Slash: From Rock Bottom to Rock Legend – A Journey of Sobriety

The pain you feel today is the strength you feel tomorrow.
What happens when a rock legend decides to turn his life around? In this gripping episode of 'Rock Recovery', host Jane Gordon sits down with the iconic Slash, the lead guitarist of Guns N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver. Known for his wild antics and musical genius, Slash opens up about his tumultuous battle with addiction that almost ended his life. Imagine being told you have just weeks to live because your heart is failing from years of alcohol abuse.
That was Slash's reality in 2001, at just 35 years old. Diagnosed with a severe form of heart disease, he had to make a choice: continue down a path of destruction or fight for his life. Spoiler alert – he chose life. Slash's candid conversation reveals the highs and lows of his journey, from overdosing multiple times to finally surrendering to rehab in 2006. He hasn’t looked back since.
This episode isn't just for rock fans; it’s for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Slash's story is a raw, unfiltered look at the music industry's dark side and the hope that comes with recovery. He shares how he navigates sobriety in an environment where excess is the norm and emphasizes the importance of community in staying sober. His message is clear: seeking help can save your life.
Tune in to hear Slash discuss his past, his present, and his ongoing commitment to helping others find their way out of addiction. It's a testament to the power of resilience and the strength that can emerge from our darkest moments.
