The last song my brother begged me to listen to was Sound of Silence, S&G, but sung by Disturbed. My brother died alone with his demons of drug addiction and depression this past April of 2021. I thought," a heavy metal band?" I listened to the πΆ music and found such solace in knowing my brother had great vision and ears in one of the best cover songs ever played by any band and it's lead singer David Draiman. It brought me to tears and I played this song at his funeral. I miss him with all my heart and only pray someone will be saved by addiction and depression because the isolation and loneliness was unbearable for him. He tried so hard to fight the battle and lost. I am now a fan of this group because of my brother's introduction. I am 68 he was 63. Miss you bro.π Sis

I grew up with a father with an addiction to Percocet and Oxycodone... it is an addiction that never ended and he eventually wound up in assisted living where they feed his addiction daily. As for me, I am taking Oxycodone now for chronic pain of my own after surgery for a compressed spinal cord in my neck. I try hard to not let myself get hooked to this drug, even with as much as I need it. Add in that I am a man that lives with bipolar and have since I was 12 years old, I deal with schizophrenia and have since I was 5 years old. It is brutal and hard... but I am a fighter and I keep my head up. Listening to David talk and reading things he has said only boosts my morale and respect for him. Chest and Chris are both major losses to the music venue and to the fans who love them. I spent a month in a Crisis unit and mental ward after I nearly committed suicide myself... and this Thanksgiving made 14 years since I was released from the mental ward and on Lamictal. It is a medicine that has been a Godsend and I still take it.

the problem is you can only do so much, they have to want to stop themselves, you can give them countless interventions, unless they are willing to take action themselves, as long you've made your views clear, at the end of the day, its up to them to fix it despite David saying "drag them kicking and screaming" my dad is an alcoholic, i've given him a fair few interventions which has brought me to tears, its a miracle he alive today but he's reached the point where he doesn't care who his drinking effects he just does what he wants
