My husband died with 18 years clean. I sang this song to him when we took him off life support. I have stayed clean by the grace of god. He had 1 day more clean then me. I miss him so much.
Super Proud of you both . Strong Couple ,! ❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦 I want to say your very lucky to have had that time, and look at you , I’m so proud of you for staying strong inside,and your doing it,and setting a beautiful example,that this can be beat sweetheart. Hang tight ok. My name is Michele,if you need an ear ok. Your not alone ok. 🌈🌈🌈❤️❤️❤️💕
Makes me think of my best friend who just couldn't shake his habit. Took his own life. I've missed him ever since. Good luck to anyone fighting the demons. Love and light
This song saved my daughter. One night I sang this at a neighbourhood bar, it was Karakoe time. I dedicated to her. You see she is an addict. Her drug of choice at this time was anything she could get her hands on :( After I sang this song, she cried and held me so tight, she whispered she was ready for rehab!! My daughter has been straight since that day!!!!
An active cigarette smoker age 8, active alcoholic at age 9 and drug user age 10 and after over 40 years of use on more than off I am free of all the above. A three year active member of my church, an active volunteer in my church and community. A widow twice and mother of three adult children with one grandchild, and we are all, due to the grace of God, active in one another's lives. Thank you Jesus. Amen
I did three tours in Vietnam got into drugs and alcohol really heavy. It almost destroyed me. By the grace of God, I was able to turn my life around; now clean.
Thank you service , you survive 3 tours in Vietnam , my real dad came back in 1971 or 72 and promptly left my 20 y/o Mom & Me . I get it 'War is hell '. But I met him when I was 21 & he ceased all contact with my late Mom & Me . Hence he is a Prick. Tom Jones is his name 'door gunner ' on a heli , US Army , 'guessing 70-72 or 69-71. JIC. Great job puttin down the D & Booze.
Took my 14 year old son to see Black Crowes for his first concert. He is 40 now and still remembers the show. He returned the favor and introduced me to Tool in 2000. It changed me forever. Music has been our bond since our first concert together.
Amen. Music appreciation with my daughter got us thru 6yrs living in Saudi, then us living alone with only each other in the US for 4yrs trying to rebuild a life left a lifetime ago. No one can come between us...not even her father. We are still building, brick by brick and tucked mortar.😊
Much love to everyone out there that's been- broken,alone,damaged,scared,hurt, lost + in pain, life never gets easier but it will get better we r all strong enough to survive what life brings
God bless 🙏 my Aunt Margaret who passed at 40 years..Too soon, and this was her favorite song. I'm 43 with 7 weeks in a large mass brain tumor diagnosis after a seizure. Im hoping for the best outcome, but sometimes God plants real messages ...I mean, since 35 God was telling me I'll be gone in my mid 40's. Kept telling my family I heard this spoken to me and I should prepare..God Bless you 🙏 ❤ and your family. Dont ignore 3 week headaches especially on one side of your head.. much love
I met my girlfriend when I was a senior and she was a freshman last year, and although she doesn't use drugs, she does come from a broken, abusive home. I remember when she first started talking to me, I told her about Jesus and Christianity; I really believe after 18 years of my life of never having love or a girlfriend, I really believe Jesus put this girl in my life. She's my best friend and she's perfect.
If only you had known Me before the accident, cause with that grand collision came a great consequence.... 1998 by THE MOST HIGH did this by design.... pronounced dead for 2 minutes Kindred Spirits hospital.... MOST HIGH sent to violence rung of hell.... wasn't awake or aware.... MOST HIGH brought Me back... by design..... Your sins have been forgiven MY Son..... This was by MOST HIGH's design..... Five Commands For Fighting.... From God.... Faith in God.... I'm Jesus Christ and I'm a sinner.... Day Walker Eric
Remember what she went through sometimes the hurt causes you to not believe that you deserve to be happy, it can make you push away the things in your life you love the most so you don't ruin it. Finding real trust in someone is hard after all you've known has been broken. Reassurance is always necessary, and really being able to express your emotions. Don't ever assume anything ask the only stupid question is the one you don't ask. 😊 Sorry just some thoughts from a girl who's been there. I hope you love and happiness, peace and prosperity follow you all the days of your life.
Sorry about your loss, as a mother of 1 former addict and 1 relapser. I am always wondering if, the call I get will be the last.. My son is in jail at moment, which I am ok with- means I can breathe for awhile. Without the worrying. My daughter is the one been clean awhile now, met a great fella and plans on getting her kids back. She spends every other weekend with them. She now works hard also.
Very lonely place to pass. Seen a few in my 28 years working in corrections. The saddest for me were young men committing suicide. Once a person goes to prison the never forget it. Prison is a kind of loneliness you never for get
My dad took his life when I was 9. He would always play the Black Crowes in the garage and smoke a cigarette. This was his favorite band. I remember all the neighbors talking about how the could here the music all the way down the street. Long live dad❤️
My daughter and I shared a love for music. She lived a few states away. Monthly I would send her a song and less regularly she would send me one. She committed suicide in Aug 2023 at the age of 36. I sent her this song a couple of weeks before that. She replied she had always loved it. My sweet angel!!!
No one can judge you but the good Lord and I've not heard of him hiring any help on the judgment department. Unless you have swim in what drowned me you'll never know my struggles my pain my failures... But thanks to our awesome God for not judging me just loving me and my owning and realizing I was an addict my music gave me the will to find some bits of strength to get up out the dark deep whole I was in. There was no where left to go but up. I am proudly a recovering addict now for 6 years years June 2 2018 Ive been clean of crack cocaine. Can I get a AMEN. 🙏🙏🙏💯🪷🪷
Anyone using music to heal yourself from what ever it might it be you are strong and you can get through it all. Music heals the soul along with a lot of other help, you all should be proud and hopefully you will get through
This is the first time since I've been able to listen to music since my Son passed away in 2018. My Son had a ton of songs saved on UA-cam and it's taken me this long to start listening to them. And you're so right about music heals our souls!! Prayers to all out there in this world, it's not easy but my Son's famous words, "It is what it is."
Just lost my mamaw tonight to corona virus, she was a meth addict and had a very hard life but was a fighter. Your in a better place now and not in pain anymore. Rest in peace I love you mamaw 🙏❤
I just recently escaped an abusive, toxic, drug filled relationship and this song hits SO close to home, I cant help but cry. I had to live it in order to understand the meaning of this beautiful song ❤
Chelsea Grin Good job getting out. I got out 4 months ago. Stayed high 24/7, depressed, and blaming myself for being so judgmental on their behavior towards me. New start! We be us now and do what is good for us! We deserve that. I’m real happy for ya!🙂
