John Goodman Opens up about Alcoholism and Depression

He’s a Good Man –

September 22, 2019 – Around the time of the interview, Goodman’s depression wasn’t much of an issue thanks to a preoccupation with work and exercise. When the “Roseanne” reboot got canceled in 2018, though, it reared its ugly head again. The damage was done, however. ABC canceled the spinoff, triggering a bout of depression for Goodman. He told London’s Sunday Times that he went through a month of depression from the move. Goodman referred to himself as “a depressive,” and explained that he tends to use any excuse to lower himself. These days, his role on “The Conners” should be a help for the depression, but only Goodman himself can say. In 2018, Goodman revealed that his wife was the one who sent him to a treatment center which ultimately led to a new life of sobriety. Undoubtedly, she has a place in his mental battles as well. Goodman also finds relief and comfort in the fact that his daughter Molly did not inherit his love of acting. Instead, she found a passion in producing and works as a television production assistant. We hope that Goodman will continue to focus on his wife and daughter and the tons of fans who love him.
