I had a drinking problem and lost my family. I heard this song driving in Nashville while thinking about ending my own life. This song made me break down hysterically and I ended up at my first aa meeting that evening. Been sober since february 29th.

My husband passed away yesterday while we were listening to this song. Mid way through the song he took his last breath. At the age of 40, he lost his battle to cancer. This song was something we both loved before but now it holds more meaning then ever to me. 😭

Edit: 8/19/25- Thank you so much to you all for your kindness. It'll be 2 years October 7th and adjustment is definitely a slow process. I still think about him a lot and see him in my kids. It's tough knowing there is so much my kids won't get to experience with him like walking down the aisle or my boys learning how to shave. I'm thankful that I could share this and get so many healing responses. Thinking of you all who have lost loved ones. ❤

I posted a comment on this song 8 months ago, I promise yall can look it up. saying I was ready to be clean and that this song was the turning point in my life. I'm proud to say today I am 7 months sober and you infact saved my life jelly.  The power of music is amazing. These words are so powerful it changes lives. And I am walking talking proof. I owe you for changing my life. Somebody did save me. Me from myself. And today  I am beyond grateful thanks jelly you Tha man! 🙏

My mom died 5 years ago I'm still stuck I can't get out

His singing voice is criminally underrated

Holy shit i just made this comment cause i love jelly singing thanks for all the likes guys❤️❤️❤️

My brother just took his own life. He loved this song. We played it at his funeral on Friday. If you’re struggling/suffering, please reach out for help. You are loved beyond anything you can imagine, beyond any mistakes you have made.

So few months ago when this song was brand new I remember being high on heroin sitting in my van listening to it. Shit had me crying sobbing like a baby. Today I'm 51 days clean, and going to meetings regularly again. Had a lot of clean time before but have had a couple relapses. Music has always been therapy for me and this song really hits home. I can identify wholeheartedly with these lyrics...

I am in rehab battling addiction lord please help me fight harder

I am a 54 year old Disabled Veteran with severe PTSD and severe depression as well as other service related injuries.  This song was my 1st time hearing Jelly Roll. I am floored. I can NOT stop listening to this song. This song hits home with me on so many levels.

I cried to this song so many times. It’s so relatable bro. This is coming from a black man who predominantly listens to rap. This song literally describes so many people no matter the skin color. We all have one thing in common, the human struggle.

This goes out to anyone suffering from anxiety, mental illness, depression, and substance abuse. I hope you find the inner peace you deserve and have sought after. Things will get better we just have to have faith.

Thanks for letting me know that at least God still loves me ❤😅🎉

Young man, you have touched my 67 year old heart. I graduated in 1975 from high school so the last 48 years I've seen a lot of life and done a whole lot of living, my 24 year old grandson brought your music to my notice and you Sir, are worthy to be called an artist. You've got the touch to portray your heart to musical notes and pass on your emotion into others hearts. Well done. Well done. God bless.

My mom played this song on repeat the month before she died. I introduced Jelly to her and she fell instantly in love. This song brings tears. I miss my mom.

My husband is having a hard time right now. There are times I forget his struggle and I become consumed with my own feelings. Today was one of those days. I started looking at our old pictures, being with this man for 25 years and I still get butterflies. I’m going to play this song for him tomorrow and ask him to dance with me. maybe nothing connects for him but maybe it will, at the very least I will get to dance with my husband. Here’s to tomorrow ❤️
UPDATE: 11/21/2024 - here’s an update, yes we danced 💕 he wasn’t listening to the lyrics at first bc he was trying to figure out what I was up to lol but then he started listening to the lyrics and got very quiet and just wrapped his big ole bear arms around me. We ended up holding each other and just swaying back and forth but I know it reached him. We live in Asheville NC so needless to say these past few months have been tough on everyone. My husband was in Cary when the storm hit. He had just started his new job and had to pick up his work truck. Neighbors and I had to remove trees as we were blocked in. I found 1 bar of service to call my husband to tell him not to try and come home bc all roads and interstates were blocked. He told me he would call me the next day but couldn’t get ahold of me bc we had no service. I was feeling pretty low, was outside cleaning up from the storm when my husband pulled up. I almost hit my knees when I saw him. It usually takes 4 hours from Cary to get to Asheville. It took my husband 9 hours to get home. He told me, honey ain’t no little ole storm going to keep me from getting to you…. Little ole storm ha, my ass but I do love that man. ❤️

Jelly please don’t turn against God. He already died for us. We will be in paradise soon

I'm 36 days clean today.. I've been battling this disease for 13 long years.. this time around I got the treatment I needed.. after getting back home I've been struggling sooo bad.. every time I'm having a hard time which is more often then not I listen to your music.. when I start listening my cravings are so bad I'm about to use.. but by the time the song is over or songs depending on how bad it is my craving is over.. thank you for helping me stay sober and make me realize I am worthy and not worthless

I know this is a little different for me, but I’m wondering if this should make the album or not. Y’all let me know below.

How many people would like a full acoustic album from Jelly Roll?? Let's blow his stuff up, I think our souls need it!! Who agrees??

cries like a baby

This comment section too ❤ I love that we can all talk together in this safe place. Thank you jelly roll.
