In the world of music, it has long been a practice to combat severe drug addiction by turning to alcohol instead.

This was the case for Keith Richards and Eric Clapton, who managed to rid their lives of heroin through this harsh, dangerous, and potentially lethal method. Yet, they survived.

Amy Winehouse attempted the same approach, but with a tragic outcome.

The inquest into her death revealed that no drugs were present in her system; however, her blood alcohol level was five times the legal limit for driving.

At the age of 27, Amy Winehouse lost her life while trying to overcome a serious drug addiction by resorting to heavy drinking.

Unfortunately, she was too fragile to succeed, and her death is both a loss and a tragedy.

Amy did not want to pass away, but despite this, some continue to leave bottles of alcohol at the doorstep of her now-vacant Camden Town residence.

It’s difficult to imagine a more inappropriate tribute to leave on Amy’s doorstep.
