Johnny Cash sings "The Junkie's Prayer"

NEW (Jan 2021)
Because of BlaBlaBla, I haven't been able to access this account's admin for years. Now that I suddenly can again, I want to thank everybody for staying their best selves in the comments section. You folks give me what little hope I have. BTW, off speed for 35 years, dry for 25. Both times solo flights; nobody around to help. I'm living proof that it can be done.
(Nov 2017): This clip has become a kind of an online gathering place/support community for my fellow recovering-everythings, and those who want to recover but aren’t quite there yet. I see people reach out, but YT makes it very difficult for direct connections to be made. If you make a connection in the comments, and I receive a request from both parties at [e-mail] , I’ll be happy to put you in touch with each other. We're all in this together, even as we work on our own progress.
Cash pulls no punches with this song, written by Lew Dewitt of the Statler Brothers, about a subject Cash was all too familiar with himself--and the performance is unflinching and straight from the heart. From January 6, 1971. Thanks to gf530 for getting me the correct intel on this tune, and to Michael Lamont for suggesting edits in my remarks about the clip.

[@hasiajackson-un7zb]

Remember the Creator loves you deeply, even though our fellow man may kill, lie, steal and cheat. You are a valuable person. Every moment in life is precious, treat it like it's your last drop of water. Life changes rapidly every second and hurls rocks at you, but you will be able to get back up, even if you couldn't dodge them. Mankind is both a beautiful, fragile, yet treacherous creation. Mankind is beautiful because everyday someone is born, someone is enjoying life, but we close our hearts to eachother, we can lust after many things. But if we clear our blocked path, blocked by greed, we will be able to slowly and painstakingly, yet amazingly walk anywhere we please. If one has had a hard life, it isn't over, in this life, or the next, the Creator will reward you. Because of this never give up on your dream, dreams are memories that are yet to be remembered. God bless you, and I will keep you in my prayers! 🙏

My sentiments exactly - cryin right now reading through more of them. I have never been addicted to narcotics, but I have my own struggles, and they are just as real. I watched firsthand while my precious baby boy [36 now] fought to break free of Meth addiction. I may as well have been addicted to it as I died every time I had to see him slip and detox and try again over and over. His pain was felt deeply in this mama's heart. That demon gets inside the brain and literally claws and rips and screams inside until you essentially have no choice but to pick up and use again. I understand. I just wish others did too. I get so sick of hearing those who say so many negative, unhelpful, and really, destructive things to the addict who really just longs to be free! God bless every single individual who has to fight these demons [drugs or otherwise] and give you [us] strength to move forward another hour, another day, until freedom is secured!

Is there a pain you want to cover? What could bring you joy or make you happy besides getting high? Have you done some sports in the past?

As an alcoholic who spends too much of his free time pounding down beers, I definitely relate to this song.

If you see someone struggling from addiction please reach out. It's the worst war in which we fight with. It's worse than any nuclear wars you hear abt on the news. Find faith in God and pray everyday for strength. NEVER GIVE UP even if you relapse.. drug addiction has no cure no matter how many years clean you always risk that one chance of falling into temptation. I never thought I'd touch a needle again after years of sobriety and I had one moment of bad judgement bc I was drunk and I'm back at Rock bottom. But God forgives all sin if you repent. Trust in God and always believe in yourself. To all recovering addicts- NEVER GIVE UP NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU RELAPSE YOU ARE NOT A PIECE OF SHIT.

Thank you for this song for I’ve felt the horror that comes after the thrill. I served two tours of duty in combat when I was in the Marine Core back in 03 when the shit had just hit the fan. I was a 50 caliber machine gunner on the front gun truck of Regimental combat team 7 along with RCT 5 and I did not keep count of nothing for there were many. I just followed orders and God brought me back home to my wife and little girl. When I returned from combat the Dr put me on Xanax’s and Valium’s both many of them and I stayed on them form that point in my life and also for the next 16 years. I would take them to try and just drown out the pain and sorrow I felt but over the years my tolerance got to be so much and I couldn’t ever get enough of them. After my 3rd overdose and I woke up 14 days later and came off the ventilator and was re trained how to walk again. Johnny the Lord God Almighty got ahold of me and he’s not let go of me till this day at this moment and I was blind but now I see and Gods power can help anyone overcome any drug or any hold that satan has on a man, even a die hard Marine like myself. Glory to God Almighty our creator and master. One more thing Johnny, the devil is very powerful and sneaky but he’s just a big ol pussy!!! Get behind me satan!!!! I no longer belong to you.
