The actor who played Chandler Bing in the immensely popular TV programme “Friends” revealed in a recent conversation that he was already struggling with addiction when he was chosen for the part, but that as the show continued and gained more and more popularity, things only got worse.

The physiological negative effects of substance misuse were amply depicted in the show, according to Matthew Perry, which is precisely why he would be unable to watch it back. Further, he said that he was consuming 55 Vicodin per day, measured 128 pounds, and appeared on Friends, which has a viewership of 30 million, and that his extreme thinness prevented him from watching the show.

He also admitted that he was severely hooked on narcotics and drinking, and that he could tell from the way he looked from one season to the next. The fact that he would see that while viewing the series is the reason he doesn’t want to watch it.

Matthew Perry admitted to having problems with drugs but claimed that he’d never use drugs or drink on set and that he had a policy against it.

He was excessively respectful to the five coworkers he was doing the job with. As a result, he never got drunk at the workplace.

That didn’t imply that, even after a long night of drinking, he wouldn’t work. He recalled one particular day when he was so intoxicated when he arrived at work that at one moment he had to move rapidly from the bookshelf to the table while placing his palm on the table to keep from trembling. He reached the conclusion that it was that awful.

Matthew Perry visited treatment 15 times over the years as a result of his addiction. He used opioids until he was 49, at which point his colon burst, necessitating a five-month hospitalisation, 2 weeks in a coma, and 9 months of colostomy bag usage.

Regarding his memoir, Matthew expressed the hope that it would assist other people who’d been dealing with addiction. To write it all down, he said, he would have to wait until he was fairly properly sober and free from the ongoing disease of addiction and alcoholism. The most crucial component was his fervent belief that it would benefit many.
