Josh Brolin thinks he has "more fun" now he's sober.
Josh Brolin has been sober since 2013
The 56-year-old actor has been sober from alcohol since 2013, and Josh admits that it's changed his life for the better.
He told The Sunday Times newspaper: "I love being sober. I have more fun.
"There’s nothing that I go through that I am absolutely certain wouldn’t be worse if I was drinking."
Josh had a reckoning in 2013, when he woke up on the street after being involved in a fight at a fast food drive-through in Santa Monica.
The actor decided there and then that he needed to quit drinking forever.
He shared: "I knew that was going to be the last time I drank."
Josh subsequently joined Alcoholics Anonymous and he hasn't looked back since then.
The Hollywood star said: "I like getting older. It’s like a great excuse to finally go, ‘OK, just mellow out, you don’t need to constantly spin.'"
Josh previously admitted that he was on a "destructive path" amid his drinking woes.
The actor recognised that he needed to "change and mature" when his mom became unwell.
Josh - who first found fame as a child, when he starred in the hit movie 'The Goonies' - told the Guardian newspaper: "It was another turning point.
"It made me think of a lot of things. My mom dying when I was in my 20s. All the impact that had on me that I hadn’t moved past; I was always such a mama’s boy. But I realised that I was on a destructive path. I knew that I had to change and mature. It was like I stepped back and saw the hamster wheel.”
