Steven Tyler: Dude Looks Like a Rehab

61. Steven.................I wish you all the luck in the world. I saw you in Philadelphia in the 70's and I also was in Las Encinas myself for different reasons. Try to well as soon as you can and out of that dreadful place.

63. OK...first of all it does not say exactly what substance Steven is being treated for so let's NOT jump to conclusions. Recently Steven has had a few opperations on his feet/ankles etc. Maybe, just maybe he got hooked on perscription pain meds...who knows? Who cares? More importantly let's give the guy some credit at least he sees there is yet another problem and IS seeking help for it. Once an addict always an addict. It's only those who can control it that can actually stay clean, but they too know they will always be an addict. It taked strenght and a good support system to help people stay clean. Some slip from time to time. But the smart ones know it is a daily battle.

I for one am ever so thankful for all the wonderful music that Steven has contributed to during my lifetime. He is a VERY talented and artistic man who has a heart of gold. I've met him a few times and he has always been ever so kind. I cannot see kicking a man when he is down. A bit more support would do better than slamming him at such a low point. I'm sure Steven is beating himself up bad enough over this. Nobody likes to admit they have a problem but doing so shows courage. Give the guy some credit for admitting there is a problem and getting help.

Steven I wish you well...stay strong during your recovery...the music world would not be the same without your contributions.
Thank you for your kindenss, the talent you've shared with millions and for being man enough to get help.

Much love,
Jaded

66. Heroin is hard to kick had a feeling this was coming since the divorce and hanging out with a girlfriend his daughters age. He needs medical attention to do this properly especially since he has other health issues. Even tho he was clean (and I believe he was) people in the music industry dont respect that and will still try to shove the stuff in your face. Steven you are great and I wish you luck....

68. I wish Steven Tyler well on his battle against whatever it is that's trying to put it's brand on him. I just went in a popped in "Big Ones" just to hear some hits from Aerosmith. Great music! For the really mean people that have commented on here about his habit, why not just keep using drugs, he's old and about dead anyway, etc.; by God your day will come as well when life is crushing you down and you're not young, hip, and all the other things you think makes you strong. Tyler will beat his addiction because he has life experience and wisdom, something you negative people need a huge dose of. He's getting help. Good for him.

69. I am a recovering addict and I listen to his song "Amazing" on a daily basis because it is one of the tools I use to help me stay sober. Good luck Steven - NEVER give up on yourself. Stick with Jesus and you will find long term sobriety!

72. Christy, I agree with a lot of what you said. The only drug a person should not attempt to quit cold turkey is alcohol. Alcohol is the only drug that withdrawals can be fatal. You either have to spend days very carefully stepping yourself down from it or have you doctor give you a sedetive if you want to quit abruptly. Not everyone gets better in rehad. There are TONS of people who very successfully quit addictions on their own. And just because you were once a addict, does not mean you always will be. I was a major, hardcore, non-functioning alcoholic for years. I quit 10 years ago and today enjoy the occasional glass of wine or beer. AA and the medical industry are liars, and want people to beleive they are powerless and forever in an addictive prison. This is not true.
