Chris Nabbefeld I'm Eric Trujillo and I'm going on ten months clean off heroin and I'm proud to good luck and God bless you
Congrats! In recovery from H as well, and the struggle is real! If nobodys told you lately, I am Proud of YOU!
Hope u made it
I came across this song while looking for music for our
Celebrate Recovery group. I am 27 years sober now and am praying for all of
you. YOU CAN DO IT!!! God’s blessings.
Im patrick im 14 and I'm dedicate this song to my mom who is trying to recover from drugs and has lost custody of all 5 if her children 2 of which are toddlers and so I'm hoping this will help her take the right path
Your not alone Patrick, don't give up.
praying for you Patrick to be so knowledgeable to even see this. I hope that you are taking care of yourself and can continue with your life and move forward for yourself. I hope and pray your Mom can also for all your siblings sake. Prayers to all of you.
Its just a.day at a time ..the struggle is the worst to.see or first hand go thru..but os worth it every step of the way
hey its me patrick I'm 16 now my mom has stopped drugs but something still doesn't feel right I still occasionally cry myself to sleep she isn't the same as she was before she did drugs I'm gonna see her next weekend for the first time in almost a year
Yeah its gonna be tough at first ..a recovering addict cant live like other ppl...any lil thing can trigger a relapse. .. but keeping away from...people places things. When used with or at will help
this song is beautiful, today I'm clean and sober and happy and have so much to be greatful for. When times are hard sometimes I forget that now I have a life instead of a drug
As the wife of a recovering alcoholic/ addict. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
LOVE IT! Despite losing our son to addiction I have seen recovery is possible! Fly baby boy...Aaron
Bless up
6 years Clean. Rip to those who lost their battle
After dealing with my addiction from age of 13 I’m now 44. I was married to my addiction like always said it’s a revolving door until you really want it(to be clean and sober!). Get clean relapse get clean again and do the same damm thing! INSANITY!!! I should have been dead. I died 3 times and you would think it’s over each time but this disease is tough to overcome! I lost 3 businesses but most of all my family!!! My daughter and a very strong woman that stuck with me through more than she should have. Several rehabs later I’m finally done working on myself to get back the relationship with my family! One day at a time!!! Much love to all those we have lost yo addiction and to those out there still needing the help!!!
I've never been a drug addict, never even did any drugs or smoked a joint or anything, but my now grown son was, and most recently our teen daughter. In the beginning, we thought it was weed and thought THAT was bad enough when we caught her coming home high.
Then, a few months later, found out that wasn't it. It was a shocker when we found out our sweet little angel girl was on meth, at 15 (though we didn't find out until she turned 16). How do you process THAT? Almost two years of craziness went with that. I know many have gone through it much longer, and I'm so sorry for all the grief you've had, I do know it's hard.
I'm thankful our daughter has stopped and is 7 months clean now! Praise God! They're both doing great now and I can only thank God.
If you're a parent or love an addict, please DON'T give up! They can change when they get to the point of knowing they have to. Just...don't...give up.
I can not even come close to imagining the pain of my children becoming addict's, especially to something like meth. As parent's we can only hope/pray that we are doin right by our kids. My heart goes out to you. I hope your kid's are doing better now. ❤️My mother was an alcoholic and pretty much everyone in my fam is either a drunk or drug addict. It is a terrible way to grow up.
well put, I listen to this song endlessly and im a recovering addict, don't ever give up, much love

just saw you'd replied. It's been 3 years since my initial comment.
So, update: our daughter is 21, married with a terrific 2 yr old son. He's our pride and joy!
She's been sober. That's not to say some relapses didn't occur, but nothing nearly as bad.
My son recently went to jail though. Not for drugs however, but a severe mental breakdown. While that's not illegal of course, breaking a restraining order is. So, there's that.
We are still praying for him every day.
I'm glad music is helping you. I find that playing piano/violin is a major stress buster for me. I don't have my piano anymore, but maybe someday.
Keep on doing what you're doing to stay sober and safe!!!
