I think in this day and age when the opioid crisis is what it is — it’s the number-one killer of men under the age of 50, it’s actually lowered the life expectancy of Americans now — I think people need to be more open about, ‘Hey there is a solution to this problem. It might not be the only solution but there is one out there.’ ” Read More Related Articles Afterward, he humbly detailed many of his successes and failures over the last two decades, from meeting “some of the most interesting people alive” and becoming “a cop and an EMT” to creating (and subsequently losing) “tons of tv shows.”
Ozzy: I didn’t give a shit, because I was loaded. It’s a very selfish disease. You don’t think about it because you’re loaded, in an altered state. How hard is it to get sober in the public spotlight? Louise told the Sunday Mercury: “We want to put it behind us and move on with our lives. I don’t really want to comment any further.” Read More Related Articles He revealed to People: “It’s a part of my life. I got sober at 17 and … it’s a long time. I chose to kind of commit myself to living life sober. I have gained literally hundreds of hours of time over the last year; where before I would spend my evenings drunk and my mornings in a fog of headache and nausea, now I go to bed early with crime novels or lengthy world war tomes about double-crossing agents, cold cases, or other similar genres. Ozzy: All I can say is, I’m 72 years of age. Most of the people that I drank with are dead. And the ones that aren’t, that still continue to drink, are going to be dead soon. It’s not a happy ending. If you want to carry on drinking, my hat goes off to you. Sharon, did you ever think that Ozzy would get it?He has posted about addiction and his road to recovery and every day is adamant he’s another day clean. His behaviour is bizarre, he’s literally just on a live dancing and not looking too well! He did posts in the week begging someone to send him money so he could buy electricity even though he’d also said that he lived witn parents and people were questioning lights being on etc. the posts were very erratic and he was saying how if people don’t send him money then he will stop doing Tik toks… hun no one asked you to do them!! Sharon: Initially I thought the first, maybe up to the fourth or fifth time he went into rehab, I thought, “It will work. He’ll get it this time. This time I know he’s got it.” And then after about the fifth time I’m like, “He’s never going to get it.” And you just accept it. That’s the way it’s going to be. Sharon: I knew nothing about alcoholism. Nothing. I had worked with a lot of musicians, a lot of actors. And I just thought that’s how people are when they drink. I just thought, “OK. They just like to drink.” That was it. I understood nothing about the “-ism.” And when did you learn about the “-ism”? I made it my mission to “grow up and show up”, having previously had a reputation for being flaky, late and unreliable. I am a better mother for my sobriety – making all of my son’s school plays, assemblies and meetings in the last year. We spend far more quality time together now, and the little boy who was at times anxious, awkward and painfully shy is flourishing under the warmth of genuine maternal attention and time spent doing not much at all. I always feared motherhood; growing up in a household where foster children came and went in a revolving door of trauma and disarray, I was continually petrified that I would never be able to be a proper mother to my son. Ozzy’s eldest son from his first marriage to Thelma Riley became a DJ in Ibiza and had his own record label with his actress wife Louise.
Ozzy: The thing is, people call it a disease, but if you had cancer, people wouldn’t climb over trees and take a photo of you in your bed. Yet they do when you’re in rehab. What do you say to musicians who are struggling but think it’s the only way? Aged 16 she moved out and her sister Kelly said in a podcast in 2021: "We're just really different. She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her." Sharon Osbourne goes ‘at least three days a week’ without eating after 30-pound Ozempic weight loss

Ozzy: She said to me, “I found this place where they teach you to drink properly. It’s called the Betty Ford Center.” And I went, “That’s it. I’ve been doing it wrong.” I’m hoping this is okay to post I haven’t started a thread properly before but I can’t see anything for this guy which is strange I thought there would be threads for him Addiction issues hit Kelly hard as she revealed she became dependant on opioid painkiller Vicodin aged 13 after she had her tonsils taken out. She was also heavily fat shamed and progressed to heroin and would mix it up with amphetamines, tranquillisers, cannabis and alcohol at her worst.
