Ben Affleck reveals the honest truth about getting sober, why rehabs and traditional fixes don't always work, and what it actually takes to overcome addiction. "The cure for addiction, the only cure, is suffering. You suffer enough that something inside you goes, 'I'm done.'" "At the beginning, it's very, very hard. It's a 10. You start off because you're in the habit of doing this, whatever it is in compulsive behavior." "You can win 1,000 times, you only have to give in once.

So it's the easiest thing in the world." "Now I'm that asshole who's like, 'You know, I'm grateful. I got to be a better person through this process, and I've lost the obsession.'"
