Alec Balwin started doing press this week for his memoir Nevertheless and has opened up about his issues with alcohol and drug abuse, as well as his personal dramas.
“I think I was one of the people that was lucky that it stuck,” he said. “Not a lot of peple get sober when they’re young. I got sober when I was just about to turn 27, and those two years that I lived in that white hot period as a daily drug abuser, as a daily drinker — to my misery — boy, that was a tough time. It was really a lot of pain in there.”
Alec also touched on the infamous incident where he was caught on tape called his then 11-year-old daughter a “rude, thoughtless little pig.”
“It’s thrown in your face every day. There are people who admonish me, or attack me, and use that as a constant spearhead to do that. It’s a scab that never heals because it’s been picked at all the time by so many people. My daughter — that’s hurt her in a permanent way.”
