The actor opened up about his final season of the hit show: 'The only reason to stay was money.'
The former star of the hit USA series says he was struggling with depression and drinking too much during the seventh season, when his character Mike Ross was written out of the show with a concluded story.
“I wasn’t taking good care of my mental health and I was drinking too much the end of season seven,” Adams told Jesse Tyler Ferguson on Tuesday’s episode of thepodcast. “I was in a zone of living a pretty unexamined life. Pretty miserable I would say, pretty depressed. I didn’t have the tools to deal with that depression beyond just spending money and drinking too much, and not really knowing how to talk about it.“I would numb myself deal with my insecurity and my fears,” he added.
He continyed, “The only reason to stay was … money. I didn’t know what else to offer. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and think about the money made those last two years, but I never regretted the decision for a second. It was the right thing for my marriage … it was time.”, which is currently in the middle of Adams’ final season. The former USA Network show racked up 57.
Looking back at his performance today, Adams says, “Now, I am filled with so much compassion for myself … to be kinder to myself and realize how amazing this entire group of people were. When you’re in something, you don’t have time to really be in any kind of gratitude, to just sit there and go, ‘How cool is this?’ Or, at least, I didn’t as a young person, because I was so determined to get it right, do well and make the most out of it.
