The Script's Danny O'Donoghue gets brutally honest about grief, PTSD, and what it really took to get sober. Following the devastating loss of his bandmate and best friend Mark Sheehan, Danny opens up about hitting rock bottom over a dark Christmas in Dublin and the brutal reality of quitting it all cold turkey.
This discussion tracks the rollercoaster of Danny's career, from a failed €15 million record deal at 16 to sobbing on his knees when they finally hit number one. He also shares the lightbulb moment of a dyslexia diagnosis at 43, which reframed a lifetime of anxiety and fear.
It's a testament to perseverance and a beautiful look at finding collective truth through our darkest moments.
This episode covers the following themes: Grief, Addiction, Rejection, Anxiety, Recovery
