It is an amazing book. I've read it 4 times in the last two months. I'm an addict myself and know the struggle he went through. Maybe not so much at his extreme level but I know what it feels like to be addicted. Much love Sixx...
As an ex heroin user myself this book is just like Heroin totally addictive reading the sketches are mad and that is exactly how it makes you feel. *****
I won't say its the BEST book I've ever read. I don't really enjoy reading books that were once diaries. Still this book just breaks the exception. I enjoy every moment of reading it and its SO well done. The drawings, the design, the pictures...everything is so well made that once you start you don't wanna stop. I've been reading it between classes(cuz at school we have 5 mins free between one class and another but they are usually 15) and at recess and whenever is time to put it down I suffer.
best book i have ever read. but i have to say, i really don't know how he survived. the first few chapters of the book are... insane. infact, insane doesn't even cover it. seriously people, go read it.. it's really, really amazing. the album is also amazing too [:
I just read the Heroin Diaries, its by far the best book i have ever read, the little lyric quotes and the quotes from the people who actually lived this amazed me. Most of us will never experience the things that Nikki did (thank god) and this book allows you to really get in his dark twisted mind... its a little confronting in some bits, not isnt that what we all need when it comes to this topic? something to make us reaslise how bad drugs are? seriously awesome book, cant beat it for me.
I fuckin love this book, I read once and then the novelty of it is that you can pick up and read it again, but you can do it from anywhere; its got that something else that other books or autobiographies don't have, I've probably read it about 4-5 times in total, I cannot get bored of it!
I also enjoyed the lyrics at the side and random thoughts as well as others opinions, its an underrated book, definetely tops Slashs book and that was AMAZING too!
I, too am reading the book right now. Very, very, very scary, insightful, amazing and wonderful book. An absolutely great read. Nikki looks amazing. Thank you for posting this clip!
2. Publish a diary that I made. (Would smell like weed, pepsi, and Tollhouse cookies.)
Sixx is my idol for making such a horrible and negative thing into a new band, book, and soundtrack. Great new songs, better than Motley Crue's in my opinion. But their both great.
Shitty bassist, and all he does in that diary is wine and piss and moan, like...come the fuck on you big prick, you're so fucking famous, fuck problems, you fucking made it...he did influence rock music with Crue though...kudo's to that.
Clearly you have no fucking idea what the fuck someone who is a heroin addict who goes through withdrawl fucking feels so go fuck off until u have felt that cuz we both fucking know that he is a goddamn courageous hero for fucking publishing a goddamn book to keep people AWAY from heroin. Nikki Sixx is a lucky fucking dude and a hero
YOU KNOW WHAT!!HE DOES NOT "MOAN", AND "PISS" SO WHY DONT YOU FUCK OFF UNTIL YOU GET WHAT HE WAS GOING THROUGH WHEN YOU HAVE NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS YOU DO THAT STUFF!!SO FUCK YOU STUPID FUCKING SHIT HOLE BASTARD!!!!!!! nikki sixx is a strong person unlike you so fuck off and get a life!!!
fuck you retard why dont you fuck off untill you get why people do drugs not to be cool fuck weed!!!FUCK YOU LEAVE NIKKI SIXX ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AND I WISH YOU WERE DEAD AND YOU ARE A FUCKING STUPID CUNT BITCH MOTHER FUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!
If this was an addict living on your street you wouldn't give a toss because he'd be in your house stealing things that can't ever be replaced to pay for a fix, but because he's a wealthy rock star it is some how classed differently.
I have lived on a street full of junkies and it was a nightmare, the only difference is Nikki is that he could afford not to be a thief.I'm not having a pop at Nikki, because he's putting all his past to good use by charity and by education, however lots don't.
I think the government should be doing more, instead of police arresting drug dealers they go out and fine motorists. The addicts sould be able to get diamorphine on prescription, then there would be no problem, but the government would have to pay, theyd rather get theyre cut of the drug money than help addicts.
The thing is with governments is you never know who's telling the truth, they control the world.
