Celebrity alcoholics?!


Question:

Celebrity alcoholics?


I realize this question may break the tradition of "anonymity" found in most recovery programs, but I know there are also several celebrities that pride themselves on their recovery.

Ok, I obviously left off the part of the question, "who are some".

Ok, I obviously left off the part of the question, "who are some". Mel Gibson held AA meetings on the set of "Braveheart", often delaying shooting. He had been a member for decades before his little spree.

Lisa Gay Hamilton. Richard Lewis. Aerosmith.

David Caruso had his NYPD Blue buddy, Kim Delaney hired on his new show, CSI:Miami after he found out she was now in AA. When she dropped out (still sober), he had her blackballed.

Anything that can be said about Robert Downey, Jr. can also be said about Lou Reed. And Gary Busey.

Yancy Butler. Judy Garland.

Toby Maguire joined AA before he could even legally drink. He was never an alcoholic, he just saw spending time in bars as a bad career move and didn't think he could stop going to bars on his own. Turned out he made contacts in the rooms.

Keith Urban. Lindsay Lohan. Haley Joel Osment.

Owen Wilson's recent suicide attempt has been rumored to have been over his inability to stay sober/clean. He's been a member for a few years now. Courtney Love called Owen's drug use "out of control". Woody Harrelson wanted to stage an intervention!

Some celebs get sober, but otherwise largely unaffected by the program, like Stephen King.

Liz Taylor. Dick Van Dyke. Tom Sizemore.

I'm not outing anyone, all these people have outed themselves. AA frowns on it because MOST will relapse and only call attention to the failures in the program.

95% of people who join will drop out within the first year.

http://www.orange-papers.org/orange-effe... You're right - it breaks anonymity. Yes they have all recovered and now work for the
salvation army serving the unfortunate lost
alcoholics and burning crosses on front porches.
Needle and spoon please.........! How can it, you're not naming anyone? Yes. Some even publicize the fact that they are alcoholics, like they are so proud of that!
