    Man this made me tear up a bit. Especially when he talked about those amazing musicians that fell to drugs. I've read all his books and this man has taught me more about life then school could ever teach me...

    Nikki is one of the lucky ones, so am I. Although he may have had the money to use as much as he wanted to he still experienced what every junkie does, total despair and hate for the drug that once made you feel on top of the world. I'm 53 and used smack for 17 years except I wasn't in a million dollar mansion while I was using, I was freezing behind a bar or in an empty house. I was lucky enough to have been able to keep a small portion of my mind and it led me to get clean with the help of my good friends. I have not touched a drug or a drink in over 10 years now. If you can start, you can stop. you just have to really want to and realize that lying to yourself is going to kill you.

      Proud of you Farley Boy and proud of you too Randy Brady. I know of someone I love dearly shooting heroin. He started with pills then smoking heroin now shooting. He's in and out jail for petty crimes to support his addiction. We are devastated where he's heading. We decided not to keep enabling him,atealing from us,lying to us,we're ready to shun him out. He's been through hell and back but continues to do drugs. Hard to believe four years ago he was a good guy,a smart college grad with a great future,and handsome as hell. wtf does one do? I am so happy to know from you guys there's hope.

      He is proud because he thinks it makes him look cool. He’s a liar & a narcissist, & his claims of heroin addiction are greatly exaggerated. MC & Sixx were c.0ke fiends. He may have dabbled in heroin, but no way he was a major smack user who “just decided to stop” like he claims. NO WAY.

  • @maryjayne2704

    I read the book and I can relate to Nikki's paranoid psychotic behavior I went through it myself when doing drug. I had to be hospitalized because of a paranoid drug induced psychosis. When you do massive amounts to drugs it catches up to you. I've been clean for 20 years. Before I was 21 I saw did more crazy shit then most people in 10 lifetimes. Every day I wake up thankful I'm not dead or in prison.

    Nikki Sixx's lyrics are a key element to the Crue, and he penned almost all of them. What made Motley different from so many of the fake hair bands that followed them is that they didn't just write about booze, cars and chicks. For every song like "Girls, Girls, Girls," there's a song like "Wild Side" (which has lyrics that even Dylan would be proud of). For every song like "Ten Seconds To Love," there's "Primal Scream." For every tune like "Rattlesnake Shake," there's a song like "Danger." They wrote about serious subjects in their songs, along with party lyrics. The lyrics came from the street, and the street isn't just booze, cars and chicks.

    I would hate to think that someone would create a fictional account of drug addiction to stay relevant. I never looked for a pen when I was sick. I look for dope to get me well. And spent most of my time working to stay well. I’ve been around addict my whole life. Nikki was my rockstar hero. Now I see a business man. So I have doubts which has hurt my trust. But some money was donated to covenant house. Which I lived in the early to mid-80s behind port Authority in nyc where I’m from. I wish him luck and suggest.

    Addiction is the depths of hell. Getting clean is hell. Does not have to be heroin, simply someone's drug of choice. I think of addiction as possession of one's soul. Living in an indescribable void of absolutely nothingness. Not sure u can quite understand it until you've experienced it. Pray u never go there.

    He’s been selling the same fictitious story for 10 years. The guy is a photographer and takes pictures of everything. Why hasn’t he never shown the original diaries? Not one picture? They don’t exist. He never got beat back to life with a baseball bat either. That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. When you shoot heroin you pass out... you don’t write in diaries. He didn’t even play his bass live on stage... he used pro tools which pissed me off. That’s not what I paid cash for. Almost every rock star on the planet had o’ded on drugs at one point at another... the difference they don’t try to sell the same book for 10 years.

    "1\4 of one of the most successful rock groups of all time” please...this guy is
    IS MC. Love for Mick...but w\o Nikki, all of them would have gone nowhere and no matter who he found to play those roles, would have gone somewhere- truth

      The guys that were in that band we're all important in their roles. Mick was older but Tommy and Vince would have still made it if they never met Nikki. Vince was going to be popular front man no matter what and Tommy was a talented drummer. Sixx was a good song writer but he needed those guys to perform his songs.

    Then how do you think he wrote songs for Girls Girls Girls? If YOU can't believe he wrote these diaries, for 30 minutes a day at least, he wouldn't have written any songs. Use your head too next time
    Thanks