@@mercedesbenzalini3706 I just replied to Adam, above. So, I'll just refer you to that reply.
I was astonished my comment got replies after 3 years!! So, thank you!
You may not have children who are or were addicts, but being raised by an alcoholic is way more traumatic.
I was fortunate to be raised by Christian parents, who always were in one ministry or another. Definitely not bench warmers!
I was molested though for some time, and my folks never knew until I was in my mid-twenties. That gave me quite a diversified, if not distorted, childhood outlook on life. That set me up for Stockholm Syndrome and subsequently, marrying a user/abuser.
But I married better after that. Still with him after 28 years!
I figure we all go through our own personal fires in life, and it all equals out somewhere.
I pray you must never endure any problems with drugs/alcohol with your kids at any time. You've paid your dues in life.
God bless,
Pam
7 days sober first week in 7 years lovley song btw :) x
James Roberts Well done
James Roberts keep it up. I want cold turkey ban a year
Hang in there, you can do it. My grown son had to overcome again last year and made it. My teen daughter is 7 months clean now. I know it's hard, but you got this (said as a parent would to a son)! Amendment: I see this was posted a year ago. How are doing now? Well I hope! A one year chip I hope?!
James Roberts I hope now a year later
You are still sober, happy and healthy ❤️
James Roberts
almost 6 months sober and I have to tell myself just for today self.many years in my addiction now I will live the rest of my life fighting that good fight of staying sober I enjoy my life now I'll work the 12 steps for the rest of my life
My husband just left to go to rehab, he is battling his addictions and his demons. I hope he can be victorious in this fight. This song really spoke to me. Great words and so very true.
i keep coming back to this song man i can relate
8 years sober.
Teress fanninh 3 yrs sober
Yeresa been sober 3 yrs
💋 Thank you for this beautiful, soothing and relaxing music.
I often play it when I get a massage from my masseur.
Meanwhile, my massage therapist likes to use this
music more and more often as background music
during the treatments of her clients, who thank her
with positive remarks.❤️🙏🏻🎶
More than 4 months sober, it’s amazing what happens when you understand what drug abuse really is
addiction took everything from me and Im staying clean and its a hard thing to battle but the battle will continue, it wont keep me chasing the devil, and my prayers go out to every addict even if they deny they are.( GOD BLESS )
God bless, dear. I'm going on year 13 after decades of failure. My heart and prayers are with you!
I have been in recovery for 13 years.Lost it all my home,car,children,husband.Doors slammed in my face.Looked at like I was dirt.My new door finally opened 13 years ago and I went into recovery,life is good! Everyday above ground is a good day! Anyone out there who is sick and still suffering recovery is for you just take the 1st step!! Love yourself once again.Everything will return make it happen.
2 days sober im in so much pain physically and mentally 😩☹😓 don't think I can do it on my own. Need to get professional help I think. All I care about is my drugs. I feel so helpless man.
samantha rawson. plz get help. We have lost too many to this drug set out by satan to steal,kill and destory. My brother in law just passed of odding 2 weeks ago at 32 left behind 2 sweet lil babies and family who loved him dearly.
samantha rawson you got this its a long hard road to recovery but it leads nowhere except jail institutions and death
Don't give up! Stay strong! You can do it, if you believe you can do it. There is hope for you. x
So it's a year later ... How are you

Raven Johnson Hang in there baby. I know it's hard!! 😘😘
just dont ever get on buprenorphine aka suboxone or subutex and more. I got on it and i regret it and wish i just would have got off of the pills on my own, i did go through the opioid withdrawal and it was bad but i have a way harder time getting off of subutex than anything ive ever got off of, i even had withdrawal from lexapro cold turkey and that to me was a weird terrible feeling like so bad and scary, some people have am easier time than others for various reasons but dont replace opiods with sub because it is just another opioid. but it does make you high and it should only be used for two weeks or so max . i have been on it for over three years unfortunately because no one informed me how addictive it was. And the withdrawal lasts way longer and it is a weird opioid withdrawal. If you are one who cant and literally cant get off opiods then maybe it is okay for you if it makes you stop ODing or stealing and being violent and lawbreakimg, it will maintain you and you wouldnt steal for it for some reason unless you are just a theif at heart as it is. But only get or stay on bupe if you are in need of help badly and cannot do it yourself at all. It is a lot better than methadone too so dont do methadone especially
deep tune ppl ain't a clue until u have lived it
Love my son and wish him health happiness and love . He's more of a man than he thinks he is . His strength is more than he knows.