I've always felt a soul connection w/ this song I was given a hard life I made even harder to live. Not just in addiction but surviving what helped me to become one .I've now got 18yrs sober shocked ,proud and grateful everyday
I feel the same way about this song. About a month ago a neighbor of mine played this song loud enough I could hear it by my apt. I just stood by my garden silently, just taking this song in
This song holds a special place in anyones heart who has ever been there and lived to talk about it. Stay strong. There is a life after addiction. I am living proof. 25 Years Clean. On a more humble side of things, it took me a number of tries to get there. Never stop trying !!!!
Started smoking cigarettes at 9, alcohol 15, weed, coke 17, Crack 25, heroin 29 clean 1 yr I'm 51!!! I've lived a hell of a INTERESTING LIFE, a life where i met some of the best AND worst people. But, am in a very good place now. May God be with everyone who is struggling! It does and can get better.
40 days clean today and looking to find that true self of mine to keep and hold on to forever. Have finally found the hope and desire to carry on and move forward in my sobriety and recovery. Re-Learning to live life again which is a hard feat, but it's getting better every day. Grateful to be sober today. Have faith in 'you' and life will work itself out
I am 13 months clean have taken hep c treatment and completed it 3 weeks ago. Was on a 5 year daily meth burn. I am 66 years old and free. Life is beautiful
I'm 63 and I've never felt a single song as deep and Kind of hard as this one. But man! It's like he just reached in to my soul .with this one it feels so real. And I know that you should feel good music but this is the best and worst of all together I've ever heard . You the man. Love love love you and your music jelly roll. And God bless you and your family. ❤
May God Shed his Grace upon everyone here who Listens and reads.. now 2023 heard this song from its beginning.. never once looses it meaningful significance it puts on one’s soul. 💯🇺🇸💯🌪🌎🙏👀
11 years sober. Best decision I ever made and worse hell I have ever been thru. Prayers and love to everyone struggling. You have the strength in you. I promise.
I'm a pastor first time seeing all these comments if any of you need to talk just just talk I'm here for you all and proud of you who is still going strong God bless
Hey man, I grew up in the church and I feel like God isn't all that worried that I enjoy heroin but I want to quit. It seems like the spiritual side of it is moot for me, but if I don't figure something out I'm not gonna make it. What say you?
@@lambot3g sounds like you are grabing the wheel and taking control of your own life, you have free will to do as you please but is it pleaseing to you and others is what must be asked...glad to hear your ready for a change
What's missing from life is a friend who listens well and asks for nothing in return. I jumped out of bed and sceamed like a moron long ago... thank you for guiding me there angels.
One of the most profound songs ever written. Saw them perform it on Saturday night live in 91. I keep coming back to it after all these years. It really hits some of us deep and always will.
Love this song so much! I lost My Momma in 2005 to that monster called CANCER! I think of Her every time I hear this! No She wasnt an Addict nor am I but I do talk to Her every night and She My Angel!!! #loveandmissmymomma!
I'm a addict of alcoholism and I'm 120 Days clean an a structure fire fighter and heading to college again for thermal engineering with HVAC and I'm a national wildlands fire fighter keep pushing to your dreams y'all your not alone ❤
Aeesum man keep it up...drugs and alcohol are devils tools to bring u down low..pray to God..he will hellp with all things..I used to be a hardcore pothead..now that I'm with God..I don't have a y urges or cravings.. praise GOD!!!
I found this song and played this for my wife , at the time she was having problems and struggling with being able to tell what was reality and what wasn't. She was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder after us being married 13 years and having two kids. So I told her that those voices she heard in her head had to be angels because she was mine Sent From Heaven !!! so I found the song begin to play it, as she began to cry !!!
Angels and demons have always been real. Their existence is just denied these days. Angels infuse thoughts that are from God. Demons infuse thoughts from the devil. He hates God and seeks to hurt Him by turning people away from Him, convincing people He and the devil and angels and demons are not real (or worse, that God and the angels that serve Him are the bad guys, rather than Satan and the fallen angels, also called demons.) The devil tempts us to open doors to the devil through breaking the commandments and dabbling in the occult. He then can legally torment us. If she is Catholic, she can return to the Sacrament of confession and Mass and pray the rosary daily and adore Jesus and be liberated. If she is not, she is welcome to convert. Many of the Catholic Churches have become modernist which is not the fullness of truth and hence does not contain the full liberating power contained within the fullness of the Church’s teaching. God is good. He loves her. He sent His Son to be born, live and die for all people, and He also gave us a Mother in Mary- because, as children need a loving Father, so too a loving Mother… three Hail Mary’s for all who read this.
Jace Hudgens 🙏🏻 and, just be there for him💗He don’t need to hear anything right now! I’m sure he had heard enough, been judged, put down, etc. your brother is in a very delicate state right now and a not so bright place:( so, best to just Be there for him and be kind☺️ Mostly, never bring up the Drug subject to him!!!! Wish him the very best and pray that God will wake him up in his own way🙏🏻💜
My name is Donna Mirin. I live in Las Vegas Nevada. I am 63 years old. I lost my left leg due to heroin which is my own fault in 2015 is now February 14, 2024. I said to everybody out there just trust and believe trust and believe always don’t lose your faith God love you out there is still trust and believe it always gets better. God bless.
Just wanna put a prayer out there for us low life's. Could you imagine feeling the pain makes everything better. Lord bless those in suffering and carry the weak in mind. Fill with love and help us to love ourself again. God bring us peace, Lord Jesus, Amen.
Herb Jr some of us hurt so deep that pain is the only thing that can ease the pain we are going threw. if that makes sense to you but you have had to been really deep to understand a statement like this. either way best wishes in your journey called life.
This song always had meaning for me, but about 2 months ago I almost died...and I was in a void and I was begging Michael the archangel to let me stay...I am here still and so grateful to be alive! I have four sons and two nieces that need me here on earth. I am grateful for angels!
I commented 13 months ago when I had a little over a year clean from a 10 year opiate/heroin addiction. August 8th 2019 I celebrated 27 months! Never lose hope #wedorecover
Donna West People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Neither does bathing. That’s why i recommend it daily! Congratulations, you opened the gates of hell and you let yourself out! You’re an amazingly beautiful person!!
If you were a teenager in the 90s, this will take you back. Back to a better more simpler time. A time when life was so great. Here's to the 90s, best of times, best of music.
I talk to angels Every Single Day. My niece died at 36 from Huntingtons disease. My husband who I spent more than half my life with passed. I'm lost...lonely and I thank God for my music 💔

