Josh Brolin marks 5 years of sobriety with drunk photo

Josh Brolin is celebrating five years of sobriety with a dark look into his past.

The 50-year-old actor shared a photo from when he was inebriated and captioned it with vivid details of what his hangovers would be like before he gave up drinking alcohol.

“Drunk: when you think you’re having a rip roaring time and the next morning you wake up and your brain has broken into a frenzied beehive and your body is shattered shards of sharp glass desperately searching for what fits where and your spirit is being eaten by worms with great white bloodied teeth and your heart has shriveled into a black prune churning your intestines to the point where dysentery feels attractive,” Brolin wrote alongside the photo.

“… You can’t remember anything you did so you roll out of bed over last night’s urine and you dial your best friend’s phone number because you recall him lifting you over his head, your whole self, before you hit and broke through the drywall and, you think, a large aquarium and the phone on the other end rings and he picks it up, that clambering for a phone, the clumsiness of a hardline, and you say: ‘What did I do last night?!’ and he answers, after a great pause: ‘…Dude…’. #5years.”

In the five years since getting sober and divorcing Diane Lane, Brolin has quit smoking, gotten remarried to his former assistant, Kathryn Boyd, and welcomed a baby girl.
