Brad Pitt talked about his time as an addict: “The truth is that my alcohol tolerance could knock out a Russian, even when drinking his own vodka. I was a professional. I was so good at drinking That’s the level.

But I drank too much. It becomes a problem. I’m really happy because I’ve been sober for half a year. It’s a feeling that’s both sweet and bitter, and now I have feeling back in my fingertips.”

The actor shared more about how he got rid of his own wine brand that he once collaborated with Angelina: “We had a wine factory. I really liked wine. But now I’ve got rid of that factory.” I have to stop drinking for a while.

I can’t remember a day since I left college that I didn’t drink alcohol or smoke drugs or something. I mean, since I got married, I’ve stopped everything, except drinking.”

Regretting what had broken up his family, Brad said bitterly: “I won the lottery and still waste my time on meaningless things.” He believes that this incident was caused by himself and Brad is sad for his marriage like he is sad because something has died.

Brad said that now after his divorce, he replaced drinking with psychotherapy sessions: “I really like it. I went through treatment with two doctors before finding the most suitable one.” . His favorite drinks currently are cranberry juice and carbonated mineral water.

Besides confessing that his alcohol addiction caused problems in his relationship with Angelina, Brad also said that he spent too much time filming, so he couldn’t be near his children.

“I’m someone who let my job keep me away from my family. Children are very sensitive. They always need to absorb everything.

They need to be held by the hand and taught about everything around them. They need to be listened to. When I’m busy with work, I can’t listen to them. I need to improve this.”

Brad said he felt “stupid” emotionally and had not found a way to express his feelings for his children: “The divorce hit me right in the face. I need to live for the children more. I have to show them.”

After the divorce, Brad slept on the floor of a friend’s house for 6 weeks while coping with the pain of loss: “At first, I was too sad to stay at home, so I went to stay at a friend’s house. 

a small wooden house in Santa Monica. My friend David Fincher lived there and was always ready to open the door. I slept on the floor of my friend’s house for about a month and a half.”

When Angelina filed for divorce, Brad was also investigated by the FBI on suspicion of abusing his son Maddox, making it difficult for the actor to approach his children.

 He shared: “After that incident, we worked together to solve the problem. We both tried our best. I heard a lawyer say: ‘No one wins in court. We lose each other in everything. is the one who gets hurt more’ . And that seems to be true.

You spend a year focusing on proving yourself right and the other person wrong, it only makes the hate pile up. I do not want that. 

And luckily my partner agrees. The sudden separation of the family has a great impact on the children.”

He shared more about his worries for his children after the divorce: “About this divorce, I worry more about my children.

They have to become a topic of discussion because of the divorce, and you Their friends will have the wrong idea. The divorce will not be reported honestly or lightly.

Because the most sensational news always sells, and that is what my children are accused of. Come in, it makes me sick.”

After all, what Brad worries about most is his children
