I think for me it was medication when I got out of work.
I had loads of PTSD the first time I was on the podcast.
We talked a little bit about it.
And then afterwards, you gave me some names of some people that you talked to.
I went out and looked out for help.
Eventually, I just got sober.
But it's insane to me how differently alcohol gets treated versus all other substances.
What's one of the only ones that if you get off it too quick, you'll die?
Which I did research about.
Did you get real close to that?
I had to... I started feeling my heart...
Um, when, when I left the studio the last time it was, you're still in LA.
My marriage ended around that same time.
And I had a few things going on, PTSD and trying to figure things out and drinking myself to sleep every third day because it's the only way I can go through a dreamless night was unsustainable.
So my life was falling apart and I had to like do something.
