WATCH – RIGOROUS HONESTY –
June 30, 2021 – Before posting the full video, Burke shared a teaser on Instagram. “To say that my sobriety has been easy would be a lie. I’ve decided to make sure I hold myself accountable by sharing with you how hard it has been to maintain my sobriety,” she wrote in the caption.
In the full video, Burke said she quit drinking nearly three years ago, calling it a “huge turning point” in her life. And part of staying sober for her is being open and honest with her fans. “I’m here to confess that lately staying sober has been a little bit of a challenge for me,” she explained in the video. “And recently I’ve been thinking a lot about drinking again. I decided to hold myself by confessing my anxious feelings.”
Rather than going to an inpatient facility or using a 12-step program, Burke says she decided to become sober with the help of a therapist she’s worked closely with over the last decade. But now she’s considering facing her anxiety and entering a 12-step program.