Been alcohol free for over ten years and it took a drunk pissing all over himself in a jail cell and a prayer to God to take this from me and he did,right then and there,it's a feeling I can never forget,thanks again Lord
My Wife is very sick, we have been married 11 years and have been together for 12. She sent me this song when i left the hospital the other night and just broke down in tears. I love you so much Tammy your the most beautiful person God has ever created and I've been such a lucky man to have had such a great life with you. In my soul we are together for eternity. Husbands please dont take your time for granted, enjoy every moment, the happy, the sad, and the beautiful. Tammy I love you more than the oceans 💗💕👫💘
Ryan Ward, I understand. What was important one day, doesn't matter the next. Priorities changing every day. I feel for you brother. Can't have happy without sad. Nothing is warm without cold. peace
geoffreyjones2000 Thank you for the kind words friend. Just trying to keep myself together and try not to think why theirs so much pain in this world. If i could trade spots with her i wouldnt even hesitate for a tenth of a second, she is such a rare type of person so selfless and caring, i just love her and always will forever. Thanks again its nice to know people do care about people in the world it means alot to me.
I have been off herione since Feb 6 2019 , I've missed so much in my ten years of addiction , now I'm doing urban exploring and I love it !!! Glad I made it to get sober
My husband loved this song he said it reminds him of his Mom..He,s.with his Momma now and he is in the arms of his angel.I wished you were still here Curt. But the Good Lord was ready to take you home
We did not all get wrecked by drugs or alcohol, but if we are all really honest, we all have issues. I can only say thank God for Grace and Mercy, of we would all be rambling wrecks. Sin you can't see is the same as sin you can see, just manifested differently.
Different demons...same battles. We all have or love someone who has that battle with their demons....all we can be is part of their strength and faith that will help them beat those demons. God bless....
All you struggling....keep going....you are some of the strongest ppl out there....dealing with the most...you can do this...and lead others to the path of happiness!
Dillard Jones Some shit you gotta let die, even unchanged or without an apology, from those who have wronged you. Put it down, walk away, forgive yourself 100%. What’s done is done. Take the learning of it and move forward with pride for surviving.
Some don't get nothing but grief until its to late then people act like they love them . why won't they get clean or why did they do this ... Knowing damn well what would happen when you nag and gripe pushing them to want to shut the insecurities and the voice of reason off .
I'm 56 yrs old and I'm still fighting to survive. It's always there. No matter how long you beat it, it's still there. U feel good when you are there. The pain of the past is gone, for a while. Keep fighting.
@@freeb1111 thanks Bobby! There's alot of us out there. Good people, bad habits! We got to stick together cause if you haven't been there u don't know.
Ive never posted anything yet but .. yep I see u and thanks u keep fighting to.. I’m just some dumb 51 ur old gurl who feels the same way I think 💭 take care
Idk why I'm sharing this really but, my mama dedicated this to me the day I got out of Prarie view at the age of 15 for cutting and pill popping. I come from a long line of addicts on my dads side of the family. I'm 24 now with an amazing life clean and ni self harming, when things get tough I find myself on this song. No matter how hard things are you're strong and things will get better!! ❤
My daughter went thru self harm. That was the MOST HELPLESS feeling I've ever had. I had prepared myself for boys, sneaking out, partying etc but she skipped all of that and went straight to the end game. She was 13. Her first puppy love has just dumped her that week.. She blamed me because I told her he was a good kid and she trusted me and I let her down... Her friend two doors down committed suicide on Sunday night.. Just hours after playing in our yard.. But there's more to her story.. Then she had her first cycle on Monday. She found out her friend died when it was announced at school over the PA system in a very cold manner. She went to the bathroom to be alone when her very recent ex told her "I wish it was you that died"!!! She went to the girls bathroom, (Thank God she didn't use the single stall room..) she broke the mirror and took that broken glass and started hacking at her wrists. She meant it... No hesitation cuts... All deep but thankfully she mixed the vein a friend of hers came looking for her and found her sitting In the floor, crying and covered in blood
@@Susan-oz3eg oh my gosh Susan!! I'm so sorry for what u are going thru & what ur baby is going thru right now! I kno exactly what she us going thru unfortunately self harm of every kind was my path for far too long. The best advice I can give u is the pain is going to be for awhile she is going to need to cry & scream & say things ur not going to understand bc of not only the things she is going thru in life but the hurt that she must feel to hurt herself that way is so deep it doesnt just go away any time soon. A lot of ppl r going to try & tell you how to help her. I kno I am& i don't kno u but I kno that pain & I would try to get her the best help possible there is a place called Mercy Ministries that is a place for girls a Christ based place they help girls with cutting. Eating disorders & ect. . . if you need to talk or want to talk more... I'm here.. im Lace by the way! 🙂God Bless I'm praying for you& your family!
Mallory Rodriguez I can relate to you because I was a cutting 10 pulse years I fell off the wagon two days life is struggle I lost my identical twin she was 39 that was the worst day of my life the one I trust you with my secrets I was molested at the age of two until I was 16 You’re a beautiful young lady and you can do this to you soon God bless you
Thats an awesome share! I love it, God bless you and your family, and just all of us. Life's a hell of a ride, thats for sure! I am a mother of two boys and thats what kind of love I have for my two boys as well, as most loving mom's do. I hope everything continues well for you and your family on your journey! 👨👩👦👦💪🙏👍
@@melindawilkerson5350 The devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy!! Thats why we must surrender to Jesus Christ!! Then he will do good works in us...and turn your life around!!
casey leedham wow!! Amazing if I could just do it myself before I am dead. My hat is off to all the sober facing lifes pain on lifes terms phenomenal!!!!
I've been battling the disease of addiction for over 20yrs! Been winning this fight for 16yrs w/an occasional lapse, the last one being 16mos ago!! Did u know that addiction lives in the same part of your brain that tells u you're hungry, eat. You're thirsty, drink..?? The ONLY difference between an addict and that teenager that does a line or has a drink & can PUT IT DOWN is that they're not hardwired for the disease! It's a proven biological screw up. Please have this talk with the young ones in your lives! Don't ever try a drug! U may not be able to stop w/o a life long battle! Pray for the still suffering addict.

