Van Zant - I cant help myself cover vid.

. It's actually a story of VICTORY. I battled pill addiction for 13 years and this video simply shows what can happen when pills take over your life. I am one of the Lucky ones to have survived them. But don't be fooled. They are always lurking and can at any point reconsume you. I hope you enjoy this video. I shot this video with a flip ultra, and used windows movie maker to edit. No alcohol was cosumed in this video, in fact, i cant stand the stuff and have never had an issue with it, i just used the paper bag for effect in the video and I realize that alcoholism is a huge problem in america as well and wanted any alcoholic who might watch this to know that they are not excluded from the wrath of addiction. Thanks for everyone's support who has pm'd me on this video and in everything. yall ROCK! Pay no attention to the haters and trolls who leave shitty comments, they are in the grips of their own personal issues.
Disclaimer:
I claim no parts of the music content in this video. It is owned by its creators soley and in no way do i, nor will i receive or accept any monitary contributions for its use. It's just a kickass song that I felt perfectly explains my story.

Great work-BVD: I have had family members suffer from this as well-fortunatley they asked for help as you did. I am a TEXAS LONGHORN and a veteran and proud of both of those facts.

i hope that folks see this and get help in any way they can.

Thanks and take care-GO VOLS and HOOK EM HORNS.

@alamokid40 thanks, glad you liked it. hope it is an inspiration to many. these assholes leaving shit comments dont realize what its like and all it takes is for one person to say one bad thing to the wrong person and the wrong time and bang, we've lost another life to drugs.....stay strong

I have to ask, what is the significance of the little girl getting on the bus. That must be your daughter and I am assumming one of your angels!!!!! Angels come in many forms!!! I just can't comment enough on this because it is soooo true, Doctors out there are sooo willing to give u what u want and then decide to just take it all away. I do have a pain issue and I have to deal with it, I pray, I use my church, and I see counselors and psychiatrists and pain management specialists I just pray...

[BigVOLdaddy]

@44JillO yes, an angel. and a reason to live.

This song has been my inspiration while trying to overcome the addiction of crack cocaine that I started using in order to numb the pain I experienced from the tragedy of my husbands unfaithfulnesswith his best friends wife!!!

I triied to overcome my pain by praying constantly but was not patient enough upon the Lord by turning to drugs to ease my pain! I had lost my children and startred feeling again and the pain still remains the same !!! Jesus is the only way I survived!!! He will help !!!

Just beautiful, man. This will make me never do any type of drugs, other than my good ole can of Grizzly, of course!

I love everything you put out about Tennessee football (Roll Tide), but this took the cake. Thanks for sharing.

Great video BigVolDaddy!! God is willing to help us with anything. We just have to be willing to ask HIM for help, from the heart. I hope that God uses this great video to touch others that may be having a hard time in life. We all have hard times for that matter.... Trust in the Lord. Ask HIM for help. God bless!
