OLD HABITS DIE HARD: TEDDY STONE TURNS BACK TO DRUGS

A champion for mental health transparency, Teddy Stone has never shied away from discussing his own anxiety-fuelled past. Shooting to fame at an exponential rate and at a young age triggered bouts of stage fright prior to performing. To cope, the popstar turned to drugs.

In interviews, Stone has spoken openly of his experience with narcotics, and while he has never denied that he experimented with them during a challenging time in his life, he has always insisted that they were not the answer to his mental health struggles.

However, it appears that the real answer—regular and committed therapy sessions—has not helped Stone as much as he claims. Exclusive sources have confirmed that the singer reacquainted himself with drugs during his recent global tour, citing that the intensity of back-to-back concerts, coupled with continuous travel, took a toll on his stamina, passion, and anxiety.

It begs the question: is Stone as transparent as he claims to be?

Kicking a drug habit is something to be celebrated. Lying about it to millions of young fans, who may or may not relate to his well-documented mental health struggles, is not.
