Recovery: The process of learning to cope with feelings on a daily basis free from mind changing chemicals. The healthy family unit can be restored and all concerned parties are then able to live their own lives.

Hitting Bottom: Complete physical, mental and spiritual defeat. The condition when all power, family, job and money are lost before someone will accept help. It is no longer necessary to wait. Intervention and treatment are far better alternatives that have been proven to work before the individual hits their personal bottom.

Addiction: Compulsive and often uncontrollable craving, seeking, and use of a drug. The individual uses even when they know that using is not in their best interest. Addiction could be defined as chronically making the firm decision not to use, followed shortly by a Relapse due to experiencing overwhelming and compulsive urges to use despite the firm decision not to.

Abuse: The chronic or habitual use of any chemical substance to alter states of body or mind for reasons other than medically warranted purposes.

Treatment: A facility where recovering drug addicts learn about addiction, recovery and relapse while addressing misguided beliefs about self, others and their environment. Attending a Drug Abuse treatment program helps the recovering Drug Abuser make lifestyle changes, manage feelings and develop coping tools and drug refusal skills. In addition, they learn to identify relapse warning signs and challenge thoughts that may lead to relapse.

Now I’m Always Smiling (A Dark Knight Story)

HAPPY LABOR DAY!!

And I say that because without Labor Day Weekend, this probably wouldn’t have been made. It was half-finished by the time school started so I really had no hope that this would ever be done. And I KNOW I said that Happiness is a Warm Gun was my last video for a while, but THIS one is actually the last video (for a while)!

PLEASE READ THE NOT-SO-DESCRIPTIVE DESCRIPTION:

The story is set about 15-20 years ago since the Joker’s age is supposed to be around his late 30s, early 40s (despite the fact that Heath Ledger was in his 20s when he shot the film). I just kind of took the story that the Joker told Rachel about how he got his scars and ran with it — so here it is!

Emily Carey is walking the streets at night, trying to avoid a run in with the mob that she’s involved with, when she runs into none other than the future Joker. He’s warm towards her at first, quite taken with her, and convinces her to join him. The two bond and learn more and more about each other, including the Joker’s past with his alcoholic father, and her old family troubles as well. While she’s gone, he thinks about how close he’s growing to her, struggling whether he really should trust her or not since he’d had such a disappointing life. Eventually, he gives up his fight with himself to be with her while she keeps quiet about how involved she is with the mafia. However, she crumbles when the mob turns on her and asks him for help, even though she knows he’s unable to save her from the trouble she’s in. Caught and defenseless, they cut up her face and let her go with the humiliation she’s forced to live with. Emily can’t stand how awful she looks, and even though the Joker’s trying to be supportive, he can’t convince her to believe that scars don’t matter…so he does the UNTHINKABLE and mutilates himself (to her horror). Ultimately, she leaves him and the Joker is born from the ashes of despair.

Clips Used:
The Dark Knight
V for Vendetta
10 Things I Hate About You
Sweeney Todd

Song:
Nothing Else Matters by Apocalyptica (edited)

Reasons for Natalie Portman, of all people:
Must I list all of them? She’s a natural beauty, sort of like Maggie Gyllenhaal, so that’s why I would think that the Joker might be interested in Rachel. Natalie is also a very convincing and emotional actress in almost every film that she’s in (especially in V for Vendetta). Sorry if you’re disappointed by my choice, but I like her in my portrayal of his wife.

Inaccuracies:
OH WAIT — THEY’RE MARRIED??
I know there’s no “marriage” scene, because even though the Joker did admit he had a wife, part of me doesn’t like that idea. I think I would have preferred them to have just fallen in love in their youth while they dated and THEN their relationship fell apart. But all the same, he does safe wife in my video so I’m sorry I forgot to include a scene of their wedding.

Wewt – that’s a lot of text…
ENJOY.

Patrick Swayze ♥ – The Truth – A Barbara Walters Special ♥ – [Part 4/5]

Patrick Wayne Swayze (August 18, 1952) is a three-time Golden Globe-nominated American actor, dancer and singer-songwriter. Son of Patricia “Patsy” Yvonne Helen (née Karnes) — a choreographer, dance instructor, and dancer — and Jesse Wayne Swayze, an engineering drafter. Although the surname “Swayze” is of Norman French origin, he is of mainly Irish descent, as well as some Apache ancestry. His brother, Don Swayze, is also an actor.

Until age 20, Swayze lived in the Oak Forest neighborhood of Houston, where he attended St. Rose of Lima Catholic School, Oak Forest Elementary School, Black Middle School, and Waltrip High School. During this time, he also pursued multiple artistic and athletic skills, such as ice skating, classical ballet and acting in school plays. He studied gymnastics at nearby San Jacinto College for two years. In 1972, he moved to New York City to complete his formal dance training at the Harkness Ballet and Joffrey ballet schools.

Swayze has been married to Lisa Niemi since 1975. The couple first met in 1970, when Lisa, then age 16, was taking dance lessons from Swayze’s mother. Niemi was born in Houston, Texas to her Finnish-American parents, Edmond Melvin Haapaniemi and Edna Karin Hyttinen. As a reaction to his father’s death by heart attack, in 1982, Swayze began to drink heavily. His sister Vicky passed away in 1994, leading him to seek treatment for alcoholism. After initial recovery, he temporarily withdrew from show business, retreating to his ranches in California and Las Vegas, New Mexico, to breed Arabian horses. His best-known horse was the late Tammen, a chestnut Arabian stallion.

Swayze, a licensed pilot with an instrument rating, made the news again on June 1, 2000 while flying with his dogs in his twin-engine Cessna from Van Nuys, California to Las Vegas, New Mexico. His plane developed a pressurization problem over northern Arizona, causing Swayze to make a precautionary landing on a dirt road in a housing complex in Prescott Valley. The plane’s right wing struck a light pole that he hadn’t seen from the air, but Swayze was unharmed. He locked up the cockpit, left it parked in the subdivision, and obtained a ride (with his dogs) from a passing vehicle, allegedly in order to telephone the authorities. According to the police report, witnesses said that Swayze appeared to be extremely intoxicated and asked for help to remove evidence (including an open bottle of wine and a 30-pack of beer) from the crash site.

He also made himself unavailable to police for several hours. It was later determined that the alcohol in question was not in the cabin but stored in external storage compartments inaccessible in flight and that the alleged “intoxication” was due to the effects of hypoxia during descent. He has followed several spiritual traditions. Brought up a Roman Catholic, he has also studied the Bahá’í Faith, Buddhism and Scientology.
