Dax Shepard during a panel for ABC's "Bless This Mess" in 2019.Dax Shepard, the comedic actor who has spoken candidly about his struggles with addiction, said on the latest episode of his popular interview podcast"Armchair Expert" that he is newly sober following a recent relapse.
The actor, known for his roles on"Parenthood" and"Bless This Mess," said that he had felt immense guilt about hiding"this enormous secret." He expressed regret for"gaslighting" his wife, actress Kristen Bell, and podcast co-host, Monica Padman, before he revealed to them what was going on. The episode is titled"Day 7," in honor of Shepard's seventh day of sobriety. He told Padman that he was still"very proud that I haven't drank [alcohol] or done cocaine in 16 years," and that he broke down crying when he opened up about his relapse at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting.
“I don’t resent celebrities who declare their recoveries in AA publicly, but I do think it’s a foolish thing to do. They position themselves as the representatives of AA, 1/2
A solid identity is important for good mental health. It's a shame that Mr. Shepard's parents did not give him a real first name.
🤦🏼♂️🤡
Who give a fuck. We all have problems. Difference is he has problems with money
dax 7.7 billion people nobody gives a sh====== eternal life Jesus freak
Good for him. Great to hear such news. Way to go, Dax.
One day at a time, good sir.

When you have an uncontrollable urge to pop a pain pill, chug a few spoonfuls of kratom.
Newly sober?
He is hanging out with the wrong crowd. He needs to distance himself from his enablers. People who hang around celebrities and get them whatever they want, mostly drugs and alcohol.
He was good in zatura.... 👀 I don't remember hi on anything else
It happens
🍀
Perhaps getting an actual first name might be the first step in his recovery.
This Cat is named after him.
So another millionaire with a drug problem, are we supposed to feel sorry for him? People do it every day with drugs go to work and are normal! Fuck him! But we are suppose to listen to these fucks! 🖕fuck your Dax!
Who fucking cares? This isn’t journalism. Stop acting like a tabloid NBC News!
Good for you

To be honest about your addiction takes so much heart to do. I hope he stays sober and keeps fighting the good fight
Hang in there.
I can't understand how people get addicted to opioids when I'd give anything to not have to take them.
Just watched him give Andy Dwyer a $400/week raise for Johnny Karate. Good on both accounts, daxshepard !
“Stars”: they’re just like us?
Let’s Go to Prison is crazy underrated.
I’ll drink to that, quitter
Yikes, only 7 comments after 30 min post.... and '7 mill' followers......... ok lol
.daxshepard Cheering you on brother!
Some day it's going to be found that the reason that opiod addiction is so hard to overcome is b/c when you use them you fuck with the body's natural pain receptors and R no longer able 2 produce enough dopamine thus the need to use. Get the meds U need Dax & don't beat urself up
Honest, brave, and open. He’s going to save lives.
He’s human
Great, don’t ever give up, no matter what happens
Prayers for you and family Dax. Blessings always. ML
I would drink if I was cucked as bad as him.
Stop making stupid people famous!!!
I’m so sick of actors expectations of sympathy because they can’t manage their lives. They have everything given to them and take it for granted. They then expect to capitalize on their addiction hoping for a big pay day while the average person ends up dead, in jail or ruined!
Good luck dawg!
gordonkeith this dude is doing good work for something you are passionate about
Good for him addiction is not an easy thing to overcome
