In an Instagram post on 31 August, Dash wrote: "I was strolling through #tiktok and found a #DMX song that has saved me many times. "Suddenly it says #RIP I know I am late, I did not know he passed away, he #OD I am heartbroken - he was such a great guy." https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch8P8gmO9YQ/ Dash - who has previously opened up about her past drug addiction - apologised to her followers that she was unaware of DMX's death, saying: "I didn't know DMX died; I didn't know (it was) from a cocaine overdose." The actor then talked about her own battle against drugs and made an emotional plea to her followers not to lose the fight. "I am today, six years and one month clean and it breaks my heart. It breaks my heart that he lost to it. He lost. He lost to that demon of addiction. Please, please don't lose," she said. While many fans were somewhat bemused by Dash's post, asking "is this a joke" and requesting that she delete it, many have also been supportive. "You're inspiring me to continue trying to be fully sober fyi. No pressure literally but saying so because thank you for uplifting others by uplifting yourself," one comment reads. Another says: "Leave her alone. She has been very open about her pill addiction. Clearly, she's triggered by something and dealing with stuff. We love Stacey." Dash spoke about her drug addiction in an episode of the Dr. Oz Show last October, saying that at one stage it got so bad she was taking "18 to 20 pills a day". She also told how she first tried drugs aged eight and attempted suicide at 17. Her life was saved as her friend rushed her to hospital.@official.staceydash I was strolling through #tiktok and found a #DMX song that has saved me many times.
