In the final installment of this three part video blog series, Madchild from Swollen Members discusses how he came clean about his Oxycotin addiction, going through rehabilitation and the horrors of being dope sick.
fuck no for methadone. you think kicking dope is bad. fuu-uuck methadone is ten times worse. the sick doesnt hit for a few days, but when it does cancel fucking christmas. methadone is a thirty day kick, suboxone issn’t as drastic but it fools you too it sets in a few days later when you think everything is good , think again!!
i felt like I was hearing my story being told to me, weird!
peace mad, just try and keep from being bored cause the depression is the hardest thing in the long run
Hope you still doing good bro!!!respect for being honest….first major artist to talk about this type of addiction ……..album is crazy too!!i like your honesty on it!!stay up!!
Saw Madchild on Qtv with Jian on CBC. First MUCH much respect for being out there on this. I have a friend on percs and Madchild mentioned a drug that helped with the weaning, but missed the name. Anyone know that I am talking about?
yep, balance was great (i had it on cassette), but they were sample heavy those days and small enough to get away with it. these days they have to do it all themselves and just can’t do it as good. they have s ome alright tunes after balance, but balance is the only one i think that is outstanding.
Talk about not taking responsibility for your own actions. I used to be a huge Swollen Members fan around the time Balance was out. Saw them at Babylong in Ottawa countless times. They were great.
I am not a fan of Madchilds style on the new single. You’d figure after fucking up your life you’d want to come out being positive and driven to make the music that once made you proud.
“Hunger still fierce stomach still grumbles
Still pounding the pavement watch concrete crumble….”
That’s cool. I used to fuck with all that shit n more although didn’t really get addicted to pills but weed was always the regular thing. But as of earlier this month I have been drug & tobacco free for a year. Still have the occasional drinks but not as hardcore as used to. Definitely easy to get carried away when not watching it.
i know what you are going through… i batteld my addiction a long time ago…. STAY STRAIGHT…. YOU GOT THE FANS AND THE OTHER MEBERS 2 BACK YOU UP……. KICK ASS MAD CHILD… YOU ROCK!!!!!!
Yo Man. I know what your goin through..Mad Props to you bra.Keep your head up it gets easier.Lookin forward to seein ya guys in Thunder Bay.God Bless Homie!!!
