Ben Affleck revealed on Tuesday that he had completed treatment for alcoholism in order to be “the best father I can be.” However, his history with addiction goes back much further. According to Entertainment Tonight, the 44-year-old actor’s experience with alcoholism began as a child, watching his own father, Timothy, battle the disease. Affleck has remained selective in speaking about his struggles with sobriety. However, he has opened up on several occasions about his past with alcoholism, from his family’s cycle of addiction, to his 2001 rehab stint, to his recent recovery. Though he considered his childhood difficult, Affleck says it was his friend, Matt Damon, and brother, Casey, that helped him deal with his father’s alcoholism and parent’s divorce.
