My son is an addict and the hardest thing I’ve ever heard him say to me is that I deserved a better son. We fight this fight together. I’ll never give up on him

[@teds4063]

please don't give up. The world is falling apart as I write this.

[@lisacarlsen6172]

My daughter just celebrated 2 yrs of Sobriety. Had I listened to everyone saying "let her fall" " cut her off " I truly don't believe she'd be where she is now . Don't give up Momma ❤️

[@melissaklinge9811]

Plz dont. I HATE every addiction psychiatrist/counselor out there that spewed the "kick em out and dont deal with them anymore treatment plan" to parents. I'm clean now but have no family bc they decided to do just that when i needed them the most. Blood should ALWAYS be so much stronger than addiction.. anything else is just a copout for weak parenting. Stay strong!

[@normanjunge4284]

I told my mom the same thing she fought for me when I gave up will never be able to repay her for that

[@44Guevarra]

I'm sure they really do care about you and your well-being. please be cautious about those kinds of substance, as they don't make the problems go away -maybe temporarily, but it might only make your problems worse. I suggest you talk to someone you trust about this and or go to therapy. There is a lot of help you can reach out to, don't be scared to talk to someone and get help. Please take care of yourself, physically and mentally.

[@brocowsci]

That's fatastic. I'm trying to help my partner quit, but she just shuts me off, especially after I quit.. really hurts

[@DJKronikCam710]

Darrin Pro reading that legit made me cry, its such a difficult struggle especially when you and your spouse are both fighting the same demon, so many relationships lost BC of addiction one person wanted to get clean and the other didn't, or they didn't know and I'd leave her to protect her, but I was lucky enough for "the one that got away" to come back after 2 years and that day was the last day I've touched anything other than weed and having a drink from time to time. But we have a beautiful 2 yr old girl and just had our 1 year wedding anniversary yesterday. So glad to know that there's other people that get away from shit and moved on to have a better life, BC I'm from a place where everyone eventually ends up dead due to addiction

We're 12 years clean with healthy happy kids. There's always life after rock bottom!

Bradley Carroll Your comment is awesome. Very well said! I totally agree with you, Hinder created a masterpiece. I love this song so much! And the struggle in it hits so close to home for me, luckily he didn’t die in my reality, but the rest fits perfectly. And I just love it so much. It shows the reality of drugs and what can always happen even if the person doesn’t mean for it to. Most all overdoses are an absolute complete accident. Moment of silence to all the still suffering addicts and their families and to those who’ve lost their lives to it.

[@christopherhuerta1178]

This song hits me so close to my heart. I’ve been used for all sort of things. Money, car rides, protection, etc… My depression and anxiety over the years have gotten worse. I’ve never felt more alone than now. Been struggling with it back and forth for the last 5 years. Almost ended it all back in 2017. I’ve learned I have to keep going. It’s so hard at times. I’m emotionally, spiritually and mentally exhausted… To anyone who’s struggling with depression, loss, addiction: I love you for trying. That’s all we can do. Try to be better. I’m trying to love myself and deal with my own mental problems. I haven’t loved myself in so long, I forgot who the person I once loved was like. So please, keep trying. Keep fighting. All of these hardships… I know someday it’ll be worth all of the pain we have in our mind, body and soul. Found this song in 2019. ❤️ Edit: Thank you all so much for your kind words. I continue to try and work on myself. It’s painful going through this, but thanks to my therapist, he and I have been working on building my self worth back up. And how to overcome painful struggles or how to deal when my mind becomes overwhelmed to the point that my depression and anxiety gets too built up. I have a tendency to overthink my situations, but he’s been teaching me ways to help out my mind at ease without resorting to alcohol for my problems to go away. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to have a therapist, and I promise you that YOU do matter. Keep trying, everyday when life feels like you can’t get up. Keep trying, to be a better you than you were yesterday. As long as you try, you’ll always be cherished as well as your mind and body will love it as well. Love y’all💜

Wow, reading some of the comments hits me so damn close...After 8 times in rehab and several different drugs of choice, I finally got it right. I have 11 years clean & sober. I am so grateful that I didn't lose my family's love & support~ No matter what, don't give up. We're all so unique, important and have a life to live. Addiction still tries to pull me back under and some days it's a bitch. I have to do anything possible to make sure I say F**k that and get myself together. I do have an awesome sponsor and do meetings, a lot! If I didn't, I know how simple it'd be for ME to fall. After editing this post in 2017, I am still clean & sober for over 12 years..music definitely helps bring me up or sometimes it takes me down to dark places. I've learned to avoid some music, many people,places & things..We all have to do what's best for us and make it through our life, try to find happiness and peace~ Keeping everyone that's still fighting addiction in my thoughts~

I wish it was easy but it wasn't. I had to face a lot of demons and work the steps but after my 90 meetings in 90 days, I was feeling amazing and had an amazing sponsor that helped me a lot, she still does. I only hope that any active addict will find the beauty in living life clean & sober.

Meth is a hell of a drug. It's ruined part of my family and caused my aunt to kill herself. If someone you know is going through a tough time or doing some hardcore shit, be there for them. It may be hard but anything can help someone, I promise.

[@AVKryshtal]

Being there for them doesn't always work. Most of the time the addict just takes advantage of the hospitality/compassion/love he or she is given.

The opposite of addiction is connection. So sorry about your aunt.

[@americanpatriot6949]

everyone has some k8nd of vice or vices. it doesnt matter if its alcohol meth or food. too much of anything can destroy a life and break a family into pieces. llove is the ultimate addiction healer.

