  • A few months ago, Dax Shepard revealed he had relapsed following 16 years of sobriety. He told Ellen he initially didn't want to go public with it at all, but shared what his friend said that made him change his mind. The actor also explained why he has to keep some common household items locked away in a bathroom safe, and showed off an impressive medal wife Kristen Bell gave him in recognition of his toned physique.

    He is a solid dude. And I think going public with his relapse speaks to his integrity. Good man.

    I so appreciate how honest and forthcoming he is about his relapse. His friend is right: Knowing that someone famous also stumbles and struggles can mean everything. :)

      As someone that's in recovery myself, I can say that that level of honesty and transparency is pretty much everything. So proud of him.

    I can’t imagine how difficult it is for recovering opioid addicts needing to have surgery and severe pain and trying to cope with pain without medication. Or taking the medication and relapsing! 🙏🏻

      Yeah! My thought too. I thought Dax did the right, honest and helpful thing by sharing his relapse. Can you imagine the blowback if he kept presenting himself as consistently sober and it came out that he had a relapse didn’t tell his followers? In being open he not only helps people but maintains his integrity.

    Dax, good for you for having the courage to go public with your relapse. It's never easy getting all
    vulnerable and honest with yourself, let alone while millions are watching, but you are setting the example for yourself kids to live an honest, clean lifestyle, so keep it up. 7.5 years sober...best thing I've ever done, but I have little addictions, dark chocolate chips lately...we all have demons. Thank you, Ellen, and sounds like it's your birthday, so happy happy birthday to you...may you also continue to shine your light in the darkest of times.

I don't know... just wanted to share... Love to everyone... specially YOU!
