She’s absolutely intelligent, having a sister with the very same social anxiety, and her mind was always on the go, and she would tell me she had all these thoughts in her head. They need treatment, for mental illness or something. Idk, I’m not a dr. But these stories, and walks of life are so similar. May God please enlighten this beautiful being and give her the strength to love her self and the power to control choices. Be safe Laura.

laura, this is said with nothing but love and compassion- I hope you recieve the gift of exhaustion and desperation. like you I got a good education, i owned condo in wiliams island, i had a good job, owned my own business and had a massive drug problem that i was able to hide for years until there was no longer any hiding it. at the end of my 7 yr run I was in my car in overtown getting high for 12-16 hrs a day. I had plenty of family to stay with but I didn't want them to know how bad I'd gotten so I would sleep on a twin size blow up mattress in my friends studio apartment in kendall. I'd lost everything. everything. 3 yrs ago I checked into detox at jackson and stayed 7 days to kick fentanyl. went to treatment, went to sober living, got a home group, got a sponsor, with a 10% chance i got pregnant just a few months after I got clean. i turned 40 just before my one and only child turned 1. everything I lost I regained and of course so much more. it's not over til it's over, I hope the words that man at the NA meeting spoke to you haunt you, every moment of everyday until you cave. I hope you cave. this is my prayer for you sent out into the universe, through the ether because I hear you saying you don't want to quit but through your tears that follow immediately, I'm hard pressed to believe you. I hope you stay alive long enough to recieve the miracle. you deserve it, you matter and you're not alone.

I really feel for her mother. Her only child, she goes to America to get a good life, and her daughter hits the streets. I hope that lady knows that she is not alone and there are others that understand her.

I’m a retired professor & it’s important when I hear that these current addicts have an education. It’s something to build on. This woman can make it, but she’s entrenched in the Life. There’s something beyond it & when she realizes no one around her requires her help for their addictive needs there’s an exit available to her. Contact an animal rescue for the animals. They’ll be cared for well. Anytime a woman is tricking to support a man, that’s not her “man”. Let that guy bend over and sell his rear end. Worthless men are a trap, Sweetheart!!

I feel for you Laura especially after hearing your story of your fur babies. You sound like an intelligent person..you just need a break..sending good thoughts your way..

Laura, I relate to you and your feelings so much. I’ve been in and out of recovery for the past 12 years, I have 7 months sober and I’ve been obsessing over going back out even though my last run almost killed me. Listening to your honesty and struggles helped me today and I just want you to know that! Thank you

Such a smart girl with so much potential. Praying for her and her fur babies. The drugs are making her metal illness so much worse. She's still pretty and her brain still functions. That will change soon unless she gives everything to God and gets major help. It's not too late!

She is so smart and self-aware. I feel her being an only child. I have been through some stuff too back in the '90s. So many addicts and people in general lack self-awareness. I pray that she finds her way back. There is hope for recovery. ❤❤❤

Great interview

Peace love and compassion to everyone in the struggle ✌🏻💚from a broken man in Nj

May God bless her more than she can imagine in the holiest sense. I hope she's doing better today. Bringing awareness to the homeless and drug addiction problem in our city really serves as the necessary reminder of these harsh realities. I pray her and all others struggling with drug addiction problem find the strength to break free from the cycle of self-destruction.

She's very smart and I wish her the very best ❤. We have similar stories

You’re such a kind interviewer and people really open up with you. Thank you for these enlightening videos!! Wish the best for Laura.

She needs to go into a hospital for her addiction and get services from there. One thing at a time!

Please don't go back to drugs it's so deadly today you got a great future

I feel for her about how she feels about her animals.

34 and you got you're whole life just like the gentleman said

I feel a lot of the emotions she speaks of. I had a coke problem and alcohol problem for a while. It was a result of my ex raping me and beating me. I wound up getting evicted from my apartment due to my alcohol problem and wound up living out of my car. I lost many jobs in a row cause I could not get through them without DTs (it got to the point where my roommate had to literally bring me a drink to get out of bed as I was nearing 65 pounds and I was having seizures… I am 15 years recovered and currently 39) The alcohol and coke problem continued into and throughout my eating disorders, I had severe anorexia and bulimia…… Now at 39, I am in the process of getting dentures and it has been the most painful and emotional journey of my life. I had to suck up a lot of pride for it… but i am at a weight I worked so hard to never be at again (5’5 and under 100 again)… because I can’t eat solid food due to my past. I now have a husband and REAL friends that truly care and they have all pooled money to pay for my teeth and I have my first appointment this coming Monday. I am so blessed to have them in my life and truly, most genuinely, wish she can find those similar type of people to help her. I wish I had so much extra money… I would totally pay for her entire recovery…❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Is she ok today? its 1 year since the interview was made. any updates?