Sarah Swails Schmitt sober 16 years and it is still as sneaky as ever.....haven't relapsed on alcohol or cocaine or H because I use pot. Marijuana can help with the battle of addiction
My daughter died in February 2024 of a drug overdose and I miss her so much she was only 32 and tried to stop the drugs so many times. I love you Cayla and I hope you have found some peace. I think of you every hour of every day❤
I'm struggling with alcohol use. I know it's not because I /need/ the alcohol, it's because the alcohol numbs things I don't want to work through. I hope we can all eventually find the strength to deal with our pasts. Love you all.
I was addicted to painkillers for years. I won't push religion on you, though that is what saved me and saves me every day. I have 13 years clean. What it boils down to is 2 things: first, you gotta want it. You gotta CRAVE SOBRIETY. you gotta be so sick of the day in day out grind: getting it, using, making sure you have enough to function, staying straight in front of people, hiding the severity of it, hiding why you're medicating, the fear of running out and the withdrawals, rinse and repeat over and over and overrrrrrrrrr...... Then you gotta be willing to admit that there is a higher power: be it God, Jehovah, Allah, Buddah, Jesus, Hulk frigging Hogan- SOMEONE OR SOMETHING that controls life. And you gotta give thanks that YOU ARE HERE. You're broken and you're hurting but dammit you are here and you can FIGHT. be thankful. Realize how many have lost this same fight and know, that you are here for a reason. Fight to live. Fight to survive. Fight for your purpose. You matter. Fight. We need you.
Hey yeah,I did the whole Devil went down 2 Georgia .From 12years 2 43years old clean 10 years.YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU REALISE.Best bit you already on give up journey cause you ain't in denial.power 2 ya.SET YOUSELF FREE.
Yes it is a real struggle that I wish I could get that monkey off my back everyday. I have lost a child to it and the pain is so unbearable at times but I refuse to give up to let other people's judgement of me break my will bc they it's a simple but man if I could get them to walk in my shoes or live the hell alive in daily with iti would in heartbeat but nobody wants to try it. I hope nobody ever has to go down the path I have. Wish they could understand and when I ask for help help me bc it's the best I can do at that moment
I lost my mama from accidentally over dosed I feel you so much I was going to play this at her service but my sister and niece held her service without me and said that I killed her they are addicts and they want to hide the truth about her addiction and they're not going to anything but to try to make it invisible to everyone else but I'm not going to hide it and they won't talk to me and my family are afraid of me cause I'm going to speak to the truth about what they are and not talking to me anymore I don't care they have done a lot to me and it hurts but alone I am just praying for them I would never do anything bad to them I love them I will always love them all but yes addiction will bring heartache and I have been praying about it and you I feel you on that loss and my prayers are with you and your family God bless you and your family God will bless you and help you with the heart ache I know that for sure but sometimes it takes a lot of time to finally see that blessings on you and the pain it won't ever be able to make it go away but trust me I know that you will be in The healing and I promise you will be able to make sense of it all and my friend I love you and want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers God bless you all and hope is what you hold on to and Faith
Each time I hear this song I think of my dad, who passed away when I was just 16yrs old. He was a wonderful father, but just like all of us he had his own battles. I thank God for the last 8 years of his life when he was completely sober! He was a benger. Sober for a couple years then fall off for a few months. But I can honestly say throughout the 16yrs I had with him, he was the best dad anyone could ask for! He was loved by many and still remembered by all of the lives he touched. He was big into giving back no matter how successful he was, which btw he was very successful despite his battles! He was killed instantly when he was otw home on his Harley when a deer ran out n front of him, not even 50 yards from our house. After that I became very angry at God, went down a wrong Rd and years later ended up an addict myself (opiates). He passed 7/26/99 and my first daughter was born 7/15/03. She saved me in a since. Although it wasn't a planned pregnancy, I know God blessed me with her because she's the reason I stopped using and I couldn't have asked for a better child. It took me a while to figure out that God doesn't close one door without opening another! I miss my dad very much, but loosing my husband 3yrs ago unexpectedly, car accident, I've found myself wondering what good can come from this?! It's the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with! But I will continue to live my life for the sake of my kids!
Matt Watkins thank you for your kind comment! It's so sad how the two most important men of my life were called home too early! I know our heavenly Father has a larger plan than any man or women alive could even begin to understand. Loosing my father like I did, then my husband 13yrs later. Both so suddenly unexpected. The only thing that keeps my sanity n check, are my two girls!
I truly hope no one out there may be thinking that Im not being truthful about my hardships! And I'm not searching for pity either. It's just me and my girls living one day at a time. I don't have many friends mostly because of living in a small SC town. My main goal is to just see if there's anyone else out there that's went through what my family and I have endured. Even before my dad's death there were freak accidents. My paternal grandfather is the one we were expecting, colon cancer. To those who took the time to read the short version of my life, thank you so much!
You are welcome! Sorry for all you have lost. I haven't been tho as much you have. But I do believe GOD is using you!! We all have our on demons. I no I still fighting mine. With battle of alcohol and opium's. But I will always gave GOD the Gory!! I am praying for you! And keep me in your prayers to? always in Jesus name!!!

