Eminem Speaks On Drug Problems In The New Vibe
” ‘My doctor told me those mysterious new pills were methadone, which is used to wean heroin addicts off dope. Had I known it was methadone, I probably wouldn’t have taken it. But as bad as I was back then, I can’t even say 100 percent for sure. My doctor told me the amount of methadone I’d taken was equivalent to shooting up four bags of heroin. Even when they told me I almost died, it didn’t click.’ After detoxing, Eminem suffered a knee injury that required surgery, but because of his recent drug abuse, he was not prescribed painkillers. He recalls, ‘I started looking around my house to see if I had a stash box of Vicodin…I’m ransacking my house, finally find something in the basement, in a little napkin, seven and a half Vicodin—the big extra strength ones—and a few Valium.’ The rapper soon relapsed for the second time and finally admitted to himself he was an addict. ‘It never once hit me that drug addiction runs in my family. Now that I understand that I’m an addict, I definitely have compassion for my mother. I get it.’ ”

Drug abuse is a serious issue and its good to see Eminem over come it and be man enough to let the public know about his struggle.

isn’t this the same faggot who rapped about killing and raping his own moms? i have no compassion for him; not matter how foul his mom mightve been, she raised him by himself i’m sure she tried her best to raise his punk-ass. But how u gonna make millions of dollars living in a mansion while your moms is cracked-out living in homeless shelters and making videos on youtube looking like a aids patient? thats disgusting !!!! if you understand what your moms is going thru, step up like a fucking man and quit letting her die slow.

yo yo yo
we as fans like to think we know the relationship between him and his mom but we dont
we werent there when the shit was happening
people make mistakes its human
its how we know he is reallllllllllllll
that fact that he is man enough to admitt it now shows his growth
but what i want to know is why he aint make this in to a song
like his single is hard
but this would have been classic
and he really need to go back to the normal voice

@ 6 and 7.
You are retarded, you dont have withdrawls to marijuana but you can very much so get addicted to it. you can get addicted to any drug. Many many many people are sitting in rehabs right now because of marijuana, its not for everybody. tell them its not addicting. theres a diffrence between addiction and dependence and you obv dont know what you talking about. I smoke weed occasionally, used to smoke it everyday, its not a problem for me. for me it was the pain killers, still fighting that shit. but point is, marijuana can be a problem for some people, everyones diffrent. I know ppl who smoke as soon as they wake up then every 2 hours after that, every single day and need to smoke to get through the day. they dont do anything else but sit there and smoke weed, flunked out of college cuz rather then study they blazed up. Thats a problem with marijuana right there. Think before you speak and if you do speak dont call people pussys when you dont know what the fuck your talking about.

May 5th, 2009 at 12:25 am

Good for em….
and you can be addicted to ANYTHING, sillies
May 5th, 2009 at 2:30 am
lol @ everyone sayin u cant be addicted to weed but have to smoke it 5 times or more a day…i think they call that denial lol….and stopping for a month for a purpose and then jumping right back into the same regimen doesnt help ur case either. ur still addicted lol
Yo straight up..the more he talks, the more im starting to understand this album, it gives it more of a purpose…but i still think he be taking it too far wit the killin and suicide shit..but who else can do it like Em? lol Good job Em for coming to an understanding of ur moms, HUGE step from what u used to say about her lol
May 5th, 2009 at 4:01 am
yo u can’t be addicted to weed. this whole beefin with his mom thing is fuckin lame. who he gonna battle next his babysitter? the kid in elementary school who didn’t pick him for kickball? i’ve never been an eminem fan. also, i will cosign the comment bout autotune not bein real hip hop. i did like weezy’s flow til that autotune shit, now he kinda weak and bitchified. now back to eminem. he always whining about something, usually involving his mom or his wife or ex-wife. the whole rap beef thing is stupid tho. if it’s with ur mom, wife, or other rapper, its all bullshit and gay. if u got a problem wit someone do something, naw mean? eminem don’t need rehab if the equivalent to 4 bags of heroin would kill him. as someone who sold and used heroin daily for 4 years, 4 bags isn’t really that much. people don’t need mthadone, it’s just for people who r pussies and can’t deal with the withdrawal. if u did the shit, deal with the consequences. i did at least 10 bags daily for 4 years and didn’t need methadone, rehab, or detox. i did some drug and alcohol counseling the court forced me to take and i been off smack for a year. all these famous people r talkin bout bein addicts and needin rehab like it’s the thing to do. some people do need it, but i think eminem just tryin to get attention. if he really thought he was an addict, he would go to rehab quietly without talkin about it in magazines. he just tryin to get attention, same as he did with rappin bout killin his mom, same as the killing his wife song-he’s a bitch and he makes people think all us white boys r whiny little pussies like him. i ain’t hatin on people gettin help for their drug problemsm i’m just sayin quit tryin to get attention bout it. all his stan’s probly gonna bitch bout this, but he is a terrible rapper. i never have and never will buy one of his CDs, u want a good album go get Cam’s “Crime Pays”, not this “we made u” homo shit eminem puttin out. his rhymes r cornier and more watered down than anything u gonna find in a toilet after a BBQ. i’m not sayin it’s cool to do heroin, i’m just usin my experiences to explain the shit bein said here in this discussion.
May 5th, 2009 at 5:07 am
wut does weed gotta do wit this…..who doesnt smoke weed seriously…..my grandparents do……and weed isnt addictive its a craving….just like wanting a drink or some pussy…….most of u cats are fakin on this bitch any wau….making a second life fo ya self on the “COMPUTER”….just stop….maybe yall should hit some weed so u wont feel so stupid for talk bullshit.hahahah…………..props to the ppl who acctually read the blog instead of looking fora reason to look foolish like dub b d boy above me……..everyone already knows bout crime pays theres already ben about 999999999 fuckin leaks………and how the fuck all yall know so much bout rehab???????//………..FIENDS hahaha.can we get some real hip hop fans in this bitch plz….

Go preach somewhere else you fuckin geek, have a mother with addiction then talk homo
May 6th, 2009 at 12:36 am
lol to the kid who smokes 5 tims daily and quit to take a drug test with no problem then went right back to smoking, like i said theres a diffrence between dependence an adiction you need to learn it, like someone else said u in denial my dude straight up
anyway, as for em. Good looks with the realisation, its tough having a mother or family member who is an addict, you totally lose the one you love and gain a whole new terrible person in there place. cant talk to them at all cuz all ur talkin to is the drug they on.
#1 obv dont know shit and is a real punk. There a lot more to eminems relationship with his mother then the public knows, basicly you dont know shit.
to all the people saying eminem sucks are out of there minds. The dude raps more syllables and same sounding words in one line then most rappers do in 16bars. he actually has concepts and rips em well. he doesnt rap about the usual shit most rappers do, he has an amazing vocabulary and great venacular. his diction is amazing, he can turn up the speed real fast or spit it real slow. this is comming from a hip hop fan with a wide range of artists in my media player. I like shit anywhere from biggie to pac, from eminem to busta, from lil wayne to ti, from wu tang to fabolous, from joe budden to big el, from kanye to cassidy, from ludacris to snoop, from drake to juelz santana, from camron to slick rick, ect. ect. ect. you get my point. I like it all from old to new.
