Cara Delevingne offered encouragement to substance abusers after she completed a 12-step program
The Only Murders in the Building alum, 31, began a 12-step rehab program in the summer of 2022. She hopes her recovery can inspire others to also turn their lives around.
Delevingne first opened up about her recovery in March 2023 in a cover story for Vogue. She recalled how her alcohol abuse began at a family wedding when she was just seven years old. At age 10, she was prescribed sleeping pills to manage insomnia. She was also diagnosed with dyspraxia, a disorder that affects movement and coordination. “This was the beginning of mental health issues and inadvertent self-harm,” she remembered. At 15, Delevingne suffered a breakdown.
“There’s an element of feeling invincible when I’m on drugs,” she said. “I put myself in danger in those moments because I don’t care about my life.”“I think that’s what I’ve always done with anything in this business,” she told Variety at Monday’s Met Gala. “Whether it’s been being vocal about anxiety, depression, recovery, anything, it’s just you owe it to people to talk about your struggles, because being in this world is not perfect. No one is perfect.
