    It's Amazing to see someone who took ownership of his issues and awareness of himself to realize he needed to change and now is so much happier because of the clarity he has. It's the worst when someone doesn't want to realize or admit they have an issue and it's like "i smoke every day so what.." ... And don't see the issue

    I hope, when people see A Star Is Born, that they realize that nothing good ever comes out of any kind of addiction. I'm so glad Bradley got sober in his own life....I've personally lived in a family, or married people with alcohol & drug addictions. It ruins everything, and saddens everyone around you. If you are an addict to anything, I don't care what, please take ownership of your poor choices, and seek help, and accountability partners to help keep you straight.....you have to WANT to be free of "it", or it's not going to happen. Your life is valuable and meaningful....there IS help out there for you.....don't give up.

      I somewhat agree but addiction is never a ‘choice’. Like Bradley said he is obsessive. I am obsessive. That trait leads to Things that can get out of control that for normal People is no big deal. My grandfather was an alcoholic. It is genetic. My father could have gotten that gene. ‘A star is born’
      Was so powerful BECAUSE Bradley has been through it himself. He knows what those feelings of obsession,
      Addiction, and depression feel like. You can’t put a finger on the pulse of despair like he did if he hadn’t been through it himself. Also, Jackson DID try to get help, but when mental illness is also a factor and you’ve got voices in your ear like he did, it’s a lot harder to pull yourself together.

    So happy for him & his success but let's come down to reality a bit. He made it seem (very much unintentional) that one day he stopped drinking & everything was great. First off, if you are a hard core alcoholic as in drinking 6 or more drinks per day for 7 days a week for over 6 months, DO NOT go cold turkey (aka just stop drinking) you can suffer a number of symptoms most notably seizures in which you can die from.
    Seek medical attention & don't be embarrassed, they've heard it all including more worse stories than your own. The medical professional will likely give you a benzo/sedative (like Librium) and have you go to rehab center. There you can detox properly & overcome the issues causing your addiction which are almost always mental issues from past traumas.
