. “You’ve done the right thing seeking help — I’m thinking of you, my friend, and wishing you all the very best on your recovery. Looking forward to seeing you back at your best very soon.” He signed it, “Your pal, Tony.”
Metallica announced last week that it was postponing a run of Australasian dates while Hetfield sought treatment. “As most of you probably know, our brother James has been struggling with addiction on and off for many years,” the band’s other members — Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo, and Lars Ulrich — wrote in a joint statement. “He has now, unfortunately, had to re-enter a treatment program to work on his recovery again.
, he said he felt he was someone who could manage his compulsions but that others might have called him an addict. “I had a bash at doing a lot of coke, I must say,” he said, adding that he would sometimes do two or three grams a night. “I used to like doing coke, but then it went against me. It started making me feel worse rather than better. I got more paranoid. So I cut down and then I stopped.
