Overview
- Faris told Chelsea Handler on the Dear Chelsea podcast on Aug. 20 that she has stopped drinking and called sobriety “one of the many gifts.”
- She said she noticed a personal connection between drinking and depression and that she “had to take a step back” to stop self-sabotaging.
- Faris also said she began using a hormone patch and that the treatment “made a huge difference” in how she felt.
- The revelations come as Faris has returned to the Scary Movie franchise and promoted the new film Spa Weekend and follow her June comments that she left the sitcom Mom early because of the show’s intensity.
- She did not specify when she quit drinking or give further details about her sobriety and mental-health care, a gap that leaves public questions about timing despite widespread media attention.
