He says the ordeal was a result of his bipolar disorder and a cocktail of prescription and non-prescription drugs and that he's taking his recovery one day at a time.

And once he's back to full health, Stapp hopes to work with Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall and Scott Phillips in Creed. He tells Rolling Stone: "I recently ran into those guys, totally not planned at the Hard Rock Hotel in Orlando. I was taking my son and my wife down to the pool.

"We ended up hanging out by the pool for three hours, just talking and catching up with our families together. Right at that moment, the relationships began to have a new organic-ness. We've stayed in communication since then. I know that Mark and the guys have a lot going on, as well as I do.