[@AVKryshtal]

American Patriot Sometimes the addict needs a good kick of tough love. My parents keep showing "love" to my brothers and they never change. My sister's mother-in-law kicked my sister's husband out of the house and he was forced to either go to rehab or be homeless. He actually thanked his mother for doing that. My brothers on the other hand just keep taking advantage of my parents because of you know, love. (Usually people don't threaten and steal for food. Over-eating usually only affects the over-eater.)

[@aidanmccall6337]

This song really hits hard since my partner battled a drug addiction which then led to an alcohol addiction from withdrawing from the drugs. It was such a tough time getting through it, her family walked away from her and my family told to do the same, she's now sober and we have a daughter together. Even through the hardest of things sometimes all one person needs is for someone to not give up on them.

[@survivingonstadia4007]

Don't hate her family for that. It takes a lot to be able to go through the things addicts can put a family through without even intending too. In the addicts head that's all they can think and do is that drug. The family can't see it that way and you can't expect them too. Just fix the things that can be fixed and let time heal the rest. They still love her. Just some people haven't been through enough to be that low in life. The strongest warriors are the one that stopped the cycle and made a life from it.

[@anthonypeters44]

That is awesome you never gave up on her and that says you are made for each other never give up life gets better when you decide to get better.

[@MrMackAtack]

God bless yall 1st of. 2nd I can relate and I'm curious how her family life is like now? Sorry to intrude! But now that she is not using or drinking is her family back In her life did she forgive them and they forgive her? I just can get my thoughts together how my family (other then a few good ones) can just give up and I hear of it happening alot! So again congrats on sobriety and I'm just asking for myself as I'm sober again but haven't even told my family that should care that I am sober again but this time I'm 100% committed to staying sober! And I just feel like it's a trigger waiting for me to pull aww family! Lol and Anyone reading this if you have someone you care for that is stuck in addiction don't give up on that person seriously! Each situation is different but I do know turning your back/giving up is not gonna help! And its just gonna make it harder for you to deal with when your at that person funeral due to there overdose! Don't enable them likevjust giving them money but don't leave on there own either the world is cold hard and hateful enough we all need a shoulder to lean on and cry on! 💪✌

[@julesston2628]

You couldn't be anymore right than this. But so many people are too lazy and disconcerning to be there for the one they say???? They love. Unconditional love and love that is not only said but shown is what we all strive for. Our people should love us more when we're battling auction or depression etc. In my opinion

[@ldolphin34]

I have no addictions, and I've never lived a song like this. And yet, this song just grabs me. In my opinion, Hinder squandered a huge opportunity to be the face of rock and roll for a decade, because they didn't put their ego away and just let this kind of rock and roll flow.

[@candicesmothers4575]

Agreed!

[@hollypierce3076]

Well be thankful that you never experienced addiction, I have and I've lost everything ten times over. I lost family,friends & my self confidence. It is like living in hell 99.999%of the time with. 1% of numbness. I've been sober now for 6 years, I'll never do that to my family or myself ever again. And even being sober,I still have to watch very dear loved ones kill themselves a little bit each time they use, until they overdose and leave the world behind. But I digress, this song definitely reminds me of why I don't want to re-live that nightmare.

If a blind man comes and starts shouting that " There is no sun you idiots" Doesn't mean that the one who can see say that the sun doesn't exist. The fact is always gonna be true no matter if you don't believe it. Brother, Jesus loves you. So deep that you would start rejoicing right now if you try to understand. God bless you! I pray that your eyes would lose the scales of off it. In Jesus Name Amen. :) God will surely bless you.

[@Irongrim]

I'm 19 and when I was only 7, my mother divorced with my father due to him becoming an alcoholic. And I soon always heard this song on my mother’s radio because she was so heart broken over the divorce, it took up to 2 years for her to move on. She always had me at her side and if there’s anything I remember, it’s when she said that I give her hope. I never knew what the meaning of this song was until I wanted to go on a trip down memory lane and searched for it. I found it and I now know what she was feeling those days. I will admit I've never been in a relationship but it hits me hard thinking about my parents and this song.

As one of those guys, who’s still here for now. It’ll always be inevitable, it always has been since the first real thought. Don’t feel bad you couldn’t be there, it would’ve only been a bandaid. Every person I know who’s done it always had it in them. It’s just a matter of when the brain chemistry finally gives way. I’ve known since I was a little boy that one day I’d leave by my own hands. As selfish as we know it is, if we could stop it, I promise we would.

[@lilsodre1662]

I was an addict for 8 years. It all began when my sister died. It's always easy enough to find the wrong people, the wrong reasons, the wrong motivation... I almost died a couple times, had to face the sadness in my parents eyes, and most of all, myself in the mirror. Call it a miracle, but most of the people I used to do heavy drugs with also got treatment, and got clean. There is always hope. And, even though sometimes life seems meaningless, make sobriety your one goal in life. I've been clean for 7 years, now. The last time I took a sleeping pill was in 2018 after a relationship break, which I did not allow to ruin my 12-step program, simply because NOTHING and NO ONE has the authority to determine how we live our lives. Learn to love your own company, to understand nobody is perfect and that it's ok to be who you are, and that drugs are NOT the answer. I put on some coffee, light a cigarette and cheer the small victory of another day without alcohol, without opioids, without pills. Like Charles Dickens said: "God bless us, everyone."

Please always remember addiction is not just an easy choice. They don't choose the drug over you. It's deeper than that. It's a sickness that consumes them. They stopped loving themselves not you, don't take it personally. And to those still struggling.....sending you lots of love. I truly hope you find yourself again. God bless your soul.

Addiction mixed with other major mental illnesses and of course the non stop suicidal thoughts for 43 years and two epic failed attempts has me fighting a war within myself every single day of my life and scary enough i always and forever will. i know how this side feels and we are scared too death and completely lost, but i know our loved ones suffer the most.
