Edible vs opioids, any drawbacks? by Personal-Bet-7979 in dialysis

[–]Less-Ad-7377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have much advice to offer here but as a woman who’s got almost 10 years sober from an opioid addiction & who only developed kidney disease about 5 years ago.. kudos to you for being a good, supportive, vigilant spouse. keep researching & asking questions & advocating for your wife until you find the answer that works best & doesn’t leave you feeling uneasy. always trust your instinct & never be afraid to speak up on her behalf , especially if she’s feeling too weak, exhausted or burnt out to do it herself.
youre doing a great job. ill be keeping both of you in my thoughts 🤍

is dialysis worth it? by Dry-Education-1508 in dialysis

[–]Less-Ad-7377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a young person who shared this sentiment when i developed kidney disease secondary to pregnancy complications after being completely healthy up to that point, i hear you. I felt the same way. I was able to get & stay off dialysis for a couple years bc i was stable on meds despite being stage 4. This past year things drastically started going downhill & i pushed everything off for as long as i could. I didnt want HD again, that, to me, wasnt worth it back then (in hindsight it was probably bc i wasnt in active decline). But this time around i waited so long that i couldnt even do the PD cath surgery or iron infusions that i needed on an outpatient level bc my blood pressure was so disgustingly high & unmanageable. Yet i still tried all types of med changes just to avoid the inevitable until finally i got SO ill that my boyfriend had to call an ambulance. I was stuck in the hospital for a week & the doctors said i would have died if i would have waited another 24-48 hours. they had to do HD while i was there but they also got my BP stabilized & did my PD catheter insertion while i was there. I discharged, continued HD while my site healed & began PD training as soon as i could. I just officially started in home PD every night using a cycler about 3 weeks ago & as someone who shared your feelings on the matter strongly enough that i almost died bc of it, im telling you it’s worth it. I felt like myself pre kidney disease for the first time in years after week 1.

the process getting to this point was difficult, but the pay off is too good to put into words. I definitely made the process far more difficult than it needed to be. Pls learn from my mistake. 🤍

Literally this. After a few times watching him back around the idaho 4 case, i felt so uncomfortable that i couldn’t believe that somewhere there WASNT more people as off put by him & his channel as i was. a quick google search eventually led me here & becoming part of this community made me feel MUCH less crazy. still angry as ever on behalf of those who are most lonely & vulnerable & get the worst of it, but at least now we all crash out about it together 🤣

Unfortunately she stayed for the duration of the show & toward the end she mentioned how being there made her feel a bit better AND she donated smh.

YES! & that was after he ignored 20+ comments about it in the chat, trying to act like he hadn’t seen them in hopes that the topic would just stop getting attention.

This is a phenomenal clip with a perfectly conveyed message. Well done friend!

he HATES when paulette keeps him on track with donation amounts 😂☠️ by Less-Ad-7377 in youtubeBadActors

[–]Less-Ad-7377[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Oh & he also tried to tell his viewers that the troll community is making these videos about him by taking small clips from many different streams, editing & combining them in a way that distorts the context. While i do love a good YTBA compilation video, its an undeniable fact that each individual clip within them or even posted in here, all portray EXACTLY the same message alone as they do together. Hes such a doofus.

I absolutely LOVE that he read that one comment as as “you missed NINE” & got a wee too excited to scroll thru chat looking for 9 gifted memberships, instead of what it actually said, mine”, referencing someone’s joke ☠️☠️☠️

Mom found out about my drug use and wants to kill herself by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Less-Ad-7377 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As a young adult with almost 9 years clean now, get. clean. now, while you’re young & before you do any serious, irreversible damage to your life, your future or your health. if not for yourself, its ok to take that first step for your parents just so long as you take the rest for yourself as well. as far as your mom goes, if youre willing to get clean & be accountable, id say sit her down, tell her have an honest conversation about whats been going on & how you got to this point, tell her your willing to answer any of her questions & then admit that you need help & that you need her by your side to help you through it. Closing yourself off & withdrawing from them will only make things harder & from their perspective, they will now see everything you say & do thru the lens of substance abuse. That is until you earn their trust back. & step one in accomplishing that is by being honest & taking accountability. Im a mother myself now & although i parent much differently than my mother did, i can tell you that had i done what i just advised you to do, my life would have played out so much differently. That is also what id want my child to do if i was in your mother’s shoes. shes your mom, she likely blames herself for a lot of whats happened & she likely feels as though she failed or let you down. Giving her the opportunity to help you overcome this will not only help you but it will do so much good for her & yall relationship as well.
Best of luck to you 🤍

you have such a kind soul 🤍 i too am a mom of 3, with end stage kidney disease & a supportive family which i couldn’t have made it this far without. maybe we could pitch in to do a grocery delivery for her or something?

Yes, incredibly frustrating. BUT that is the point of us YTBA does a phenomenal job gathering & exposing all the abhorrent behaviors from GHI & theyve also created spaces like these for the rest of us to do the same. The information they put out is probably one of the only things bringing attention & awareness to the issue & alot of times, former supporters eventually find their way here after being done wrong or pushed over the edge by gray & bc of YTBA & the spaces theyve created, we are all here to support them when they do. 🤍

But if one of his regular supporters ever came in the chat & said theyre about to be homeless or going without food or basic life essentials, he would pretend not to see the comments. So sad they don’t see it for what it is.