Once we were at war with countries where there was an out come/result, now its global war on terror, and because nobody knows who these terrorists are the war will last forever.
They spend trillions looking for a man in a cave, the same man they did oil/arms deals with previously - corruption? CONTROL? Who controls who?
exactly, if the government gave a shit, you wouldnt have people on the streets doing crime to fund their habits. we have the NWO to look forward too now!
we are talking about one issue, how you managed to generalise that into me having a go at the entire government and how they do everything...I have no idea. Your brain must work in mysterious ways.
trying to stop using heroin is the hardest, most painful, mentally challenging thing ever. recovered addicts are saints, i have alot of respect for them.
ok...u respect them for using an illegal drug... I respect Nikki for his contribution to rock but for letting go of heroin... he wouldnt have to get off it had he not used it in the first place
Are you retarded? Can you read? He said he respects RECOVERED addicts. Read the whole thing before you start preaching you ignorant fuck. I, for one, agree with wreck. Heroin is ridiculously hard to quit. Some can never quit. I think Nikki is a god. 1 reason would be making an awesome 80's band. Another would be that he recovered from heroin.
I love motley crue and when i read the heroine diaries it made me decide to stop smokin pot. I didn't wanna slip into a spiral that i've seen too many friends go into.
Ofcourse, there are a difference between weed and heroin, duh. They do different stuff to your brain, and work in different ways, and yeah, there are probably no OD:s from weed, but as, DancingTableLeg writes, it still is hell for the addict.
And hasch - btw - is worse for you when you are sober, 'cause that destroys the brain in that way, that you get black outs...huge ones. A friend of mine, who is sober now (and did hasch), can't even remember his first 20 years.
Good for you. I really hope that you don't take offense from those who says that it is not an achievement to recover from weed. They probably have never even sniffed gasoline (which I never will do again - done it once) and don't know a shit what they talk about.
And for those who not know, pot usually is the enter-drug for the heavy drug addictions. It isn't lesser of a drug for that reason.
Man, I'm a 14 year old guitarist, who usually doesn't idolize bassists...but Nikki Sixx...he is amazing...I love the Crue...and Mick Mars is one of my idols(he and I both have Anklosing Spondylisis) but Nikki...he really knows how to get what he wants to say out there...I really want to get the book so badly but they sold out after the first day!!!
I'm more of a classic hard rock guy: Hendrix (I've been listening to his Live at Winterland CD), Grand Funk, Deep Purple, 70s bands. I just saw Sixx's new CD today. I hope you were able to get that and the book you want. I have a mental disability.
I just finished reading it today, It's amazing. There's no other way to describe it. In the last entries I cried, seriously...you can feel it, it's like talking directly with a person. When I went to buy it, there were no books left so I ordered it, I have to say it really paid off. That book changes lives, and I have to thank Nikki for that.
Is that Nikki Sixx reading in the beginning of this vid? I have the book, and it would be great having it as an audio book as well, if Nikki's the reader. :)
They still have Motley Crue alive because I heard they are releasing another album, they are just working on it ^ ^ (which makes me happy). He's such a good speaker compared to other people (ha ha!). Some celebrities/rockstars (whatever) don't know a shit about talking, like if they were still in first grade or something.
I was in tears while reading the "Heroin Diaries", not just because of the pain and despair that comes with drug addiction, but also tears of joy that Nikki was able to beat his demons that almost killed him and come out the other side a better person for it. Go read the book...it will change your outlook on life!!!
The man is a fucking legend, he is the living proof that no matter how dark the place your`e at is, there IS light at the end of the tunnel and you can beat your demons.
He has been my idol for 22 years now, what a fucking hero.
The Dirt was a great book, but this is a "Diary of a Madman" on drugs of course. Nikki Sixx is a legend the album rocks, I can't wait to get the book.
this book is fucking mazing andthe soundtrack is great i love the crue i love nikki and i love rock n roll god bless nikki for battling his demons and living life now!
I bet Nikki and that announcer, um........
