Get help Amy. You are truly a very talented woman. Don"t let
drugs ruin your life and career. Just do it Sweetheart! You can just have to make up your mind to do so. I speak from experience honey.

amy has great talent......and....amy is physically,
mentally and spiritually sick....and it is a progressive sickness.......it cannot be treated in
a hurry.....
i too pray amy gets into a longtime treatment
center (with no press)... like an island in the
caribbean.....and then a 12 step program like
NA for the rest of her life.....i know i've been
in one of those programs for 30 years.

Lets face it. Most great artists have 'something'. Be it a troubled childhood, abuse or emotional problems that leave them open for raw emotion. They use that situation in their art. Art is pain and stress relieve for them In Amy's music you feel her raw emotion and pain. I hope she gets her live together and her problems sorted out.

But....
She wouldn't be succesfull without the problems that trouble her. Its a shame those problems drive her to drugs and a selfdestruct lifestile but a clean trouble free Amy would be just another idols 'I wannabee a great singer runner up'. It would miss that 'certain something'.

Stop giving press space to these druggies, it's not entertainment to watch people voluntarily flush their lives away, screwing over their fans as they go I should add, and then make these pathetic attempts to get clean whilst remaining in the public spotlight.
Focus on artists who actually get on stage and put on a good show.

I am reminded of Grace Slick, 68, who was the lead singer in Jefferson Airplane, a big rock group in the late 60s. Winehouse resembles her, minus the tattoos (hair, demeanor) but Winehouse is headed for death unless she becomes desperate enough to go to NA or some 12 step program. NA is over 50 years old, based on AA but with its own "Big Book" and literature. Death may not be physical, but spiritual and emotionally. Alcohol abuse is the worst, but combined with narcotics it is devastating. I hope she realizes that rehabs are not time shares. Will it take a woman's prison to get her attention?

please! not another janice joplin! when will the artistic world realise that drugs just stifle the talent, not enhance it. wish amy all the best in her ensuing struggle, she is a unique talent.

Enormous talent, incredible emotions when she performs.. she is in desperate need of help but she has to want it and has to do it for herself - have been there myself and know just how hard it is,probably much more so for Amy cause the world is watching her . she will have a very tough road but am pulling for her to make it

I am so glad Amy that you have at last sought help. You are such a beautiful and talented young woman with the world at your feet. Use the world to give you all the support that you need to recover, (which you will with time). There are lots of people out here who are praying for you and sending you white healing light, just let it in. Be possitive and soak up the love being sent you.

As a grateful recovering addict I know what it is like. It saddens me to see someone in that state but it takes what it takes. I hope she finds help,

It is harder to stay sober than it is to stay clean.

We should not believe this claim of drug treatment until we see a schedule. And the doctor's name. And a published protocol, detailing treatment specifics. *** The worst case would be a "Howard Hughes" pattern scam to loot her assets. If she remains dependent and paranoid, this risk will be present. Any number of hard men, criminals, will be challenged to separate Amy from her millions. *** Bluntly, no other medical doctor I know would agree to drug treatment where there is no control. No blood tests. No extended therapy. No dental treatment, considering that she has lost 2 teeth from cocaine poisoning. (Cocaine forms an acid.) *** Simply, this "statement" is not credible as it stands. Amy's life remains at risk. The photos from 5 AM, out in the cold, undressed, shoeless, delusional -- these images speak for themselves. *** Please, pray for Amy Winehouse. A truly wonderful young woman, apart from her substance abuses.
