Tommy Lee is celebrating one year of sobriety. But for a long time, he used to drink TWO GALLONS of vodka a day.
He says, quote, "Alcohol's such [an effin'] weird one . . . It's easy to fall in love with, the way it makes you feel, the way it makes you relax, and then all of a sudden you're, like, '[Eff]! I'm drinking two gallons of vodka a day?' . . .
"You're trying to kill yourself now. Your liver is on crutches at that point; it's just barely functioning."
Tommy recently had a full body scan to check his health. He says he pinches himself on a daily basis because the doctor said everything looked good, despite years of alcohol and drug abuse.
