This is why I love BLACK STONE CHERRY. Chris just emptied his soul. They are the most down to earth guys. So humble. They just love to ROCK. CHERRYHEAD till I die!!
Hey Chris if you ever see this and come back here to see how far you've come since I want you to know you're an inspiration. Never beat yourself down. You're so many peoples idol and you're worth everything that wakes you up with your fans. Your heart beats and that's a gift
I'm glad you're still here brother. Ive delt with depression ,anxiety, and other issues too.Zanex didn't work for me either. Still fighting some of those ghosts . But want to say thank you to you and the guys cause Black Stone Cherry has helped me thru some difficult and dark times. Keep rocking and know that you're not alone! SEE YA 6/22/19. SCOTT
He is one of my all time favorite singers and guitar players he's absolutely one of the best of all time. I'm really glad he didn't go through with it. I've been through it too. Suicidal thoughts, depression,anxiety, stress. Life is hard but music makes it worth it all.
I'm so sorry to hear you were dealing with such a dark time. Glad you have such good friends and family to lean on. Don't ever stop talking about it and don't ever suffer in silence. Be well.
Wow, I love BSC but don't know much about their backstory, but Chris has always stood out as having an absolutely brilliant voice, and most of my rock muso mates from Scotland agree. You've got a great talent, a great band, and even us farmers in Scotland love you! (how's that for diversity!) Odd as it may seem us Scottish farmers have something in common - it's a hard life with lots of (apparently successful) people suffering from stress, anxiety, depression (and even some suicide attempts). I'm an ex musician now living on a farm (fuck me!), I know how pressure, drink and drugs can bring you down to rock bottom. But know this; no matter how bad you feel, there are lots of people who you don't even know that love you and respect you. (I'm not going to preach at anyone as I know how hard it is, but for me when I managed to kick the alcohol and substances (which was fucking hard) then life and my state of mind started to get a lot better). Take solace from the FACT that you are not worthless, rather you are admired throughout the world.
