artie is an expert on heroine abuse (first hand) and basically said that when prince refused get that hip operation a few years ago, he was probably prescribed percoset (which is essentially heroine in a pill form).

Then he said he got addicted to them shyts and was reduced to being a junkie like anyone else who gets addicted. he said prince was seen riding his bike to walgreens recently and that he probably had a pharmacist who was doing him a "favor" with the pill supply.

he went on to explain how prince, when they reported him having the flu, that was simply him starting withdrawals, which is why they took him to the hospital, cuz he didn't have any more pills. he said the pills killed him essentially.

then he went on to talk about MJ and how he got addicted when he was burned. but MJ's addiction was waaay worse, cuz he was using dilaudin (which he was getting from a crooked plastic surgeon) which is waaaaayyyyy stronger, and then using amphetamines to wake up. so he was explaining how when everyone was saying MJ looked so good performing right before his death, they were telling the truth. he's using the shot of dilaudin to put him to sleep and amphetamines to wake him up. so when we all saw him performing right before, he was high as shyt and full of energy. it was a vicious cycle. so it's no suprise he died of cardiac arrest from constantly using uppers and downers to sleep and wake up basically.

1st of all I understand addictive behavior, but people that are addicted to something that is killing them and don't put effort into quitting are weak.
My dad was an alcoholic and always talked about how he really wanted help. But he never really put in the effort. He died because of it. He was a good man, but he was weak.

2nd America has this dumb culture of pill popping. Every little illness, any kind of discomfort we just get prescribed all kinds of drugs. What do you expect when you keep dumping drugs and foreign things into your body? Growing up all we had in the house was Advil and vitamins. We fought things off naturally. Every time I go to the doctor for something he/she will always say "I am going to write you a prescription for...."

I always decline and tell them that I just wanted to know what was wrong and how serious it is. Now if it is life threatening, of course I'll take it, but If I can fight it off on my own, I'll do that. Plus your body gets stronger on it's own that way. America is a doped up country.


Where you from nikka...

lemme clear some shyt up here...

you can't die from perc withdrawal or opiate withdrawal in general. its extremely unpleasant, and you might feel like you want to die, but it can't kill you. xanax/benzo withdrawal and alcohol withdrawal actually can, due to seizures
you can't really OD on percs either; they are mixed with tylenol. if you took enough for the oxycodone to actually kill you, the tylenol would kill you first

mike jack was on some other shyt. he was taking the stuff they use to put you under for surgery... just to goto bed at night. even administered by a doctor it's extremely dangerous.

prince wouldn't be going to the pharmacy to get hooked up, unless he had a legit prescription. the laws are too strict for that now. doctors and especially pharmacists arent just giving shyt away, even to celebs

for as much as artie has been through battling drug addiction, he has always said some stuff on the HS show that made me be like :what: either he is highly uninformed, or he would say some stuff that made him seem like he was uninformed to downplay his own drug use. i think that was the case. this is a guy who said on air that he was sober and then came out in a book stating that he never did a show sober for years. even 50 cent said something to him on air about how :scust:he was

yea. if dude od'd on pills, he prolly was doing roxys or shyt. if it was serious hip problems, dude wasnt being given perc 5s and 10s and from what i know they dont make em higher than that. that shyt is for ya teeth being pulled. for back and hip problems the doc given you higher prescriptions and lil prince could have easily died from a few blues.

I was banging dilaudids i feel u man
god bless you bro. i only tell of my problems to help others now. i wouldnt put this on my worst enemy. ive lost so many friends to this shyt its scary. normal everyday folk who were brought up in good homes who got a few pills and ended up shooting dope and just dying.im suprised im not dead tbh. fiends used to be mad at me ove rthe amount id do at once,e xpecting me to break them off. im clean now thank god. hope you are too bro. god bless

MJ didn't die from an OD.
MJ was murdered by a doctor if my memory is correctly.

Prince is the one whose addictions got the best of him, MJ was murdered by a shyt doctor who then was convicted of it and got his license back.

MJ was taking propofol just to go to sleep... That shyt is high medical grade anesthesia. I had it when I had an endoscopy for my stomach, I was unconscious within seconds and fukked up when I woke up. I have no idea how anyone could use that shyt on a regular basis

I think he was saying that MJ was getting dilaudid from a plastic surgeon as well. I'm guessing he was on a variety of drugs. lets be reality here.
