Robert Downey Jr. was arrested multiple times on drug-related charges over the span of a few years in the late 90s. He later spent time at the California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison and has focused on staying sober since.
"Job one is get out of that cave," he told Vanity Fair in 2014. "A lot of people do get out but don't change. So the thing is to get out and recognize the significance of that aggressive denial of your fate, come through the crucible forged into a stronger metal."
Demi Lovato openly speaks about her sobriety.

Demi Lovato celebrated six years of sobriety at one of her concerts in March 2018.
"Six years ago, I was drinking vodka out of a Sprite bottle at nine in the morning, throwing up in the car," Lovato told the crowd at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, according to Time. "So, I took a look at my life and I said, 'Something has to change, I've got to get sober.' So, I did."
The singer is unafraid to talk about her struggles with addiction and her mental illness.
