As Duff told me: "When Scott got in this band he said: `I've got a habit, I've lost my family, and I want to get off of this shit'. Scott knew I got sober through martial arts, so I took him twelve-hundred miles away from LA, up to these mountains to see this martial arts, kung fu master that I know. I had a bag full of fucking drugs that this doctor gave me, for me to wean Scott off the shit - and I'd have to shoot Scott in the ass a couple of times a day. It was like a boot camp - but it worked."

McKagan continued: "So Scott came out of that experience clean, and slowly but surely he won his wife back, and his kids. So that fight we have, in the 'Fall To Pieces' video, is all part of that; and then ['m shown hugging him, and I'm saying: 'It's okay, you've got yourself through it, it's going to be alright."'

In response, Weiland expands: "Oh yeah. That experience up in the mountains was a real purge for me, naturally. It was actually quite surreal. We had a master in about six martial-art forms, and his wife is a master in t'ai chi. So we would get up in the morning and meditate and go into t'ai chi, and then there was a schooling session, and then there was some running, and we would finish with a hard training session later on in the day. And it went on like that."

Duff said you came to him when you were desperate for help.

"That's right," Weiland affirms. "It all came to a head after I was arrested for narcotics possession, and the day after was when I really fell to pieces, so to speak. I had always looked to Duff as a sort of mentor. I was very interested in how he got sober through martial arts. So I asked him for help. And he suggested that we get on a plane, fly up to Seattle, where he's from, and then drive up to the mountains. We ended up staying up there for about a month and a half, and it was completely cathartic... although even that word seems to be taking it lightly." And the 'Fall To Pieces video tells the tale of that experience?

"All that and more," Scott reveals. "The song is the crux of the album; it's really the turning point. Without Duffs help, I wouldn't have my wife and my children back; and I really can't tell you if I would be even talking to you today, to tell you the truth. So for the `Fall To Pieces' video I called up Kevin Kerslake, who I've worked with many times in the past with Stone Temple Pilots, and I told him what my idea was: to tell the whole fucking story. And he said: 'If that's what you want to do, you're going to have to be really brave about this and dig deep, and go to a place that could be scary. You're going to have to go back to some experiences over the last couple of year; that were really dark for you.'"

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein
"Fear is the great barrier to human growth." ~ Dr. Robert Monroe

Fact is it wouldnt matter if I had all the things that western civilization thinks should make me happy. ie Consumerism. Im still missing the one thing I want most.

I guess I do need to suck it up and move on hearing about you quitting herion definatly makes me think 2x about what Im going thru. It cant be anything like what you did.

My suggestion is to get outside, hang out with non-drug users, essentially occupy your mind so that you don't think about weed or alcohol or drugs.

Whenever I'm doing anything physical, weed is nowhere in my mind.
