Steven Tyler Addresses Rehab Graduates About Addiction
. The Aerosmith frontman made the comments during a talk with graduates of a rehabilitation program in Maui, revealing that his appearance made him feel nervous because he had no option but to be honest with fellow addiction victims. Tyler said (via Billboard): "I'm telling you all my truth. I am a drug addict and alcoholic, and fighting it every day. I had it all; I didn't care. I hurt my family and my children and my friends. If it wasn't for AA I would have nothing. If you stop going to AA meetings you're going to wind up using again. I express my joy all because of AA." The singer recalled how he'd started experimenting with drugs in 1964, and, 20 years later, he weighed 126 pounds and was "shooting cocaine" when he entered rehab for the first time. "They weren't rehabs," he corrected. "They were mental institutions - people that sat next to me had dribble bibs." Read more here.
