ADDICTION IS LIKE THE HARDEST THING TO DEAL WITH NO ONE TRULY UNDERSTANDS WHAT IT IS LIKE UNTIL THEY ACTUALLY BECOME AN ADDICT.I SYMPATHIZE WITH DJAM YOU THINK YOU GOT IT LICKED AND THEN BOOM HERE I GO AGAIN.ALL I CAN SAY IS HE PROBABLY FELT WORSE ABOUT THE NEW ADDICTION AND TURNED TO SOMETHING HE KNEW.I HOPE HE IS FINIALLY AT PEACE AND HIS DEATH CAN MAKE EVERYBODY ELSE REALIZE THAT MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS ESPECIALLY WHEN ADDITION IS ENVOLVED.BEING A CELEBRITY DOESN'T EXCLUDE YOU FROM IT.IM AN RECOVERING ADDICT AND EVERYDAY BRINGS NEW CHALLENGES THAT I HAVE TO FACE CLEAN AND SOBER.I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FLY CROSS THE GLOBE TO GET HIGH.I DIDN'T KNOW DJ AM BUT I KNOW HIS JOURNEY.YOU'LL BE MISSED BY FAMILY AND FRIENDS BUT YOUR FREE FROM THAT MONSTER CALLED ADDICTION AND I HOPE THAT MAKES YOUR LOVED ONES FEEL JUST ALITTLE BIT BETTER IF THAT MAKES ANY KIND OF SENSE. GOD BLESS YOU DJ AM REST NOW THE PAIN IS OVER.
