It goes hand in hand with the pressure and depression of that kind of shit. And lets face it when she came to fame she was a kid, and people make mistakes, it's just these kind are often hard to get back from. I think a lot of folk don't realise how easy it is to fall into that life, especially if you are part of that f****d up media circus and celebrity bullshit. I think musicians are ALWAYS going to go hand in hand with drugs. . . . . . it's just life. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

undisputed 1,664 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 If your slightly weak minded/ easily swayed and in that industry it is all to easy to fall into the trap. Yes she should never have started in the first place but I'm sure she knew that, once your on that slippery slope getting off it is harder than anything. We employed a lad a friend from years ago last year who had gone down that path, he was clean now and wanted a chance, he worked with us for around 4 mnths, but we were working away and would go to the pub most nights,. He ended up having to leave because he felt too tempted if he had a drink, he knew the signs and didn't want to slip up again he felt being away from home with temptation all around was too much. He had caused his family so much heart ache over the years it's untrue, but they have rallied round for him and supported him to the hilt, his mum was over the top in her thanks when he came to work for us cause no-one with give him a chance. I'm sure we've all made wrong choices and decisions, and I'm in no way condoning the life styles of junkies or whatever, but there's some pretty heartless posts on this thread. What the hell is weak minded got to do with this...some of the most creative and artistic people in history have had a drug habit or dabbled in drugs. Apparently it helps the creative juices flow, addiction is a funny old thing it is no respecter of class, social status or gender. People being people will try or experiment with any type of drug and while the vast majority will grow out of it some dont come out the other side without some side effect and some don't make it at all. Drugs are rife in the music industry always been that way always will. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
