Once Nikki because clean it became more clear why I was drawn to name her after him. Minus the drugs they are so much alike. Her father left when she was little which has affected her negatively. But she is very creative, driven, loves photography, and very much loves to inspire and help others. She hates 80's music but she has a big pride being named after him

@@stephenvolk7748 hes right...what he means is nikki knew people idolize and obsess over drug addicted musicians who can use/be a victim of drugs and even though theyre physically and emotionally suffering or even die...the fans put them up on a pedestal and its glamorous to them that these beautiful, talented people were doing something ugly...and rather than the drugs and habits making them ugly, it somehow appears to them the other way around and they see it as the musicians making the drugs/danger beautiful and mysterious. Nikki definitely did alot of coke and alcohol...and he was surrounded by these types like johnny thunders (who that entire hair metal scene worshipped because he helped start it in the NY Dolls and Heartbreakers), Robbin Crosby of Ratt who was 6'5 200lbs with a beautiful blonde mane of hair, Slash, and the guys in Hanoi Rocks...so he did heroin occasionally...usually snorting it...but he eventually dabbled with needles and overdosed probably 5 times because he wasnt shooting every day and didnt have a tolerance like a regular user...I dont think nikki ever had a severe heroin habit to where he couldnt stop without the crippling withdrawl...but after cleaning up he exaggerated how severe his addiction was because he wanted that mysterious dangerous aura that the other guys like Richards and Thunders had...plus he knew it would sell books. Do i think Nikki ever did heroin? Definitely. Probably a couple hundred times all spaced out with a few days or sometimes weeks depending on who he was around...but a real hardcore addict shoots up a couple hundred times in 2 months...not a couple hundred times between 84 and 89. Its still hard to explain, and maybe im wrong...but he comes off as a weekend warrior who wanted to act like he was deeper in than he was in order to sell books and create his own rock and roll mythology and folklore...and it worked. Im a recovering junkie and we can ususally spot our own...and when you see pics of Nikki back then and hes sleeveless, tan, and well nourished w no visible track marks or bruises, we get skeptical. You can only shoot up for a short period in non visible places before your forced to use your forearms, hands, and crook of the arm....and nikki never appeared to. He also had access to tons of $, the best rehabs, room service, saunaus and hot tubs, etc. which makes a light withdrawal or kicking it out of your life completely much easier than it is for hardcore junkies who use every day & lose all their money and resources. Hope that helped clarify it a bit...its a hard thing to explain but an even harder thing to get out of when your really in it deep...which is why Thunders died with no clean time, covered in scabs, taking methadone....its why crosby got aids and was in the hospital after hospital and got fat (his body stopped metabolising his food and damaged liver bloats you) but Richards was lucky and still shows visible scars and looks like a wind could blow him over even after being clean for years and years

People that are junkie-JUNKIES, are very dark. They gave positive days but are dark persons. They are depressive, mentally distraught...these guys never had it in them to be full-fledged junkies with the way their life turned out. They were basically just bad boys havin fun, causin a few problems. Kinda hard to explain, bit it isnt black and white...and Nikki was never a "heroine addict".

You asked why some people become addicts while others don't under the same circumstances. Ask any chemical dedendecy professional and they will tell you that genetics plays a huge role. I guarantee if you explored Nikki's family you would find an addict. From what I've heard and read, it sounds like his mother had issues with alcohol. Finally, I don't think it's really a valid question to ask why some people become addicts and others don't even though they've had the same circumstances. People are individuals, and as individuals, we all have different and unique histories. As such, we all process past experiences differently. What do I mean by this? Nikki was obviously impacted by the pain of his dysfunctional childhood and it played an enormous role in his later addiction. Take a different kid and put him in the EXACT identical situation as Nikki (same mom, dad, upbringing, situations, etc.) and the kid doesn't wind up being an addict because of the way he processed and dealt with his circumstances. Often times, addicts, especially opiate and heroin addicts, use because they are in pain emotionally. It's easier to suppress painful shit when you are numb and distracted as opposed to dealing with shit head on. This was Nikki's problem and it is a very common theme among addicts.

This is a very moving story. It gives hope to alot of addicts, that if nikki could do it, they can do it too. Nikki, like many addicts is a very talented individual and it is great to see that he has dealt with his inner demons and has actually learned how to refocus his addictive tendencies for positive things.

@Afrolunatic I pray for your freedom from drugs. I was an IV drug addict for 3 years in my late twenties. It really helps to hear and read about other people surviving their addiction. Nikki is a great example, but there are tons more. I read the NA (Narcotics Anonymous) Big Book quite a few times as I struggled to quit, and everytime I did I could say to myself "They made it, you can too". YOU can too, God Bless you and good luck! : )

That's sad Kyle even if I did find your comment hard to understand. Praying that you find your own inner peace because one of the greatest things I've discovered is contentment. Happy? No-one is always happy because it's fleeting, a moment of time. Being content within oneself is a wonderful feeling and I hope you end up in that place. Blessings from Down Under The Milky Way. 🌌🙏

Well it's only been about 11 days sober, but i'm getting there, everyday a struggle, my wife doesn't want anymore but you know what "i love myself for what i'm doing" if she understands that and stays with me, then i did the right choice in wanting her to be my wife, if she doesn't, i made a mistake but now i dont hate her God bless her for what she gave me, i intend to keep sober, thanks to all who say a prayer for people like us that only made a bad choice, that's it a bad choice

Thank you, still sober, no more drugs, but there were consecuences, my marriage is lost (at least that's what i think), but i have my kids, love them to death; everyday i'm a different person, i try to be better than yesterday,what i've learn is that "i don't let my past dictate my present or future", is hard but it's been almost two and a half months now, so, i must be doing something right, dont you think? Again thanks for your words, God bless you and you have a friend in Juarez City Mexico

My fiancé and I read the heroin diaries and love Motley Crew. My fiancé and I just had a long talk about 4 weeks ago about the diaries and 3 weeks ago he died of a heroin/ fentanyl overdose. I wish he could have thought more of what Nicky was saying.

People have come forward and said his story about getting hit with a bat was bullshit. Also, every rock star that used heroin has OD'D and died for a few minutes. Ex Slash, Ozzy, Adler Nikki just talks and writes about it constantly, so much so that his songs blend & all start feeling the same. Heroin Diaries is a great book. Now he's got a play, an audio version and a rewrite with pictures. That is so fucking cool, however, I have the original and won't be spending another $40 for a picture book with drawings in it. Never meet your hero's because they disappoint you. I met Sixx on the TIGH book tour. He was just a boring celeb and the 10 hour wait was horrendous and not worth it at all. I'm 41 years old and I've loved Crüe since I was 8 years old. What changed? Nikki posted on Facebook that he was touring in Sweden. The gig where he was playing wanted to charge the bands to meet their fans... (for some fucked up reason) anyway this pissed him off and he stated on FB that he wouldn't pay a dime to meet his own fans. Well me and a bunch of people who probably also waited 10 hours in line to meet his ass went crazy & told him what we thought of him and his arrogant post. Well he must have realized he fucked up cuz moments later he deleted it. Ever since I've felt differently about him and I refuse to meet my heroes. You see... they are human just like the rest of us and unfortunately when they let down their fans.... I don't think they understand what they mean to us. Choose worthy heroes kids!
