True Life's steadfast goal is to document unusual -- and often remarkable -- circumstances of young people. And when the MTV staple returns for a brand-new season, the long-running series will continue to tell stories featuring one-of-a-kind individuals as they navigate their own realities.

In a sneak peek from the upcoming installments, below, wide-ranging subjects are addressed -- from shooting victims, feedism (a food-based fetish), joining the fight against ISIS and much more. As is always the case, True Life will take a raw and real approach to bringing light to these important and current issues.

"Every person has their own path in life," one eloquent young man declares.

Catch the trailer in its entirety above, and watch True Life beginning on Wednesday, October 5 at 9/8c and then be sure to check True Life social accounts for brand-new episode updates.
