Noah Cyrus Reflects on Overcoming 'Dark' Xanax Addiction
In fact, the singer recalled having easy access to the medication—which is used to treat anxiety and panic disorders—during that time. "I was surrounded by people who were easily able to get it by buying it from people," she said, adding that a few of her friends "kind of cosigned" her drug abuse. Noah, who said she would sleep all day and wake up sometimes as late as 8 p.m., said, "It just kind of becomes this dark pit, bottomless pit.
Noah's substance abuse, as she recalled, reached an alarming moment during the height of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020. During an international television interview , the "July" singer said she began passing out mid-conversation."I was completely nodding off and falling asleep," she shared. "And unable to keep my head up or keep my eyes open, because I was so far gone.
However, after getting the help she needed almost two years ago, she's been "slowly wading back into the creative process," which includes her LP, slated for a July 15 release. "I was being helped by everybody that I needed help from," Noah said of her first few months in recovery. "And it took some time to get on my own two feet."
Noah explained that she made the decision to open up about her circumstances so she can help her fans who may be going through a similar situation. "I'm not trying to be, like, any spokesperson for recovery or anything like that," she shared. "I, myself, am just going through it and figuring it out."
And with Noah, who credits her process to hours of therapy and psychiatry, she's able to see the glimmer of hope. "I wake up in the mornings, and I'm able to look in a mirror and go on about my day without hating myself," she said. "I'm able to comfort myself and nurture myself."
