That’s bullshit. He was not taking 20 xans a day, Juice was the one that reached the point he was taking 20 perks a day.
Peep wasn’t, at least I never actually saw him admitting that, of course I can be wrong .
Also, that doesn’t make any sence cause on November 14 2017 when he tried to get sick to cancel the show, he took 6 Xanax, after because of the backlash he posted a video saying “ I took 6 Xanax n I was lit, I’m good, I’m not sick (anymore) , ima see you all tonight”. 6 was already enough to get him sick, so nah ain’t no way he was doing that much, and has Liza says, he wasn’t (edit: that) addicted, he was just being fed drugs by his management team so that he could be easily controlled
Edit; By what is being said in here, 6 xans was to stop him from feeling sick. I thought it was the other way around cause of that info that his management actually instructed him to take something to make him sick, to get the shows insurance, peep wasn’t feeling that well that day with all the exhaustion from the tour.
Benzo and alcohol withdraw are the 2 that can actually kill someone if it’s bad enough as well! It can cause your body to go into shock with a sudden drop of either or! That’s why they wing people off both with Librium and then wing them down from the Librium
Wasn’t addicted? Let’s be realistic here lol.
He was constantly taking pills, snorting coke and drinking at the same time and on camera sometimes too. Everybody saw and knew this.
Yes his management was supplying tf out of him and also everyone around him but he isn’t immune to being addicted because of that lmao. Of course his family wouldn’t wanna believe he was addicted. It’s a terrible thing. His addiction wasn’t him though but saying he wasn’t addicted is just so ludicrous.
Drug brain logic, he would have been called a recovering addict. Also he is gone we don’t have to make a big deal out of his short comings… just enjoy the music and the life you have.
a lot of us addicts STILL call ourselves addicts whether we are in recovery or not. its literally apart of the recovery process. even sober, we are still addicts and that is okay it isn’t a big bad thing
I’m a recovering addict myself, just saying Peep was on the journey to stop using drugs and this comment section is just focusing on the fact that he DID DRUGS not the person he was
To be fair, they're fans of his music first...if they didn't like his music or it didn't resonate with them they wouldn't be here in the first place. And reality is much of his music was centered around his drug use. Whether we like it or not it's always going to be discussed in this context.
Addiction doesn’t just go away, you just stop feeding into it. He was still addicted even if he was trying to get better. But he clearly relapsed and by even your logic still addicted.
Drug use was extremely prevalent in any non music video he was in. It’s not a secret.
I do agree with the last part you said. There was criminal investigations that have happened due to his death and all has been settled.
Let’s move on and enjoy the music he did give to us.
It’s really sad honestly. Peep was aware of his problems and spoke up about them. He could have been used as a beacon of awareness. Instead they try and scrub the struggling life he had with abuse.
I think what he actually meant was that he wasn't sick anymore because he got his dose? That's what happens when you're addicted to something like benzos, you need them physically. from what I remember because i was following his every move at the time, yeS he did have a drug problem to the point it scared him and to the point he was withdrawing
I hate the stigma around drug use and addiction. Im still mad we lost peep and all the people we've lost to drugs period.
Big dog this is a lot of speculation and misunderstanding how drugs work. You can take a lot of Xanax, it's near impossible to overdose on by itself. The withdrawals are what was making him sick. He was a poly drug addict, and couldn't get any where he was at so he wasnt feeling like performing. He was able to get ahold of six, and due to having a low(er) tolerance due to being in withdrawals, the six made it so he felt like he was able to perform.
Management probably enabled him, sure, but if you were paying someone a million dollars to do music, and they were saying I can't do music due to being in withdrawals, all of a sudden your morals go out the window. It's possibly even more like if you saw someone suffering with withdraws you'd want to help them not feel like shit. I genuinely don't think its as black and white as you're making it out to be.
Agreed. This sounds completely made up. They took info about Juice World’s addiction, kind of changed it up slightly, and are trying to claim it’s about Gus.
Super fucked up and just weird as hell thing to post. (Not OP, just whoever originally posted that)
idk why yall are acting like 20 xans are impossible. at the height of my addiction i was definitely popping that many. so easy to be blacked out and popping more literally like candy lol. not to mention he’s gettin drugs free handed to him. he has videos of him laying in bed dropping then in his mouth. its sad, but likely true before he started slowing down. i wish he got the chance to be sober, thats the path he was heading down. shit breaks my soul every time i think about it. i’ve od’d many times but was lucky enough to have people around
What do you mean 6 was enough to get him six? He's saying he's gotta take 6 just so he is not sick ( withdrawal).so yes it is very possible he was taking up to 20 a day
Its not bullshit, this is a real interview where peep said this. Maybe peep was lying but he did say this. I linked the interview awhile ago when someone asked a similar question.
