  • “If you’ve never been a mess, you have no message” is such a great quote. Only people who’ve lived through hard times can understand.

    “I became a slave to Fentanyl. And when my master called…. I answered. I didn’t care at what cost”. Such true words about addiction. ANY addiction. Thanks Mark for a Great interview.

    This is really an eye opener and motivation to me, because I was on perc 30s for about 5-6 mouths and I’m only 17 I was down bad when I didn’t have them and me thinking I’m not on it long enough so I won’t get addicted but it takes one pill to destroy your life, im currently on going withdrawal right now (day 5) and I can’t sleep or eat and use the restroom HELLA but I felt good getting up today I hope to anybody who see this comment…….MAN MAN MAN, your not alone in this get some motivation and support and let time go by and I swear u will get through this ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    He's a great dude. He was my counselor when I was out in California, he's one of the better ones for sure.

    Hey Mark if you could do more interviews. With people in recovery it would be great! It will give you fan base that's struggling hope. A lot of people are "functional addicts" and this would help a lot.
  • @Jaleningle
    The best interviews are the ones were Mark doesn't have to say a word. Thank you for sharing Pretty. This was worded beautifully.
  • @LEEKTHEMESSIAH
    This is literally my struggle story with fentanyl. I'm clean now and healthy. Glad to see this man made it through
  • Good to see a recovery story. There is a huge difference between how someone talks about themselves while in active addiction and in recovery.
  • @dwade6322
    This man is a refreshing breath of air. Congrats to his recovery,he looks healthy. 🤟
  • Thank you for sharing your story. My daughter is addicted to Fentanyl. Your story has helped me try to understand what she feels, thinks, etc. Your and yours are in my thoughts & prayers.

    When my mom passed, she had 540 percocet stashed that i found. Needless to say, i became an addict. 5 years 5 months clean.

    Crazy I’m from the Cape Verdean community in Brockton Massachusetts and he’s not lying. He was definitely that dude, we was younger but his name def rang around the city . Known for always being fly, having the baddies and throwing dope events. I went to his bday party he had a Kretcheu back in 07!. Shit was lit. I moved to cali a few years ago and I swear I seen dude in Melrose. Good to see he recovered.

    My ex partner of almost 16 yrs was found dead of Fentanyl OD. 4 days ago. Rip Henrietta so hard to put that. She had spent 5 months in detention and was transferred to a rehab facility. She was doing well and had been clean since February of this year until a girl smuggled some pills in. She became tempted and lost her program due to using in the place. She was facing 9 yrs in prison for assault on a health care worker at Suboxone program when she first started trying for help. She was scared of getting a number her biggest fear she spoke on. Former gang member and drug user since age 11 it's all she knew. She bought 2 pills and proceeded to get high as she could after all that clean time she smoked too much and she was found soon after. I have 8 yrs clean right when the game changed from oxys and heroin to fentanyl. My life was worth nothing and today I custody of my 5 grandchildren and I help bring people to their journey out of addiction. It starts by being able to admit you can't do another day of it. I was lost 17 yrs and you can come home.... I promise it's worth it.

    Love seeing others find recovery! I’m Clean almost 3 years & 9 months now & I relate to so much of his story, especially the pain & misery of active addiction. Thanks to recovery I have a life beyond my wildest dreams today. I appreciate you making the content you do! Perhaps it will lead to more compassion toward those struggling & allow others to see they are people too… and everyone deserves a chance to be happy ❤
  • I am Cape Verdean myself I’m so proud of you👏🏾👊🏽Keep your sobriety 🙌❤️❤️💋🇨🇻🙏🏽
  • My ex’s bother is an addict and homeless and I always thought the family was terrible for not helping him but this guy was able to explain how his family tried but ultimately an addict won’t recover until they want to do it for themselves
  • Dang, as a fellow addict, this is probably one of the best, if not the best recovery story I have ever heard. I like how he spoke about his drug use, but didnt glamorize it. It's awesome to see that fellow addicts can recover and end up happy and succesful. Pretty is definitely an inspiration and I know I'll keep his story with me always as a reminder to push your ego out of the way during recovery, have hope, work hard and take it day by day. Thank you so much Pretty and Mark for the video. One of my favs for sure. ❤
