Around this time, Gontier developed an addiction to the prescription [[narcotic analgesic|drug]] [[OxyContin]]. After finishing the tour for their first album, the band knew they could not continue with the condition he was in, so in 2005, with the support of his family, friends, and band members, Gontier checked himself into the [[Centre for Addiction and Mental Health]] (CAMH) in Toronto.<ref name="The Star">{{cite news |last=Wagner |first=Vit |title=Saving Grace |url=https://www.thestar.com/printArticle/124134 |work=[[Toronto Star]] |date=November 28, 2006 |access-date=October 19, 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091115200359/http://www.thestar.com/printArticle/124134 |archive-date=November 15, 2009 }}</ref> While in treatment, Gontier began writing lyrics for songs regarding how he felt and what he was going through in rehabilitation.<ref name="SOCAN 2007"/>

Gontier successfully completed treatment at CAMH.<ref name="The Star"/> The band found a place suitable for further songwriting in [[Northern Ontario]], in a cottage where they experimented on, tested, and practiced new songs.<ref name=msnbc>{{cite news|title=Three Days Grace Singer Feels the Pain|url=https://www.today.com/popculture/three-days-grace-singer-feels-pain-wbna13106824|website=[[Today (American TV program)|Today]]|publisher=[[The Associated Press|Associated Press]]|date=June 2, 2006|access-date=August 13, 2009}}</ref> After three months at the cottage, they had about finished what would be their second album.