528 days today and I still suffer mentally and emotionally every single day...It's honestly one of the hardest things to do..When I think about how much self hatred it takes to do that to your mind and body it's terribly sad and makes me cry...I put my Family and closest friends through utter HELL..especially my Mom,daughter,and boyfriend of 13 years..I did things I would've never done if I had been in my right mind..I pray for all the addicts still sick and suffering and to the ones that let their addictions take their lives...Thank God for another sober day on this earth and may I continue to have the courage to stay on this clean road!!!!
Dear, Nichole. I've made it to 13 years after many years of relapse. May God bless you, my friend. It is possible. It's the hardest mountain I've ever climbed, but the view from the top is spectacular! Hand in there, my friend!
3/1/16 18 months clean & sober- One Day @ a Time- workin my way back to life!
100 days clean from heroin. I dedicate this song to my brother that dealt with the same thing, rest in peace brother. I'm doing this for us.
Lil Decay I really pray for you!
thank you so much love this song such a great reminder of the past.& what i'm striving for every day.iv'e been clean & sober 21 mos.music really helps. GOD BLESS YOU !!!
I am 2 years sober after 12 years of addiction. I stay sober by dedicating my life to being a better person. I love every person I meet now, after several years of hating every person in the world! #all I can do is try!
5 months, 3 days clean. great song! not just the lyrics, but the pain in the sounds...
Recovery is possible!! I was homeless for over ten years! I finally found the way out, by doing the suggested things!! Talking helps and going to aa or na meetings, pick up the phone today! Make that descision, i felt hopeless in my situation but managed to get out, thank God, the fellowship, friends and family, just over 5 years clean and sober now😆
The best Christmas gift I gave to my loved ones and to myself was getting sober from opioid addiction. The withdrawal is horrifying, and I will NEVER turn back. No instant gratification from any drug is worth the horror and misery that comes after. There is hope everybody. Please don't give up. Life is short and precious.
We do recover by helping each other in a 12 step program pray for the still suffering and see the magic work it works if you work it gb
Ive done it all. Now I'm safe. Love life. Love yourself. Find it inside. Look past the bullshit.
draigan well as u know is easier said then I've been addicted 2what I get my hands bc easy just to put that pill ur mouth
Thank you for the comment. I am very happy that the words mean so much to others like they do to me.
I would love to hear more songs like this. Awesome. I have never nor do I do drugs but this song, your voice and your soul. Just wows me
I came across this song and the understanding , comfort and support brought me to tears, wish I would have heard it years ago when I was at war with the demons of my mind. I think it is really going to impact a friend that recently chose sobriety. Thank you, absolutely beautiful!
hey there ... i lovvvve this song it is very powerful and very true... from a fellow addict in recovery to another i give you a thumbs up
Sober for 8months almost, this song brings back feelings, the beauty and the dark of drug abuse
Now i like drugs but i control them and i have my priorities such as family
Love you Juan from the past and the future
We’ve made progress but still like drugs but now I’m much better at controlling them
I am so grateful for this. Beautiful song, beautiful meaning, saved to bookmarks for hard days.
2 weeks sober today and in recovery at treatment, merry Christmas
almost 5 years now in recovery to those still struggling keep at it you will find it when you least expect it an when you do it will be incredible i never believed that life could get better but it really does
+hector henry
u can do it.
