Eminem Celebrates 11 Years Of Sobriety

5 Grand

Old School Godfather
It doesn't surprise anyone to learn that Eminem once struggled with drug addiction. His childhood wasn't exactly health-promoting.

Eminem's father left while he was still an infant, while the mother struggled with mental illness herself. The family moved a lot, inevitably making Eminem feel like an outcast.

Eventually, he found himself in rap music. 8 Mile changed his life but not into better.

Troubled family life, excessive media scrutiny and the pressures of being a rap star made Eminem look for comfort among drugs.

And they nearly killed him.

A methadone overdose made Eminem seriously reconsider his options.

In his 2017 album, Revival, Eminem opened up about the day he almost died and how his children helped him stay sober.

Last Saturday, Eminem shared a photo of himself holding an eleven-years chip to celebrate his sobriety.

Read on to find out more about his near-fatal overdose, why people kept stealing his things at the rehab center, and how he managed to turn his addiction to drugs into an addiction to running.
