While on Dr. Phil, Brown revealed that he struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, medicating with marijuana, and using crystal meth in the past. "Just the influence and the demons that come with that drug kind of took over," he told Dr. Phil.

His substance abuse seemed to have majorly affected his clarity. Though Brown stated that he was four years sober, his friends told Dr. Phil that it was a lie. It was also noticeable when the actor began speaking about his children.
