"Jeremy and I are parallel in a lot of ways," he says. "I've been in AA for a while, and I'm sober now. He's gone through a lot of struggles with overcoming addiction and finding himself through that -- really becoming himself -- which is something I've gone through personally. There are a lot of times that playing Jeremy feels really therapeutic for me."

I knew he was a party-boy but I didn't know that. Anyway, I'm glad he's doing well =)

I had no idea.

wow

I didn't know. I think that is really interesting. I bet that it does help him play Jeremy. Because he knows what he is going through since he did it himself.

good for him!

OMG what a joke! Seriously Hollywood kids party a couple of times and then suddenly they are addicts and go to rehab! Not being funny but look at uni and people in their 20's generally! If he couldnt go a minute without alcohol and this had gone on for years then yeah ok, but i cant see at his age him having gone through actual addiction!

^^ Addiction can affect people of any age.

Wow indeed...
