Музыка

Therapist analyzes the lyrics of It's been a while by Staind to discuss how it being a while can actually be a hopeful thing because it means that at some point the things you want now were a reality. It means it's an accessible feeling the individual is seeking, which is easier than starting from scratch.

    My favorite song is his pretty recent live version of “Lost and Lonely” a song he wrote for his wife while in rehab for the last time. The ownership & realism , vulnerability he takes about is SO real & heart felt & the live version with just him, an acoustic guitar and a slide guitar is SO beautiful! If you haven’t seen it on KZread it’s so worth a watch. 🙂

    It's been awhile since he wasn't a heroin addict..."cannot blame this on my father..." "I can still remember just the way you taste" "Since I could see myself straight" "All the shit seems to disappear when I'm with you" Heroin addicts are in misery until they get their dose. "Since I held my head up high"...heroin addicts NOD, they aren't holding their heads up much. And...nodding will also cause someone to unknowingly drop their lit cigarette and burn the place down, like at the end of the video! 7:30

    It was the opposite with me. My dad became a Christian when I was around 13 and was preaching by the time I was 14. I just fell off of the deep end when a friend shot himself when we were 16 and in the navy I first tried shooting cocaine. I went progressively in a downward spiral until around 25 I overdosed on pure meth and barely survived. My dad had no way to relate to my struggle and no clue what to do. I just kept going further down until I ended up in prison for meth at 46. A prison rehab counselor took interest in me and my journey back began. I am a major alcoholic and drug addict. I am sober today. That is all that matters. ❤

    I've felt every bit of the pain of not only this song, but every song on the entire album this song is on. I was in a pretty deep pit for a long time in the early 2000s - this lingering depression. Yet I kept wandering, looking for something, even if there was nothing to find. In early 2006, interestingly enough in the context of this channel; ya know what song you recently reacted to that pulled me out of that pit? It was "Stinkfist" by Tool. THAT song, lit a FIRE inside of me. Tool has often lended me strength through music.

    Saturday will be 13 years since I kicked opioids. Unfortunately, my active addiction left a huge damage path, including my first significant relationship. And it's been a while since I could say I love myself...maybe I never had that ability. But this song has been making me cry since high school.

    From Lisalovesfeathers: @meghanmonroe Firstly can I say how bloody amazing it is that you have managed to firstly kick opioids and remain off of them for 13 years!!! What an amazing feat but not one that is plain sailing I am sure. I can imagine it was incredibly difficult, sometimes seemed impossible and there were many occasions you wanted to throw in the towel? But it appears that strength, courage and determination won through, sadly any fight like that will leave scars and my first instinct is to tell you to wear them with pride however its bloody hard to say goodbye to your first love. That one always feels super special and sometimes they genuinely are and sometimes they really are not, you just haven’t known anyone better to weigh them up against. To find that person, that person who will be the one, you do indeed need to feel deserved of that. I already think you are but now you need to know it, What you have accomplished should make you the hero of your own story, love yourself for that, recognise that this amazing person who has fought this addiction, this wonderful beautiful soul who wants and deserves love, affection and joy is deserving of it. Start by looking in the mirror and just saying “I am a good person, I love, I am loved, I love myself” eventually you will begin to believe it and once you do you will see things begin to open up and get lighter for you. People will see the lightness in you and be drawn to that. Its true and quite fascinating. I would love to know if you try and how you get on. Best of luck. Lisa x

    From Shan: @meghanmonroe Hi friend, Thank you for sharing. First, with it being Saturday, I'd like to wish you a happy 13 years!! Being clean and overcoming an opioid addiction for 13 years, and counting, is such an AMAZING accomplishment. I am so happy for you and proud of you - and I hope that you are too. I am sorry to hear about the things that you lost on your journey so far, and I imagine it can be hard to move on from when we think about the hurt or damage that have occurred. We can't change the past, we can only do things in the present, and already you have made decisions to better yourself and your future, and that is commendable. This is just an outsiders opinion, but I think, at the least, there was a time where you did have self-love because it takes soo much to be able to make a decision to get clean and to stick to that process. Maybe with the feelings of guilt that you feel, you lost sight of that self-love along the way. I hope that you will one day be able to forgive yourself for what happened whilst actively engaging in opioid addiction, and that you can forgive yourself for the things that you lost. You have taken steps to repair what damage could be repaired and you have been doing better for yourself. You are human, and you are doing your best. :white_heart:

I wanted to go out and say that I am so proud of you doing something with the opoid addiction. Your feelings are valid but I believe that you have loved yourself before; if you could say that you loved yourself before then you have the ability to love yourself again. Life is complex and full of changes; we live and we learn. We can't change the past but your experiences makes you flourish. Sometimes difficult paths leads to beautiful destinations.

    From djstarion: @Deadmaninc81 Hey friend! I totally get where you're coming from. I'm glad you've learned that you need to work on things and sought help! I do have a question, if that's okay. What kind of help have you reached out to? If you've reached out to a therapist or someone and it didn't work out, I'd highly suggest finding someone who specifically deals with PTSD. It's kinda like going to a doctor. There's general practice doctors and specialized ones. It's kinda the same way with mental health professionals. Finding the right one can be tricky, but when you do, it can be a huge help! Also, have you checked on any support groups in your area? They are an excellent option as well, because the best way to get your true feelings out and be supported and listened to is when you're talking to people who have gone through the same trials and situations you have. They've walked in your shoes, and fought your battles. It could definitely be worth looking into. Regardless, you've got this!

