It's not like I have great willpower.

It's not like I'm like, I want to drink.

I really want to go do coke.

I mean, I know it was a spiritual solution.

What does that mean?

What it means is that my desire to do that stuff got taken away.

I mean, whatever.

I feel like sort of like this isn't the perfect environment to talk about it, but like... It's never a good time to talk about a spiritual solution.

That's my point.

You'll only mock it.

Well, I just... I mean, I'm entirely serious about this.

That basically like...

I was someone who could not leave my house without ingesting vats of cocaine.

Like, I certainly couldn't go to a party.

I also smoked.

I smoked a pack and a half of cigarettes a day.

And, like, I needed these things in order to be among people or even just to be with myself.

And when I sort of went into recovery and started following what these people told me to do, my desire to do that stuff disappeared.

Just went away.

Like, literally, I woke up, I don't want to do it anymore.