I talk to Him like I would talk to anyone else. I believe many people genuinely need professional therapy, but for me, I chose to have conversations with God when I lost my husband at 38 from a heart attack. Whatever works for people, I'm all for it.
Almost daily..I’m trying to get better about not being selfish with wanting a better life. I’m more thankful for this experience and my family is wonderful. Well most of them. God bless.
Reading these comments and seeing everyone in their battles, I’m so proud of all of you who have come so so far, and I’m so proud of everyone here with the courage to take even the smallest first step. Keep going, I believe in all of you 💕
To all of you amazing people who have shared with a comment. and to all those who are reading, and those who may never find there way here. All those who are sober, struggling, not yet there, or who have lost someone to it. May your burdens be lifted, your pain be eased, and you always know that you are never alone. So much love in my heart for you all.

SO SORRY TO HEAR THAT. SHE IS IN A BETTER PLACE, WHERE SHE IS NOT SUFFERING ANYMORE, AS SHE WAS.. I KNOW IT BREAKS YOUR HEART.. ITS YOUR MOM, OF COURSE YOUR GOING TO BE DEVASTATED# JUST REMEMBER, SHE IS AT PEACE NOW# WITH OUR FATHER, NO MORE FIGHTING THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE # YOU JUST ALWAYS THINK OF THE GOOD TIMES YOU GUYS HAD IN YOUR LIFE.. NOT THE NEGATIVE PART. YOU SEEM TO GET MORE UPSET THINKING ABOUT THE CRAPPY TIMES.. LAUGH. AND ENJOY THE GREAT MEMORIES.. GOD BLESS YOU- KC Lee

This song saved my daughter. One night I sang this at a neighbourhood bar, it was Karakoe time. I dedicated to her. You see she is an addict. Her drug of choice at this time was anything she could get her hands on :( After I sang this song, she cried and held me so tight, she whispered she was ready for rehab!! My daughter has been straight since that day!!!!
To get clean is nothing short of a miracle!! To stay clean is the grace from above!!!
Awesome, thanks 4 sharing... spiritual experience. Sounds like her spirit was touched.
Well done
Loves to yall

I did three tours in Vietnam got into drugs and alcohol really heavy. It almost destroyed me. By the grace of God, I was able to turn my life around; now clean.
My dad did a tour. Same stuff. Stay strong
Thank you for your service and congratulations on getting clean.

You saw war and still believe in a god?
Thank you service , you survive 3 tours in Vietnam , my real dad came back in 1971 or 72 and promptly left my 20 y/o Mom & Me . I get it 'War is hell '. But I met him when I was 21 & he ceased all contact with my late Mom & Me . Hence he is a Prick. Tom Jones is his name 'door gunner ' on a heli , US Army , 'guessing 70-72 or 69-71. JIC. Great job puttin down the D & Booze.
Took my 14 year old son to see Black Crowes for his first concert. He is 40 now and still remembers the show. He returned the favor and introduced me to Tool in 2000. It changed me forever. Music has been our bond since our first concert together.
Tool is one of the best bands in music history.
I agree! An amazing band, just saw my 15th show in Biloxi in January.
Amen. Music appreciation with my daughter got us thru 6yrs living in Saudi, then us living alone with only each other in the US for 4yrs trying to rebuild a life left a lifetime ago. No one can come between us...not even her father. We are still building, brick by brick and tucked mortar.😊
I think of my sister when I play this song she was a alcoholic for al out of years thank God for his grace
Black Crows was my first concert as well ❤

I met my girlfriend when I was a senior and she was a freshman last year, and although she doesn't use drugs, she does come from a broken, abusive home. I remember when she first started talking to me, I told her about Jesus and Christianity; I really believe after 18 years of my life of never having love or a girlfriend, I really believe Jesus put this girl in my life. She's my best friend and she's perfect.
I'M SO PROUD OF YOU AND HOPEFULLY Y'ALL ARE STILL GOING STRONG!!! ONE DAY AT A TIME TAKE CARE STAY SAFE AND GOD ✝️ BLESS 🕊️ 5JAN22