It is 2018 & i love this tune & i read the comments & hoping that all of you are doing well & loving life right now ✌
This song helps me cope with my cravings for drugs and alcohol by reminding me how far I've come being sober, how it was and how it will be climbing back up if I choose to go back, for that I thank you. It's not too late to make a choice to take a chance in changing that person we choose to reciprocate. You've inspired many people including me, a 17 year old recovering addict and alcoholic.
nb3082 How you are now? Hope you're fine!
love this song. hurts to know what has become of me. trying get my daughter BK. love her more than anything and will fight to get her BK. god knows we all make mistakes we all have sinned. now I ask God for forgiveness and pray every night for My daughter and for everything to just go BK to The way things use to be. it's gonna be a long journey but I believe I can do THIS.
Genea Reyes hope everything is better these days
love this song makes me realize all i did to my self especially to my family
Jay Pimentero hope life is better these days
Been sober for over a year now and still every day is a struggle. My story ain't over yet though. God's mercy grace and love are always there for me.
30 days sober today, how did I do it, well all I can say is my life hit rock bottom due to drugs and alcohol, I was going to end my life. Jesus saved me at that point and time, I turned myself and my will over to God, I got up and I have been trying to brush myself off and here I am. God please keep me on the path of Jesus.
Found this yesterday and I've listened to it over 10 times. I love it. Would love more of the same
This is 10000000 percent true! ✌️💜✌️💜
WORD FOR WORD !
Just wanted to add this song goes out to everyone recovering from any kind of addition or anyone wanting to recover from some kind of addition whatsoever it is or how many this song goes out to you ! ✌️💜💪
this is an amazing song...5yrs ago I was in the hospital,all my organs shut down and I ACTUALLY DIED.do to the consumption of alcohol that's what it took for me to quit.Now 5yrs after,my liver function has rejuvenated to 80%.So that is why I believe in miracles and that everyone is giving a second chance.May God bless you all,You who are going through the hell and torture that alcohol brings with it,and the ones who are walking the sober path,day by day.
59 days today and am so happy that i have made it this far. Even thou its been of the hardest things ive done i am holding in there and i am so happy that i have people who are with me the whole way.
Still loving this track, haven't listened to it since 2014 when i moved from london. people think they are alone in this struggle, but they are not. affects so many of the good people of this world. since 2014, i made it my personal mission, to help others through the journey, and onto the path of positivity. Tom
13 months sober off iv heroin and meth. Good song. ❤️
Danica Lagassé awesome job keep it up. it works I have almost 4 yrs. but u have to work at it everyday
5 years 11 months sober every day is still a struggle .prayers for every addict out there .
6 years doing Amazing this song got to me in a deep way loving someone who cant see the light and get clean fuckin hurts I will have to walk away although still wont to help him to get out the darkness and see the light! Be strong everything change can happen just believe in yourself
I'm coming up on 2 yrs in November. its still a day to day thing. life hasn't got easier since I've been clean but I have my sanity and clarity.
I'm just 2 months clean since 3/8/19 I found this song and it has saved me I'm still fighting a very dark battle but hopefully I'm strong enough to over come this addiction
such truth I'm 3 yrs sober and trying to save my adult children
60 days clean n lovin it ....my worst day sober is still better than my best high.
Ive been writing a fanfiction with addiction as a major theme recently. I have no personal experience with it, but songs like this one help me understand the mindset that a person with addiction would be in. I personally have ASD and emotions are a difficult thing for me, but songs help me quite a lot in this regard.
This is relatable and soothing. When I met my husband, he introduced me to meth and now he's back in on a parole violation. I need to keep praying so hard...
YES! One year today after eighteen years of addiction
Jake are you this song for your soul mate. Powerful words. Blessings love and light.
this song def gets me through hard days
60 Days clean today.
This song is amazing .
This song has left me speechless. Telling you I absolutely loved it would be an understatement...my head is still searching for words, but I can't find any. It was so beautiful. I am also clean and in recovery for the past 16 mos with the help of a 12 step program. It does work if you work it! Thanks
I'm going through withdrawal right now but this song spoke to my soul
I just want to tell u I LOVE THIS SONG! I LISTEN TO IT OVER AND OVER... THANK YOU!
