his postulate doesn't apply to the bacteria that causes syphilis, as an example). It should also be noted that the current biological definition of life is different from the original definition, and will change again.

[hilzor]

To say that abiogenesis isn't popular is about as off as one can get. It is currently THE most favored view on the origin of life amongst biologists, biochemists, et al. Please quite spouting disinformation.

[ZELIG500]

How about you stick to what you know and leave recovery from alcohol and drug abuse to those of us in the field. I have reached many a hopeless addict without ever mentioning abiogenesis. When it works, it's usually through a blend of self care, group therapy and spirituality.

[hilzor]

I'm not commenting on your supposed expertise in recovery care/rehabilitation, I'm commenting on your overwhelming ignorance towards the sciences.

[DazedExistence]

No ZELIG, an athiest doesn't believe in magic, a religious person does. We require evidence, you require faith. We can prove things through reasoning, you claim things through wishful thinking. And PLEASE do yourself a favor and read a book on evolution, you created a straw man argument b/c you obviously don't understand it.

[ZELIG500]

I'm not like you. I don't know everything. I do know however that the greatest scientific geniuses in history were devout Christians—and scientists from Newton to Einstein insisted that biblical religion provided the key ideas from which experimental science could develop. The Crusades, the Inquisition, the Galileo affair, and witch hunts together make up less than 1% of the murders that have occurred during modern atheist regimes like Stalin, Hitler, and Mao.

[DazedExistence]

I never claimed to know everything, in fact, that's the whole point...I don't. That's why I require evidence and make judgements based on facts. And Einstein wasn't a Christian btw, he was a deist. There is a big difference. Furthermore, Hitler professed to be Catholic and even if he lied, his troops who commited the murders themselves were absolutely religious. Stalin was an athiest, but he founded a political system that was religious in nature. Political ideas are often religion in disguise.

[ZELIG500]

Circular reasoning is legitimate due to circular reasoning being legitimate. That's what I hear.

Anti-religious people are as bad as fundamentalists in their fashionable left wing absolutism.

There is so much intellectual laziness behind what passes for religion bashing today. People who like to attack religion think they're being risqué. Most of their arguments are just conformist and insipid.

[DazedExistence]

Circular reasoning, glad you mentioned that: The Bible is correct because it is the word of God. It is the word of God because the Bible says so. Therefore, the Bible is the word of God. That is the definition of intellectual laziness. How can arguments be conformist if most Americans believe in God? If it's conformist, it can't be risqué. If it's risqué, it can't be conformist. Make up your mind. Furthermore, no athiest believes you will burn in a lake of fire, but you do, and that's sadistic

[ZELIG500]

Your zeal has made you blind to reasoned debate. I'm not talking about the Bible. One of my past posts clearly states that I don't believe God lives in any house of worship or the Bible. Do your homework. A simple review would reveal that all I've ever claimed is that faith dares the soul to go beyond what the eyes can see. Lake of fire? Are you on drugs?

[DazedExistence]

Am I on drugs? That would figure to be your argument, your an addiction counselor, anyone who disagrees with you must be on drugs, right? No, addiction is a biological/social issue, not a religious issue. And if you did your homework, you'd realize that you haven't responded to a single argument, you pull ad hominem claims against me. Note how you attack me, but don't respond only to the arguments themselves. And "lake of fire" was theoretical, it still represents what you have shown to believe.

[ZELIG500]

Your user ID says more than I ever could. Is that hominenen enough for you? And you're a bore. You're like a dog that barks at a car. Car's gone, dog's still barking. At what? Don't know. Don't care. As for God, there are some drawn to that mystery, I say let them be. Its your aggressive aggrandizement of atheism that scares many religious people away from working toward a world were all beliefs, religious and philosophical, can exist together harmoniously.

[DazedExistence]

For one, attacking my ID is proof enough that you can't understand the idea that it is based on the concept of living in an absurd world without drugs. The fact is your ideas are not only wrong based only on evidence, but wrong on ethical grounds too. If you are going to fight, do it with facts and evidence, not with attacks against me. Stick with the argument, and I will too. I think you are intelligent and know better than to attack me as a person, so prove it, or prove me wrong.

[ZELIG500]

I'm bored. I work for a living. Two jobs. Maybe I'll pick this up again later.

[mathias7777777777777]

Hi Dazed, you say atheists require evidence. I have a challenge for you. Do you believe that your position is more likely to be nearer to or closer to the truth than theism? If you don't, why then are you an atheist? If you do, then what evidence do you have to support your position that atheism is truer than or at least more likely to be nearer to the truth than theism? A simple question.

[champagne30]

i'm an entertainer, and I never crave a drink throughout the day, but I feel i need a couple before going on that stage...is that a sign of an alcoholic?

[tatorsal]

No, but you are a stripper, right?

[champagne30]

no...female impersonator at a night club

[danthemango]

heroin withdrawal is within 6 hours of a fix, but can be shorter if it's taken more than twice a day.

[1ojak1]

"what we need to look out for" (judgemental bigots for sure)

[k90728]

Dude hes saying it with experience man... you sometimes need to look at someone to really know whats going on with them, drug addictions i mean... you know a addict when they are in there withdrawal phase mostly in less then 10 minutes. and im saying this with 'experience'

[sicpooch]

You didn't really comment on the film either. All you said was "You really didn't say a comment towards the film either. All you said was "notice all the views but no comments?". It doesn't say what to comment on anywhere.
