I just wanted to feel something.
I've always been a drug addict and an alcoholic.
It wasn't like this one event made me this thing.
I was an alcoholic and drug addict when I was born.
And long before I ever picked up a drink, I've always needed more than anybody else in every capacity.
Everybody else has this plan for living that I'm not aware of.
And I always felt like on the outside looking in.
Like if you and I were kids and I was at your house and we were on your couch watching TV, I would spend that entire time trying to convince you that we were having a good time on your couch watching TV.
Like I was just needy.
Desperation's got a very distinct scent and I stunk.
Yeah.
So I, I quit drinking 1998 and then I used drugs alcoholically.
I'm a big pill guy.
I love pills.
So it was like Viking and Norco.
And then when I stopped that a couple of times and then Adderall is the one that brought down the beast.
And, um,
So the divorce didn't make me use, I chose to go back to using drugs.
I felt like I was, I like having a secret, like I'm getting away with something.
In the middle of the pandemic was fantastic.