But thank you for your final words about this song, and it's actual hopeful message... because I have been really struggling with anxiety and depression for a while now (started experiencing a depressive episode late 2019, and oof the next few years didn't go so well lol), but what you said about it's been a long time but not forever, that I know what feeling good is, actually really helped me and my mindset, that I can get back to that place.

    This song will always remind me of the love of my life, twice over now. We were engaged over 20 years ago and things didnt work out. She came back into my life during the pandemic, and fundamentally changed me. Reminded me of who I was, who Ive always been. Sadly it didnt work out. I am thankful thou to her because I know Jesus again and who I have always been, even thou I buried it deep to hide the pain.

    I was a heroine addict for 17 yrs and I think he is talking more about the relationship with the drug than a relationship with a person. It's all in how u percieve it ig. Thru my addiction I messed up EVERY relationship n everything good I ever had. "I can remember just the way u taste" he is talking about using. "Its been awhile since I could look at myself straight" he got clean but he is remembering his relationship with the drug cuz as much as it destroyed me it was my best friend at the same time. I've been clean for 7 yrs now n this song still gives me chill bumps. Here it is 2024 n I can't listen to this song without it bringing tears to my eyes. I got shot in 2016 n was paralyzed n I relapsed n got myself together a year later but this song represents a time in my life that I learned so much about myself. Without my struggles I wouldn't have found my strengths

    This is my all time favorite band. The music had helped me through a lot over the years. "For You" would be perfect to get your perspective on. Also my favorite song "something to remind you." "Outside" and "mudshovel" are Staind classics. There are two songs of the new album... "Better Days" and the title track "Confessions of the Fallen"❤️no videos for those two but the lyrics are powerful.

    I cannot tell you how helpful you are to me. I've been listening to these songs for 30 years and did not have that perspective on them. They have always meant something to me. I've had some recent things in my life that are similar to The situations going on in this song. You really have my mind thinking another directions when it comes to my favorite music. I lost my son to suicide in 2019 and my wife left me a couple of years later. Since then I have been very alone. Heartbroken that I wasn't able to keep my family together.

  • @HeartSupport

    From Micro: @user-zt4sm3go2i Oh friend. Thank you so much for being here and sharing all of this. I can’t even begin to imagine the depth of your pain right now. Losing your son to suicide is something no parent should ever have to endure. It’s like losing such a significant part of yourself, of your world. The heartbreak it leaves you with just doesn't go away. It’s always there somehow. Then to have your wife leave you a couple of years later, on top of everything - you have been experiencing such an unbearable amount of loss and sorrow. I wish to just send you lots of hugs right now, even if I know this won't make the pain go away. My heart goes out to you right now. The loneliness, I imagine, has become almost a companion during those years, making everything feel heavier and more difficult. It’s like carrying this immense weight on your own, trying to navigate a world that doesn’t make sense anymore ever since your own world has been broken to pieces. It’s this deep, gut-wrenching pain that hits you in waves, sometimes when you least expect it. Some days might feel almost manageable, and then out of nowhere, it’s like the grief, the regrets and the loneliness come crashing down all over again. It's understandable, and profoundly human, to feel lost in all of it. It also makes sense to feel like guilt has been taking over at times. Feeling like you couldn’t keep your family together and questioning what you could have done differently. Even if you might know rationally that what happened was beyond your control, there's a part of your heart that might long for a better explanation, and the possibility to make sense out of something that doesn't seem to have any. I hope my friend that, at the moment, you can take it one day at a time, or even one moment at a time when it feels all too overwhelming. You matter so very much. You’re seen, you’re heard, you are valued, even in the darkest of times. :heart:

    Aaron Lewis's writing in staind is notably introspective, I think that's why so many people feel it. It's something that's not quite a mirror, but rather things you have, or would, or could speak if you were being honest.

    What you said at the end of this song resonated with me. About two years ago, before I lost my father to COVID-19, I was working out training in martial arts; I was in phenomenal shape and felt confident and like I could do anything. My career was taking off and going in a fantastic direction. I had that drive and fire to set an excellent example for my children. I was just happy! But after I lost my dad, I became sedentary, drank more, ate badly, stopped going to the gym, stopped training martial arts, and then after a few months, I became disgusted with what I became because I realized I was not a good role model for my girls anymore. I was sitting around watching TV and not doing anything, not being active, was setting a horrible example for my girls. Anyway, I looked back at some pictures that were taken the summer before my dad passed, and all I can think is how badly I want to get back to how I felt when those photos were taken that summer. So, like you said, it’s not like I have never felt that, and therefore, you can feel that again. Will it be precisely the same? No, because my dad is no longer here, and he’s not coming back. But I think I can get close to how I felt during that wonderful time by returning to the gym and training and re-establishing that drive I had in my career and putting that energy towards my family again. Thank you!
