"Well, all I can say is, it's a day-by-day program, and so I'm very worried about relapsing, but I don't know. I don't want to use. I don't want to go back to that place because nothing good came of it. It was super dark; it's not nice"
About this Quote
The most revealing move is the repeated “I don’t know.” In a media ecosystem that rewards certainty and confession-as-content, uncertainty reads as credibility. He isn’t performing insight; he’s naming the instability that comes with craving, fear, and the brain’s talent for bargaining. “Very worried about relapsing” is a blunt admission of risk, not a teaser for scandal. It refuses the fantasy that willpower alone seals the deal.
Then he draws a boundary with language that’s deliberately unglamorous: “nothing good came of it,” “super dark,” “it’s not nice.” The simplicity matters. Addiction stories often get stylized into chaos-with-a-soundtrack; he strips it down to a bad place with no upside. As a celebrity, he’s implicitly pushing against the myth that money, access, or notoriety can soften the emotional hangover. The intent isn’t inspiration. It’s self-defense, spoken out loud, as if saying it makes it harder to go back.
