November 24, 2020 – Rather than getting mad at herself for going backward on her sobriety journey, Cyrus used the opportunity to figure out what caused the setback. “One of the things I’ve used is, ‘Don’t get furious, get curious,’” she said. “Don’t be mad at yourself, but ask yourself, ‘What happened?’ To me, it was a f*#k-up because I’m not a moderation person.” The singer went on to explain that while she doesn’t have a drinking problem, sobriety is important to her because she doesn’t like her mindset under the influence of alcohol and prefers to be fully present. “I don’t have a problem with drinking,” she said. “I have a problem with the decisions I make once I go past that level of [intoxication]. I’ve just been wanting to wake up 100 percent, 100 percent of the time.” “My mom was adopted, and I inherited some of the feelings she had, the abandonment feelings and wanting to prove that you’re wanted and valuable,” she explained. The singer also added that her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, basically raised himself after his parents divorced when he was three years old. “I did a lot of family history, which has a lot of addiction and mental health challenges,” she said. “… By understanding the past, we understand the present and the future much more clearly.”