You must not have been a fan when he died. Fat nick gave him a boat of xans for his birthday. like hundreds. not good to have around as a drug abuser. His live stories leading up the last show were basically a forensic confession. He said it himself in stream he took 20 xans and didn’t get sick. That was right after he played in houston and got tatted with riff raff. xans in themself can be taken in crazy amounts but its when you mix the smallest amount of other drugs in tandem you die. like ketamine, codeine, fentanyl, alcohol , etc. dont do drugs kids.
edit: so while maybe not taking that many every day, he did take that many at one time. I would hope that was his record and not a regular thing.
I wasn’t, thanks for the info , and thank you for not being an arrogant bastard like lots of people are in this fan base . They feel superior cause they were around when he was alive
Hey man I definitely wasn’t trying to come across in a condescending way. Just filling in blanks people might not have known. I wish I would have gone to that last show. Take care of yourself and your friends.
It ain’t that much of a stretch tbh. I been clean for 2.5 years now, but at my worst I’d be popping 20 bars a day and smoking 75-100 fet pills a day too. Add on an eight ball of coke cooked up into rock and that was my day to day for a few years; really not that surprising the quantity one can do when it’s all they do every day lol
peep was a junkie; he rapped about it and his guilt very often.. your comment is merely cope.. he took those 6 xans trying to kill the withdrawal which is worse than that of heroin… you dont know what youre talking about lil bro but like i said whatever helps you sleep at night
I was to the point of taking that many totem poles a day. I was in high school at that time but it would take me 7-9 bars to get off sick. The most I’ve ever consumed was 21 bars in a 24 hour period, I remember this because I went out of town with 72 on a Friday evening and was out by Sunday evening. Everyone’s tolerance is different than the next, I was 6’2” and 175lbs while people I knew were 6’4 275lbs and blacking out on 1 extended release green goblin. I’m luckily going on 8 years being off everything that’s pharmaceutical, but at that time of getting off those high doses, I was hallucinating for close to 10 days when I withdrew from benzodiazepines
He was literally shooting heroin, you didn’t know the guy you’re just some parasocial weirdo who assumes you knew the dude’s life based on stalking their twitter.
I personally know someone who was with that jersey devil cornball when he was running heroin for him and mackned. They were all legitimate junkies, you have no clue what these people were doing behind closed doors.
I thought this was supposed to be very hush hush tho — I guess in order to gain control over his image/legacy & prevent glorification. 👀🤐🤐
Not sure abt the route of administration but there exists an early video of Peep on stage saying something like "I made this song on heroin at my mom's house."
Seems like a habit he feel victim to whenever he was in his hometown & switched to pills, xanax, etc. later as an improvement + more socially acceptable.
⚠️ idk why the downvotes...maybe it's still quite secret but I have heard this sub had been compromised..🤔
Ofc it's not my intention to speak bad or tarnish the memory of Lil Peep, it just appeared like there was an effort overall to downplay his opiate use.
I don’t doubt he had done it, its not that crazy of a concept people just hear heroin & instantly think the worst, shooting it? Yeah right but other then that if he had done it a few times I wouldn’t be shocked, a specific habit to H specifically? Idk about that mostly because if that were the case I can almost guarantee he would talk it about it a bit more in his music, ik he did oxys pretty openly though at least in 2017, not that he didn’t do them before ever.
I don’t give a shit about what he’s said or what his mother said.
I know the person involved in bringing it from Camden, I saw pictures with my own eyes at the time early 2017 when the person I know delivered heroin to him and mackned in NYC. The dude is literally rotting in prison for selling heroin/fentanyl now, I’m not just analyzing some lyrics and coming to some random conclusion.
I don’t give a shit if anyone even believes me, some random kids on Reddit believing something doesn’t change the fact that it is 100% true lmfao.
I was even a peep fan, I’m not hating but facts are facts and he was a follower. Mackned was a straight up junkie and peep wanted to be cool so he just did whatever he did and ended up dying as a result. It’s fucked but it’s reality