I'm surprised that I haven't seen this video. I have been hooked on these types of channels & this is by far one of the best interviews. Nearly 53 minutes long & I am very in tune, still.. Laura has an incredible story & she's very articulate. I pray she has found sobriety again, because I hate to see such a beautiful, smart, young amazing lady that this world, people could benefit from the knowledge she has within her. Laura, if you ever see this comment, please please reach out - sober or not, I genuinely want to connect in some way. I promise I'm not some creep, I am actually a older woman who understands completely & you don't sound crazy at all. I'm glad @Otherside took a chance on you.. You are worth it! Honestly, praying you found sobriety & are safe, well, loved & care about YOURSELF! All my best, Terry 🥰

Praying for the sick and suffering addict.❤

Greatful you're here to talk about it

She might be homeless but she’s got style !

You're such a great person you're future is better then a bunch of drugs that will destroy you and you're health

Being different is a blessing, embrace your uniqueness. Be yourself

Do a follow up on her please!

Keep doing the lords work and growing your channel.❤️🙏🏽 You may just help more people than you realize. I know for me watching this and listening reminds me of the exact reason I left this life behind. A lot of people don’t have anyone and you being there for them may be just what they need to make that change. ❤️

She should not have been evicted! Drugs should be legal!

Your fur babies need you you are strong get help your babies miss you go to them God Bless 🙏🏻

New sub here. So far I like this channel...ty for what you are doing out there. These people def need it. Prayers sweetie I hope and pray you overcome this horrible thing that took over. Addiction sucks so very bad. #Wedorecover

Laura, I wish you well. I wish you good health and peace. Close your eyes every day and pay attention to your breath. It may calm you.

Never give up on your kids you brought into this world. Never.

YOUR A SMART GIRL AND THE WORLD IS CROOKED BUT, YOU CAN GETS OFF OF THE DRUGS, AND DO SOMETHING THAT KEEPS YOU BUSY, I'M 8 YRS CLEAN FROM MORPHINE AND FENTANYL TOO !! IT'S BEEN A STRUGGLE BUT YOU CAN DO IT ! IT TOOK ME MULTI TRIES TO GETS CLEAN TOO BUT, ONCE I GOT BACK TO BEING A PERSON AGAIN, IT GOT EASIER ! MY DRUG DEALER WAS MY PAIN MANAGEMENT DR. WHOM PRESCRIBED THEM TO ME AFTER BEING SCREWED OVER BY AN WANNA BE EMERGENCY ROOM DR. he MISSED DIAGNOSED ME IN 2008 & I'VE SUFFERED A LOT!! IT CAUSED ME TO BE A NON FUNCTIONING- SHELL OF A PERSON ! I'M FUNCTIONING NOWS AND A FULL PERSON !! I STILL STRUGGLE TO STAY CLEAN FROM THEM BUT, I WATCH THESE VIDEOS TO KEEPS ME IN CHECK !!

She's spent her entire running from the slightest resistance into the harms of the world, and spent a life grasping at straws, as she fell backwards - time after time again. And of course, being a pet owner, I understand the pain of missing her pets and trying to get enough money to support habits and feed the furkids. She's just trying to do the bare minimum and just get by, but it's a hard hustle to do all that. If she'd just get clean! And I get it - I have 7-1/2 years of recovery that took me over a decade to start on. I hope she surrenders to getting clean, and getting life on track again, while she still has time.

Thank, you both

It's, would be the greatest thing that you ever down is walk away from all of the drugs

Time for a change Laura, I was in it til my 40’s don’t wait that long

Sending love out to her✨💜

Please get to recovery again. God needs you to show others it can be done

It's, no life in the streets you won't have nothing or own anything if you keep going were you're at. Great you're mom got clean that's wonderful now it's time for you to to come clean and let you're mom be proud of you to.

How can anyone do MDMA on a daily basis????? It is so strong and when it wears off you feel so drained and crappy. I am so shocked. She needs medication for the mental illness first and then she can get clean. The depression and anxiety and whatever else is going on. The problem is most people don't realize or think they need it.

You still have time to get clean off of the drug and get you're life togather and going back to school and get you're self a great job that you enjoy.

Dear Laura, if you are spiritual then know that you can change things. First of all realize that you deserve it, next step know that you can do it. Ask the universe to assist ✨

Girl you are an amazing person ❤ please go the other direction you are so smart please find your way out of this life style ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Over town is dark and haunted place I was born there you can feel it in the air

Using crack, meth and amphetamines to feel calm is crazy

I can't tell what are lies and what aren't. She owns multiple properties but is loafing around Florida homeless. She's missing a lot of teeth. Poor girl

They are always the best pets fr the shelter

I been lucky. Tried cigarettes-didnt like it. Tried weed-didnt like it. Tried drinking-didnt like it. Never tried anything else.

You matter Laura, your life matters , I've walked in your shoes and know your pain , if you're reading this at some point I'd love to chat with you , big ❤from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The Western God is Mammon/Money !!! not the Christian God of Compassion,,! ,!!!!

Where is she now?

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life Romans 10:9 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved

Smart individual.

Laura surrounds herself with dysfunctional people and dysfunctional thoughts. Her life could be better if she could join a convent filled with strict guidance and leave her past life behind her.

ZOV!