I understand. Our deamons don't have to be drugs and alcohol. May you always be happy and God Bless your union.
Remember what she went through sometimes the hurt causes you to not believe that you deserve to be happy, it can make you push away the things in your life you love the most so you don't ruin it. Finding real trust in someone is hard after all you've known has been broken. Reassurance is always necessary, and really being able to express your emotions. Don't ever assume anything ask the only stupid question is the one you don't ask. 😊 Sorry just some thoughts from a girl who's been there. I hope you love and happiness, peace and prosperity follow you all the days of your life.
All you young folk take a true listen to this song. Be a cool alive soul.
My husband was a heroin addict and died in prison at the age of 37 still miss him and now I'm almost 75. God bless you all 💔
I'm so sorry for your loss. I know your pain.
Sorry about your loss, as a mother of 1 former addict and 1 relapser.
I am always wondering if, the call I get will be the last.. My son is in jail at moment, which I am ok with- means I can breathe for awhile. Without the worrying.
My daughter is the one been clean awhile now, met a great fella and plans on getting her kids back. She spends every other weekend with them. She now works hard also.
Very lonely place to pass. Seen a few in my 28 years working in corrections. The saddest for me were young men committing suicide. Once a person goes to prison the never forget it. Prison is a kind of loneliness you never for get

My daughter and I shared a love for music. She lived a few states away. Monthly I would send her a song and less regularly she would send me one.
She committed suicide in Aug 2023 at the age of 36.
I sent her this song a couple of weeks before that. She replied she had always loved it.

No one can judge till they walk your path.... only GOD ~ THANK GOD!!!
MsAmos61 preach
If there was such a thing as a god, and for some unknown reason that god cared about judging people, your comment might be true. As is, ummmm, no.
No one can judge you but the good Lord and I've not heard of him hiring any help on the judgment department. Unless you have swim in what drowned me you'll never know my struggles my pain my failures... But thanks to our awesome God for not judging me just loving me and my owning and realizing I was an addict my music gave me the will to find some bits of strength to get up out the dark deep whole I was in. There was no where left to go but up. I am proudly a recovering addict now for 6 years years June 2 2018 Ive been clean of crack cocaine. Can I get a AMEN. 🙏🙏🙏💯🪷🪷

ADDICTION
Anyone using music to heal yourself from what ever it might it be you are strong and you can get through it all. Music heals the soul along with a lot of other help, you all should be proud and hopefully you will get through
Everyday !
I really like this song.
YES, The right music lifts my spirit. I struggled my entire life. One for another.. I am free today.. HALLELUJAH
This is the first time since I've been able to listen to music since my Son passed away in 2018. My Son had a ton of songs saved on UA-cam and it's taken me this long to start listening to them. And you're so right about music heals our souls!! Prayers to all out there in this world, it's not easy but my Son's famous words, "It is what it is."
Music is saying what you want to convey to yourself and others.😁 it feels good.😎 you can connect.
Just lost my mamaw tonight to corona virus, she was a meth addict and had a very hard life but was a fighter. Your in a better place now and not in pain anymore. Rest in peace I love you mamaw 🙏❤

I am sorry for your loss,she left behind a beautiful soul, love yourself and God bless you!
May God's loving arms wrap you up so tight and send the Holy Spirit to ease your loss..
God Bless You.
I'm so sorry. I hope that time has helped, even a little. ❤
Still an amazingly beautiful, haunting song. 2023.
I just recently escaped an abusive, toxic, drug filled relationship and this song hits SO close to home, I cant help but cry. I had to live it in order to understand the meaning of this beautiful song ❤
Chelsea Grin Good job getting out. I got out 4 months ago. Stayed high 24/7, depressed, and blaming myself for being so judgmental on their behavior towards me. New start! We be us now and do what is good for us! We deserve that. I’m real happy for ya!🙂
I'm so sorry you went through that. :( I sincerely pray for the ultimate happiness and love for you. Sending you warmth. 💜
Good luck girl you deserve a good life.

I’m in the same situation
I've always felt a soul connection w/ this song I was given a hard life I made even harder to live. Not just in addiction but surviving what helped me to become one .I've now got 18yrs sober shocked ,proud and grateful everyday
I feel the same way about this song. About a month ago a neighbor of mine played this song loud enough I could hear it by my apt. I just stood by my garden silently, just taking this song in
Great Job. 14 years clean myself.
@@ITIsFunnyDamnIT 35 years clean and sober here...
Sometimes we have to lean into the pain. The only way out is through. We are miracles.
The song just Hits right.. brings me back to the better time of the 1990s. But we are today 31 years for me and congratulations on your 18
This song holds a special place in anyones heart who has ever been there and lived to talk about it. Stay strong. There is a life after addiction. I am living proof. 25 Years Clean. On a more humble side of things, it took me a number of tries to get there. Never stop trying !!!!
Finally clean after 30 years of abuse to opiates and benzos. I saved me. I was finally done. Glad I’m still here.

I found this song and played this for my wife , at the time she was having problems and struggling with being able to tell what was reality and what wasn't. She was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder after us being married 13 years and having two kids. So I told her that those voices she heard in her head had to be angels because she was mine Sent From Heaven !!! so I found the song begin to play it, as she began to cry !!!
So sweet 🥰 is she doing ok now?
💚💚💚
May God wrap her in his arms.
It speaks to me the same way I’m also schizoaffective
Angels and demons have always been real. Their existence is just denied these days. Angels infuse thoughts that are from God. Demons infuse thoughts from the devil. He hates God and seeks to hurt Him by turning people away from Him, convincing people He and the devil and angels and demons are not real (or worse, that God and the angels that serve Him are the bad guys, rather than Satan and the fallen angels, also called demons.) The devil tempts us to open doors to the devil through breaking the commandments and dabbling in the occult. He then can legally torment us. If she is Catholic, she can return to the Sacrament of confession and Mass and pray the rosary daily and adore Jesus and be liberated. If she is not, she is welcome to convert. Many of the Catholic Churches have become modernist which is not the fullness of truth and hence does not contain the full liberating power contained within the fullness of the Church’s teaching. God is good. He loves her. He sent His Son to be born, live and die for all people, and He also gave us a Mother in Mary- because, as children need a loving Father, so too a loving Mother… three Hail Mary’s for all who read this.

