VIDEOMichael J. Fox turned to alcohol after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and felt ”helpless.”
In a Wednesday appearance on Howard Stern’s show, the actor talked about how he coped with his life-altering health condition.
“My first reaction to it was to start drinking heavily… I used to drink to party, but then I was drinking alone to [self-medicate],” explained Fox, who then went into therapy.
The star also touched upon sex, “Family Ties,” and what it’s like to act out the symptoms of Parkinson’s on his new sitcom.
