My father passed away last night at the young age of 62. An addict, a business man and not a good father. Whilst clearing his things from his bedside, this was the last song he listened to on his iPad. It saddens me deeply to think of how he felt. All the lies and deceit. No honesty. He was not meant for this planet. Rest in Peace pop

[@freebirdrox7330]

I'm a 64 yr old mom/grandma. I've always always loved Neil Young and thus tune; little did I know when I was young what this song would really mean to me when I became this age. Now I weep, I've lost a son to it and now my daughter is out there somewhere on the streets with the fentinyl.

[@az-yq3rk]

💐put a silver cord from you to your daughter. Tell her it's time now to come home. Get on your knees together and pray to the Holy Spirit to release the hold of drugs on your daughter. Pray the Lords Prayer out loud together: Our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. Sometimes I feel too upset and weary to read my Bible, but hugging it helps 🌻

[@bigtim1575]

Go find her before it’s too late! There is still time. Dont fail her you’ll never forgive yourself.

[@michaelsevens]

Lifting you up in prayer and God can heal. I'm still here because people did not give up on praying for me. Pray that God would put roadblocks in their way. To get their attention in the way God knows how to get there attention. And that they would become so sick and tired of being sick and tired. God never gave up on me even though I gave up on him. God says he will never leave us nor forsake us and he held true to that even though I forsook him. I'm forever grateful for his son Jesus Christ. And I know once people give their lives to Jesus their lives are that much better. Doesn't mean life gets a whole lot better but it makes life a whole lot easier. It makes us stronger as we overcome these things. Plus we can be a help to others. Jesus the way the life and the truth. Seek Jesus will he still can be found. Once you accept Jesus as your lord and savior you will never ever regret it. Life is short and temporary when we die we just don't go into the grave. We either go to heaven or hell. Jesus is the way into heaven. He paid the highest price for us. Do you want to know more go to the site. It's short it's simple it's quick say the prayer at the end your life will never be the same and it'll be so much better. www.peacewithgod.net

[@nicholasadams2374]

This song hits me so hard. Listening to it with my old man when I was just a kid. Not knowing years later, how much damage I would do. The needle is an insidious force I can’t describe. Somehow, I haven’t used dope in over 10 years. Nearly as much time as I was strung out. Neil Young is my hero. The final line, “but every junkie’s like a setting sun.” Instant tears, every time.

[@kimberlykidd3755]

Glad you're clean!!

[@kimberlykidd3755]

@Kevin Michael hang and there and don't give up. It is a daily battle, sometimes even minute by minute. Stay away from the people places and things when you were using, and always remember about your playmates and playgrounds.

[@kimberlykidd3755]

@Kevin Michael also I just had cervical spine fusion with screws, rods and a titanium plate in the base of my skull to decompress my spinal cord so that I won't end up a quadriplegic. I've been diligent about the pain meds, because there's no way that I could have gotten through this without pain meds. I've been diligent about it though, even keeping track of what time I take each dose. I can't wait until I can get off of them again and go right back to my Suboxone. Like my status, I have a high tolerance for her medication and a low tolerance for pain. The neurosurgeon said this is one of the most painful surgeries that he does. Now I have to have my lower back done for a pinched nerve, but that will probably be a cakewalk compared to this.

[@randallsmith7885]

Stay strong!

[@Francis-ug6bj]

That line is awesome and very touching..

[@ley98]

One of the best songs written about addiction

[@davesigmon8144]

A haunting song that's based on what Neil has witnessed in the rock lives around him, particularly Crazy Horse guitarist Danny Whitten. Neil has never been more emotionally intuitive. And he accomplishes this in just two minutes with his voice, acoustic guitar and a great, simple tune.

[@MichaelTobin-m1d]

Great Haunting tune.....since 11.11.2021....amazing I survived 19 OD's....& NVR Shot...compunction with my nose

[@jg2716]

I have lost many, but have never lost myself....yet

[@jackiehill6357]