I love this song. I am not an addict however i live with one he is addicted to cocaine, i hope one day he finds his way only god can help him now cause ive chosen to leave him.
just a little advice thats probably the worst thing you can do if you really do love this person dont leave them you have to be there for them and believe they have it in them to quit i remember when i felt like no one was there is the times i got more messed up on drugs (almost overdosed)
Justin Marquez so true. .. i wish I had people that didn't give up on me
be strong girl
Damn
is he ok now
I’ll be 4 months clean on August 27 2018 and I quit cold turkey with no help now almost 4 months later I realize I need help sim getting ready to go to rehab in a few days and right now I’m scared as hell and so emotional and this song helps me feel a little bit better
took me through ma past, left me speechless
Beautiful song . its helping from relapse.just left a program . now i face the ultimate test leaving program doors back on the streets ...
wow...you got it!!! 3 years clean and sober, love this song.
God help me
hope u ok
Know you not alone. Many of us out here...thinkin of you.
Hope everything is better these days
i hope youre here and everything is better
I will have 3 years clean on the 22nd of October. Best thing i ever did
We can recover at one step at a time. Iam in recovery myself clean and sober for 18 months. We don't kill ourselves we kill the people who love us thay suffer more than the addict. My partner is in detox at the moment so I've been on both sides and believe me I've never thought how selfish and nasty I was until now. We must do it for ourselves first then do it for the people we love. Live not easy though it alot easier than when I was using.
I love how true the lyrics are to my situation this song means so much
Thank you for your words.
Song makes you think but power of addiction is overwhelming and I hear theirs help but almost cheaper to continue the habit
This is a really touching hit home song.....Good job..............4 and a half months.......thanks for the inspiration.
Forgot I commented on this. Was browsing a history and felt I need to listen to this song again. Update 9 years clean and keepin 💪
How can I get permission to use this song on my Time to Heal Recovery Talk TV Show,, see my shows on ytube link: Time to Heal With Pam episode 1-8
Very powerful song and anyone that has issues with addiction will definitely relate to this song
Very meaningful piece. You have expressed yourself.abd your pain so well, I can bea better friend to someone I love who is struggling. Thank you.
I love this song. I am not an addict however i live with one, she is addicted to alcohol. I hope one day she finds her way, only god can help her now cause i've chosen to leave her.
That's awesome!!! And thank you for stopping by!
Recently relapsed but stipp trying to stay clean .. Two days right now I feel like im not strong enough anymore the person that helped keep me clean passed away over a year ago I miss her
Keep at it. I've got 4 years and 7 months clean and sober and I can tell you that I never want to go back to using. I cling to the desperation and fear that got me through those first few months. There is a lot of really good help out there. AA, NA, Oxford House. Everyone is different and needs different kinds of help so just figure out what kind of help you need and get it. I was homeless and penniless 5 years ago and today I have custody of my children, go to college full time, work full time, have a big two story house and just started my own company. There is hope. There is a way. Never give up. Never stop trying.
simply awesome ....hit all the right spots...
this song saved my life
Nice. I hope you are still on the road of recovery
moving away.. hopefully it works. I know if I stay I won't get sober. been at it for almost 10 years. I know I need to stop expically for my daughter. it's just so hard
this song really opens me up and made me realliz i need help cos i drink use everday i feel there is no hope for me i lost every thing
There is always hope... from the age of 14 ive been on hard drugs on and off and finally at 43 im finaly clean... you mess up just get back up keep trying and you will succeed if you want it bad enough... if I can get clean then so can you NEVER give up hope
Hope everything is better now
Good Evening Jake
Hope you are doing well
This is amazing piece of work
Do you have time to chat about a project I'm working on
My nonprofit TheDryLife is starting to work on a project to raise awaremess about drug and alcohol addiciton in young adults
3 more days and it will be another 30. Let's string some months together to never feel the pain again from alcohol.
Relapsed lastnight after 8 months of being sober and away from the blow I feel terrible and sick and so tired I wish it would just go away feel like a huge failure
its one big fucking life time struggle. When you feel its pleasure you know what u miss. Addiction is pure brain chaos
