Although most people are familiar with Matthew Perry through his hit role as Chandler Bing in Friends, many do not know that he had been candidly speaking about his struggles with alcohol and substance abuse.

When the show was at its prime, Perry often faced challenges requiring treatment. His unstable weight at the time reflected his struggles.

"You can't have a drug problem for 30 years and then expect to have it be solved in 28 days," Perry once said.

He has always served as a speaker for awareness about drugs and helped people who have gone through similar situations.
