A source tells PEOPLE that the father of three is 'committed to getting better' despite being 'chased' out of a recovery center by tabloids
According to the source, Disick is currently "not in the dire straits he was in a couple of years back," but still "needs help."
"He needs a lot of healing," the source says. "He's in a lot of pain, and he's drifting right now. He wants to be the man and the father he was created to be, but he's falling very short right now. So he's been taking care of that. He needed help. And it's really unfortunate that he was chased out of rehab like he was."According to the source, there are still "some addictive behaviors" that Disick "needs to beat.
"He needs more than just counseling," says the source. "Scott will be the first person to tell you that he's got anand that he has trouble managing some of his demons. So he needed some professional help, which included rehab. It was 100 percent the right decision for him, and I wish he were still there. He needs some help making sure that his addictive personality doesn't get the better of him.""His family couldn't possibly be any more supportive of him.
Disick has not publicly commented on the news, but his attorney Marty Singer denied reports that the star entered treatment because of cocaine and alcohol. "In an effort to finally come to terms and deal with the pain that Scott has been silently suffering for many years due to the sudden death of his mother, followed by the death of his father 3 months later, Scott made the decision to check himself into a rehab facility last week to work on his past traumas. He did not check in for any alcohol or cocaine abuse," Singer said in a statement to PEOPLE on Monday.
