Cocaine is God's way of telling you you are making too much money.
As an alcoholic, you will violate your standards quicker than you can lower them.
"It's just literally being afraid. And you think, oh, [the alcohol] will ease the fear. And it doesn't." What was he afraid of? "Everything. It's just a general all-round arggghhh. It's fearfulness and anxiety." He added, "For that first week you lie to yourself, and tell yourself you can stop, and then your body kicks back and says, no, stop later. And then it took about three years, and finally you do stop."
It's that idea that you can have one drink - and no you can't. Within a week I was drinking heavily. It was so quick that even I was like, 'Wow.'
Cocaine for me was a place to hide. Most people get hyper on coke. It slowed me down. Sometimes it made me paranoid and impotent, but mostly it just made me withdrawn.
It was kind of a decompression - from straight alcohol to mixed drinks to wine to spritzers - and then you're out.
I had to stop drinking alcohol, because I used to wake up nude in front of my car with my keys in my ass.
