7. Talk about addiction (drug, booze) and your perosnal battles with both. Ever been caught (arrested) for anything realted to drug use or sale? Are you on any medication now? Do you remember to take it?


At this time I am not taking any kind of prescribed medication- this is a lost leader of a question-

A while back I was prescribed a mood stabilizer by the name of LEXAPRO for mood swings-

I was focused on it, did a lot of work, and felt great .

There was only one problem...NO LIBIDO
So I got off that crap and got prescribed a small dosage of Xanax which I only take during bouts of panic attacks- which I get seldomly.

As far as addiction is concerned, I was never the addict that would wake up in the morning and not know where I was- In fact I still struggle with calling myself an addict-

I d now admit I am a person with an addictive personality
and that does make me an addict.

I am not an alcoholic, I hate booze
I smoked a lot of weed in my life and did the occasional outdoor concert on shrooms- I was never a huge tripper or X freak. I had some horrible relaionships as well


I just loved to be a recreational user of Coke- Coke in the music and radio business is ubiquitous. It's used as currency and hence it gets a lot of people caught in a trap they never seem to get out of-

I would go months not doing it- then I'd spend a weekend locked in my house with a bunch of girls partying for three days. When the girls are Penthouse Pets , pornstars, and strippers you can see where that behavior can get addicting and destructive-

I have saved three people's lives getting them sober-
Kicking Heroin was the hardest thing I have ever seen a person go through-

After that event- I decided to go get this peron help by attending a 12 step program. I hav to be honest when I say I know it does a lot of good for a lot of people- however the meetings generally depress me more and I end up leaving feeling really sad for people I know I will see fall off the wagon and even die-

I have imbibed and I am of the belief that cocaine is a serious life ending drug- I know a lot of people reading this are laughing about this saying they just partied with me not that long ago and you know what?

That was in my past.
Now I just have to take life one day at a time and surround myself with "winners" and not "losers"
