Here is an excerpt from the book:

"I remember the first time I got high. I was 15 years old and I was at a party with some friends. Someone offered me a joint and I took it. I didn't think much about it at the time, but that one joint would change my life forever.

"I started smoking weed regularly and soon I was drinking and ng other drugs as well. I loved the way drugs made me feel. They made me feel happy and confident. They made me feel like I could do anything.

"But drugs also started to take a toll on my life. I started to lose interest in school and I started to withdraw from my friends and family. I was becoming a different person, and not in a good way.

"One day, I woke up and realized that I couldn't live like this anymore. I was addicted to drugs and I knew that if I didn't get help, I would die.

"I went to rehab and it was the hardest thing I've ever done. But it was also the best thing I've ever done. Rehab saved my life.

"I've been clean for over 10 years now and I'm grateful for every day that I'm alive. I'm grateful for my wife and children, I'm grateful for my music, and I'm grateful for the second chance that I've been given."

If you are struggling with addiction, please know that you are not alone. There is help available and you can recover. Mikel Jollett's Hollywood Park is a powerful reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope.
