I shouldn’t be doing that, he recalled thinking.

I will then respond, “Well, that’s fine!” You frequently engage in that! You constantly take it! No, I don’t, I’ll say when I eventually open my eyes. I was at first terrified by [the voices]. They are now just funny.

To avoid coming across triggers, Goodman stated, “I want to keep going to locations where there is good reinforcement. Because, if I truly wanted to, I don’t think anything on God’s green Earth could keep me from drinking.

He also acknowledged that his drinking was impacted by the “constant dread of unemployment” that comes with being an actor.

All it is is alcohol. He admitted to having a drinking problem. I would continue to drink. Finding any defense is part of being an alcoholic. Nevertheless, my life has been stressful and unpleasant.

I was squandering my energy and hurting myself more than anything else. All I need to do is maintain my composure, acknowledge that there will be queues, and develop patience.

Along with this constant struggle, he was also plagued by a crippling depression every day.

“A physiological thing, a brain thing… [a sense of] overall discontent with everything,” was how he put it. Nothing looks to be in the right, thus I don’t want to take any action. I have no interest in anything, even if I should be doing something else. It’s just ridiculous.

Goodman, who has been married to Anna Beth Hartzog since 1989, assisted him in 2007 in establishing a healthy lifestyle.