you did it. give yourself credit. the only thing that got you off was you. nothing else.
We did not all get wrecked by drugs or alcohol, but if we are all really honest, we all have issues. I can only say thank God for Grace and Mercy, of we would all be rambling wrecks. Sin you can't see is the same as sin you can see, just manifested differently.
Amen to that

Yes you are right I am going to rehab today at Williamsburg Kentucky, to get off meth and heroin, pray for me please, Dillard Jones
You are very nice
alright Aretha!
Dillard Jones Some shit you gotta let die, even unchanged or without an apology, from those who have wronged you. Put it down, walk away, forgive yourself 100%. What’s done is done. Take the learning of it and move forward with pride for surviving.
Etc
My thoughts and prayers are with every one fighting addiction in any form--pray and be strong. There are people who love you. . .don't forget that.
That's nice. :)
Some don't get nothing but grief until its to late then people act like they love them . why won't they get clean or why did they do this ... Knowing damn well what would happen when you nag and gripe pushing them to want to shut the insecurities and the voice of reason off .

Ive never posted anything yet but .. yep I see u and thanks u keep fighting to.. I’m just some dumb 51 ur old gurl who feels the same way I think 💭 take care
Been seeing you trying to get this through for awhile, always willing to listen to those who want to be heard
Idk why I'm sharing this really but, my mama dedicated this to me the day I got out of Prarie view at the age of 15 for cutting and pill popping. I come from a long line of addicts on my dads side of the family. I'm 24 now with an amazing life clean and ni self harming, when things get tough I find myself on this song. No matter how hard things are you're strong and things will get better!! ❤
My daughter went thru self harm. That was the MOST HELPLESS feeling I've ever had. I had prepared myself for boys, sneaking out, partying etc but she skipped all of that and went straight to the end game. She was 13. Her first puppy love has just dumped her that week.. She blamed me because I told her he was a good kid and she trusted me and I let her down... Her friend two doors down committed suicide on Sunday night.. Just hours after playing in our yard.. But there's more to her story.. Then she had her first cycle on Monday. She found out her friend died when it was announced at school over the PA system in a very cold manner. She went to the bathroom to be alone when her very recent ex told her "I wish it was you that died"!!!
She went to the girls bathroom, (Thank God she didn't use the single stall room..) she broke the mirror and took that broken glass and started hacking at her wrists. She meant it... No hesitation cuts... All deep but thankfully she mixed the vein a friend of hers came looking for her and found her sitting In the floor, crying and covered in blood
@@Susan-oz3eg oh my gosh Susan!!
I'm so sorry for what u are going thru & what ur baby is going thru right now! I kno exactly what she us going thru unfortunately self harm of every kind was my path for far too long.
The best advice I can give u is the pain is going to be for awhile she is going to need to cry & scream & say things ur not going to understand bc of not only the things she is going thru in life but the hurt that she must feel to hurt herself that way is so deep it doesnt just go away any time soon.
A lot of ppl r going to try & tell you how to help her.
I kno I am& i don't kno u but I kno that pain & I would try to get her the best help possible there is a place called Mercy Ministries that is a place for girls a Christ based place they help girls with cutting. Eating disorders & ect.
. . if you need to talk or want to talk more... I'm here.. im Lace by the way! 🙂God Bless I'm praying for you& your family!
Mallory Rodriguez I can relate to you because I was a cutting 10 pulse years I fell off the wagon two days life is struggle I lost my identical twin she was 39 that was the worst day of my life the one I trust you with my secrets I was molested at the age of two until I was 16 You’re a beautiful young lady and you can do this to you soon God bless you
Your a strong woman for sharing your story on UA-cam. Your awesome

Good keep it up!
I've been battling the disease of addiction for over 20yrs! Been winning this fight for 16yrs w/an occasional lapse, the last one being 16mos ago!! Did u know that addiction lives in the same part of your brain that tells u you're hungry, eat. You're thirsty, drink..?? The ONLY difference between an addict and that teenager that does a line or has a drink & can PUT IT DOWN is that they're not hardwired for the disease! It's a proven biological screw up. Please have this talk with the young ones in your lives! Don't ever try a drug! U may not be able to stop w/o a life long battle! Pray for the still suffering addict.
Not a disease though
@@jeremypruitt5880 dis·ease
/dəˈzēz/
noun
a disorder of structure or function in a human, animal, or plant, especially one that produces specific signs or symptoms or that affects a specific location and is not simply a direct result of physical injury.
This is an on-going argument. We'll simply have to agree to disagree. Happy holidays!

Congrats
Congratulations Girl, keep on keeping on. Sending love
60 days today off merhadome...I will NEVER forget the withdrawal

Hold on to that pain and anguish it has caused you. Hang on to it until you HATE it for what it has done to your life.
you got that right got off methadone back in june , clean for 7 years. great song btw
My daughter died in February 2024 of a drug overdose and I miss her so much she was only 32 and tried to stop the drugs so many times. I love you Cayla and I hope you have found some peace. I think of you every hour of every day❤
I'm struggling with alcohol use. I know it's not because I /need/ the alcohol, it's because the alcohol numbs things I don't want to work through. I hope we can all eventually find the strength to deal with our pasts. Love you all.
Love you too.
Hope you're doing okay.💞🌼

