@MitchM1911 @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 But you can’t come to the conclusion that nobody truly wants to help him if you’re not hearing about it on social media. Those who really care aren’t going to be posting him in his current state. That’s an impossible conclusion to come to if you’re spectating from the outside

@MitchM1911 @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 Agreed. It’s been entirely exploitative and I can imagine that the increased attention has made it worse. His story went viral and then all of the content roaches came crawling out of the cracks.

Tylor Chase is back to happily sleeping on the streets after trashing his hotel room, and there’s nothing the police can do to help the former child actor because of California laws.

@NeonFootnote @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 You might be an exception to that though

@NeonFootnote @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 The human brain is one of the most complex systems in the known universe. ~86 billion neurons and trillions of connections continuously transmitting information

@NeonFootnote @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 That’s complex af

@infamousbilly @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 But you’re so right about the importance of voluntary treatment. Those who voluntarily seek treatment are far more successful than those who are legally forced to seek treatment

@ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 I hate to say it but I agree. I think the major things with addicts. They need to want help. He didn't reached out, people reached out to him. And while they had great intentions. At the end of the day you can't help people who don't want help

@infamousbilly @ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 Meth hijacks your reward system and will raise dopamine levels above 1200% of normal. When they’re in the grips of a full fledged meth binge, the only thing that they feel they need is meth. I think that he’s in a full fledge binge and is unable to have a rational perspective

@ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 That’s not to say that I’m trying to absolve him of his behavior or choice to use drugs. But we should resist from reducing a complex human being into some soulless street rat. I agree that it’s frustrating to witness. But meth abuse isn’t nature taking its course

@ArizonaJTG @Raindropsmedia1 He was also diagnosed with a serious mental disorder and had dealt with psychosis prior to his addiction. He is worthy of compassion and hope. He has loved ones. He needs the help of someone without a camera though

@White_Ghost187 Some cultures make more use of their hands when eating as opposed to using utensils. It’s cultural, but he’d likely be using a spoon if he were raised in a different setting. Why does he deserve your ire and debasement?
