VIDEO – THAT IS THE QUESTION –
July 11, 2023 – Tom Holland reevaluated his relationship with alcohol after he was struggling to abstain from drinking for a month.
“I was definitely addicted to alcohol, not shying away from that at all,” the actor, 27, revealed on the July 10 episode of “On Purpose with Jay Shetty.”
“The Crowded Room” star challenged himself to “dry January” in 2022, giving up alcohol after a boozy holiday season. During that month, Holland said, “All I could think about was having a drink … I was waking up thinking about it. I was checking the clock, when’s it 12 p.m.?””It just really scared me,” he admitted. Holland proceeded to “punish” himself with another month sober and ultimately challenged himself to quit drinking until his birthday on June 1, 2022.
“By the time I got to June 1, I was the happiest I’ve ever been in my life,” he recalled. “I could sleep better. I could handle problems better, things that would go wrong on set, that would normally set me off, I could take in my stride. I had so much better mental clarity. I felt healthier, I felt fitter.”
