  I dont think you ever recover from being an addict.

  If you mean in the sense that it's an aspect of self that one can never again take for granted, yes.

  You recover… most don't recover from what caused them to become an addict… most abuse to try and fix some other issue in their lives…

  It was very sad to see a person struggle with addiction like that. And he tried. But it didn’t work out so well. As far as MTV, they come up with a show called real world, and all they do is get blitz drunk, everyone screws everyone in that show. But they wouldn’t let an MJ joke from Seth Rogan And Franco because it send a bad message? WOW. So let me get this straight MTV, MJ bad, Drinking until you’re liver fails at 23 and getting STD’s are ok? Classy lol

  When I first read this, I was a bit taken aback, I’ll admit. I think it hit a nerve because of addiction struggles in my fam (and I even cleaned myself up a for a little bit there). So I understood how he could have gone back to drugs after the trauma of that plane crash.

  But I just watched an episode of that show and, man, it fu*kin’ bothers me. I mean, it’s a good anti-drug commercial but it’s patronizing, dude. I kinda came around to this post after actually viewing the product.

  Not real sure how to take that, but I appreciate you coming by and letting me know. I think the whole series is trite and overplayed, I wish they had put money into helping that young man heal himself, rather than exploiting him as a drug addict even after his death. Thank you for reading.

    Word, I normally phrase my compliments better. This post challenged my preconceived notions of the whole DJ AM situation and I like when that happens. I dig the blog, keep on keepin’ on.

  I think that sometimes through work with others you find your own pathway in life. I think Adam was an advocate for sobriety but he struggled with post traumatic stress syndrome from the plane crash and being a former addict it was a challenge to wean himself from the pain killers prescribed through that ordeal. I don’t think he’s hypocritical, I think his death shows the world, and the addicts from, “Gone to Far” that addiction is a life long struggle that doesn’t end with even 10 years of sobriety. It’s easy to slip up, but at the end of the day he helped people, showed them a way out, gave them another chance, and just because he died doesn’t mean that legacy and his initiatives should be tarnished. Shame on you!
