Justin Bieber says his drug addiction was so bad he felt like he was ‘dying’
JUSTIN Bieber has revealed his drug addiction was so bad he felt like he was “dying”.
The pop star, 25, said he would smoke weed and pop pills as soon as he woke up.
He told how he was dependent on cannabis at 13 – and later took other drugs including a codeine-based cocktail plus MDMA and mushrooms.
The Canadian said: “My security were coming in at night to check my pulse.
"People don’t know how serious it got.
"It was legit crazy, scary.”
Justin said he stopped as he feared he would die.
His doctor Daniel Amen says “he was a wreck” when he first met Justin in 2014.
Justin's recovery routine now includes an oxygen chamber in the studio to deal with anxiety.
He added on the YouTube documentary: “Anti-depressants help me get out of bed.”