I was addicted to painkillers for years. I won't push religion on you, though that is what saved me and saves me every day. I have 13 years clean. What it boils down to is 2 things: first, you gotta want it. You gotta CRAVE SOBRIETY. you gotta be so sick of the day in day out grind: getting it, using, making sure you have enough to function, staying straight in front of people, hiding the severity of it, hiding why you're medicating, the fear of running out and the withdrawals, rinse and repeat over and over and overrrrrrrrrr......
Then you gotta be willing to admit that there is a higher power: be it God, Jehovah, Allah, Buddah, Jesus, Hulk frigging Hogan- SOMEONE OR SOMETHING that controls life. And you gotta give thanks that YOU ARE HERE. You're broken and you're hurting but dammit you are here and you can FIGHT. be thankful. Realize how many have lost this same fight and know, that you are here for a reason. Fight to live. Fight to survive. Fight for your purpose.
You matter. Fight. We need you.
Hey yeah,I did the whole Devil went down 2 Georgia .From 12years 2 43years old clean 10 years.YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU REALISE.Best bit you already on give up journey cause you ain't in denial.power 2 ya.SET YOUSELF FREE.
You are enough. God will not let you encounter anything that you can not prevail over with His help. Be Blessed.
Life is real!!! addiction is a disease I'm fighting it every day I'm not gonna lose this fight
Jack Clark Kick ass, Jack! You got this.
@@bradchampion2278 thx man means alot to here someone cheer me on thx man made my month
Yes it is a real struggle that I wish I could get that monkey off my back everyday. I have lost a child to it and the pain is so unbearable at times but I refuse to give up to let other people's judgement of me break my will bc they it's a simple but man if I could get them to walk in my shoes or live the hell alive in daily with iti would in heartbeat but nobody wants to try it. I hope nobody ever has to go down the path I have. Wish they could understand and when I ask for help help me bc it's the best I can do at that moment
One day at a time one love
Amen 🙏🙏🙏
I lost my Maureen over 11 years ago due to an overdose. RIP Baby ! God Bless all of you who are struggling with addictions, or who have gotten clean !
im so so sorry addiction almost got me i was one of the lucky ones
I lost my mama from accidentally over dosed I feel you so much I was going to play this at her service but my sister and niece held her service without me and said that I killed her they are addicts and they want to hide the truth about her addiction and they're not going to anything but to try to make it invisible to everyone else but I'm not going to hide it and they won't talk to me and my family are afraid of me cause
I'm going to speak to the truth about what they are and not talking to me anymore I don't care they have done a lot to me and it hurts but alone I am just praying for them I would never do anything bad to them I love them I will always love them all but yes addiction will bring heartache and I have been praying about it and you I feel you on that loss and my prayers are with you and your family God bless you and your family God will bless you and help you with the heart ache I know that for sure but sometimes it takes a lot of time to finally see that blessings on you and the pain it won't ever be able to make it go away but trust me I know that you will be in The healing and I promise you will be able to make sense of it all and my friend I love you and want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers
God bless you all and hope is what you hold on to and Faith
💔💔
God bless you.......one day you will once again see her... Love is all you can take with you!
I'm sorry bro. God bless you and your family 🙏😇 💓🙌🙏❣️❣️❣️😇.... Sincerely Leslie. Jesus is Lord of all. †
Perfect timing. Many thanks and blessings to all. ❤❤❤
Each time I hear this song I think of my dad, who passed away when I was just 16yrs old. He was a wonderful father, but just like all of us he had his own battles. I thank God for the last 8 years of his life when he was completely sober! He was a benger. Sober for a couple years then fall off for a few months. But I can honestly say throughout the 16yrs I had with him, he was the best dad anyone could ask for! He was loved by many and still remembered by all of the lives he touched. He was big into giving back no matter how successful he was, which btw he was very successful despite his battles! He was killed instantly when he was otw home on his Harley when a deer ran out n front of him, not even 50 yards from our house. After that I became very angry at God, went down a wrong Rd and years later ended up an addict myself (opiates). He passed 7/26/99 and my first daughter was born 7/15/03. She saved me in a since. Although it wasn't a planned pregnancy, I know God blessed me with her because she's the reason I stopped using and I couldn't have asked for a better child. It took me a while to figure out that God doesn't close one door without opening another! I miss my dad very much, but loosing my husband 3yrs ago unexpectedly, car accident, I've found myself wondering what good can come from this?! It's the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with! But I will continue to live my life for the sake of my kids!
Marinna Ulmer keep going in name of Jesus Christ
Matt Watkins thank you for your kind comment! It's so sad how the two most important men of my life were called home too early! I know our heavenly Father has a larger plan than any man or women alive could even begin to understand. Loosing my father like I did, then my husband 13yrs later. Both so suddenly unexpected. The only thing that keeps my sanity n check, are my two girls!
I truly hope no one out there may be thinking that Im not being truthful about my hardships! And I'm not searching for pity either. It's just me and my girls living one day at a time. I don't have many friends mostly because of living in a small SC town. My main goal is to just see if there's anyone else out there that's went through what my family and I have endured. Even before my dad's death there were freak accidents. My paternal grandfather is the one we were expecting, colon cancer. To those who took the time to read the short version of my life, thank you so much!
You are welcome! Sorry for all you have lost. I haven't been tho as much you have. But I do believe GOD is using you!! We all have our on demons. I no I still fighting mine. With battle of alcohol and opium's. But I will always gave GOD the Gory!! I am praying for you! And keep me in your prayers to? always in Jesus name!!!
Stay strong for those kids! Your sooo important to them. 👊👊 good luck and stay strong. If your feeling down just listen to cold play “the scientist” works every time lol catch ya later
Proud to say that I’ll celebrate 3 years clean and serene in 2020 :)

Who here talks to God? And really deeply talk to him ?
Write Him a letter every day. God loves hearing from you.
@@ellenbalcer2944I send her emails
Don't have to, it's heard as I think it. Does anyone really believe otherwise? Experienced from my pov. Known, and never lost.
I talk to Him like I would talk to anyone else. I believe many people genuinely need professional therapy, but for me, I chose to have conversations with God when I lost my husband at 38 from a heart attack. Whatever works for people, I'm all for it.
Almost daily..I’m trying to get better about not being selfish with wanting a better life. I’m more thankful for this experience and my family is wonderful. Well most of them. God bless.
Been needle free for 27 years now im grateful for the event that changed my way of life. For it is because of it that im alive.