This short song encompasses my whole life. I'm clean now, on methadone and for me, that's clean. Some may argue I'm not clean and technically they're right because I am addicted still. BUT I'm not the fiend I used to be. I thank God that I got caught up again several years ago and basically had no other choice than to get back on methadone. I used to hear people say things like that "I thank God" stuff and I didn't get it. I get it now though. I really GET it. We only get one life. It's not all about me anymore. I have a 18 y/o daughter that I'd love to have back in my life someday but she's not coming back if I'm getting high. I lost custody when she was 3 which fueled my addiction even more but I deserved to lose custody bc the dope most definitely came before her or anything/anybody else. My parents are getting older. 30 years blew by and here I am with a clear head and conscience now and realizing that I may only have another 15-20 years with them, if I'm blessed to have them around that long. None of this mattered at all when I was using. I didn't talk to or see any of them for years. So sad. I regret wasting all those decades. So I thank God my back was up against the wall again and the only choice I really had was to get back on the clinic. I'm rambling because this song has always brought up some serious feelings in me. The 1st time I heard it, I was 16 and had just gotten into heroin and the girl I was hanging with, her older brother used to play this song. He was also the one who'd get it for us til we figured it out ourselves. So flash forward, I'm 44 years old and this song just brings up so many feelings. If you read this far, thanks for bearing with my rambling. Hah. I wish all of you peace ✌ and ❤. Edit: 10/1/2024...my mom passed away on 11/30/23 from a glioblastoma (brain tumor). I had a nagging feeling that would not go away that I needed to stay clean and repair my relationships with my parents as I didn't know how much longer I would have with them. That feeling just would not go away. Proof of it in my original comment. I believe everything happens for a reason. I was able to be at my mom's side for six weeks as she became incapacitated by the tumor. I was able to be there for my brother. I was able to repair my relationship with her and I had an amazing two and a half years with my mom and we made lots of memories, my favorite one being when she took me to a Pink Floyd tribute show, just bc she knew they are my favorite band. Anyway, rambling again but seriously, everything happens for a reason. I'm still clean and I got clean at the time that I did for a reason. It was to be there for my mom. I miss her SO MUCH. 💜

[@robbiemonsebroten6738]

Jackie, you should be proud of the leaps you've made. I'm only 4 months clean and on the sub program. In these 4 months I have my 19 year old back in my life, also my mother who's 70. A lot of years wasted that we can't get back. All we can do is be selfless and not selfish anymore and cherish each minute we have with our loved ones God bless you and be well:-)

[@kimberlykidd3755]

Don't worry about what other people say about being clean, you have to do what you have to do to be able to live and function in life. I'm right there with you, I've been on Suboxone for ten years, and I am 59 years old. I will stay on this low dose until the day that I die if I'm allowed to, because for the first time in my life I'm able to pay my bills on time, have a little bit of what I want, and even save some money. Nobody has the right to judge us for doing what we have to do to stay alive and function.

[@theboldandthebeautiful3729]

If it helps you stay clean and make it another day, then I think it's a blessing. Its no different than taking medicine for mental health issues. Keep going and stay clean.

[@lynpagan1720]

when your using sadly the only thing you think of is where your next hit is coming from. It's not even to get off you head, it's just to function. Sad, bad days, wasted years.

[@jackiehill6357]

@@robbiemonsebroten6738 so crazy that I'm back at this comment because someone commented on my original comment. My mom passed away from a brain tumor on 11/30/23. I'm not sure of the exact date I wrote that original comment but it's crazy bc I really believe I got clean at that time for a reason. So that I could be there for my mom in the last six weeks of her life as she became completely incapacitated by the brain tumor. And prior to the tumor, I was able to repair my relationship with her and we had an amazing 2 and a half years and made lots of memories. I miss her so much. I truly believe EVERYTHING happens for a reason. And that nagging feeling about my parents getting older was a major reason behind me getting and staying clean. And what ended up happening is proof to me that everything happens for a reason. 💜

[@thewildlife5204]

I’ve been addicted to opiates and booze, any kind of downer, on and off for 20 years. It’s all a slow road to death. I’ve kept away from alcohol for 12 years now.. But as any addict knows, once an addict, always an addict. It’s a daily battle with the grim reaper continually moving closer on the chess board. Love and gratitude are the anchors that hold you from the turbulent sea right outside your little bay of temporary sobriety. To those who make it more than a few years free from everything after years of addiction - I commend you. It’s more than I’ve been able to do.

Please be positive and reprogram your brain to think differently. It definitely can be done and your Divine Team are ready to help. Ask your spirit guide for direction on your new journey.

Daily IV user here, fent has destroyed my life repeatedly, at the moment I feel like I'm in control, but in reality. I know control is something Ill never possess again. I've watched it kill my closest friend just last christmas, breaks my mfn heart. Poor kid, at least i know he's not struggling with that demon anymore. Lord watch over me on my journey, and anyone else going through similar
