Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx revealed that he is 22 years sober, or as called it “264 months.” He posted a long note on social media saying that it’s been “one hell of a beautiful and sometimes difficult journey.”

He said, “Truth is, nobody held my hand while I was kicking heroin, in fact, nobody even called to even check on me. Nor did anybody hold my hair while I was vomiting blood. I had to make the decision alone to change my life.”

He went on to say that he learned the tools for a “beautiful life even in the face of adversity.” And found people who understood his addiction.

His post seemed to be a plea for those dealing with addiction issues, he wrote, “Do it for you and pass it on to the people you love and those in need.”
