Sam GreenwoodLuciano has for a long time been a huge name in electronic music and the Chilean-Swiss DJ has taken to social media to share about his battle with addiction in the wake of the death of Avicii.
The DJ recently came out via Facebook to go into detail about a 22 year long battle with addiction that he had previously kept hidden. After checking into a Thai rehab center over a year ago, the producer hopes to use his platform as a means to make it easier for others to speak about their struggles with addiction.
He goes into detail about how he would be taking numerous pills to wake up, get through the day and then eventually to sleep and calm down, all of which culminated into quite a sizeable problem for the DJ over the years, especially when he ‘lived in shame’ of his secret lifestyle.
After warnings from doctors that he would die if his unhealthy lifestyle continued, the DJ said that he could entirely relate to Avicii’s tragic passing. Read the statement in full below and make sure to join our Facebook group to follow the ongoing discussion here.
