The actor again took the path of self-destruction. Despite a romantic relationship with Lindsay Shukus and meeting with children from a marriage with Jennifer Garner, he can often be seen in the company of strong alcoholic beverages and, according to insiders, of narcotic drugs. Thanks to the support of friends and Shukus, he decided on a "regular" course of treatment and asked for help in a specialized clinic.
Recall that the problems with alcohol began in the 2000s, after that he several times passed individual programs and even shared his success with journalists.
In an interview, he shared his experiences:
"I want to live a full life, enjoy communication with children and people close to me. I want to be the best for them! But at the same time I want them to understand that each of us has its own weaknesses and sometimes needs help. I do not consider it shameful to talk about my problems and seek help, I am guided by a desire to recover and forget about my problems with alcohol. "
One of the friends, as an incognito, said that Ben is afraid of losing the respect of children, himself and the new relationship, so I decided to seriously take up my health:
"This is the problem that haunts him all his life, so now it is important for him not to forget about his priorities. It will be hard to work on yourself and your preferences. "
The situation is so serious that last weekend Ben Affleck even missed the wedding ceremony of the sister of his lover Lindsay Sukus in New York. Between the invitation to the holiday and the opportunity to see the children, he chose a family. In addition, the paparazzi noticed him in several rehabilitation centers in Los Angeles, which specialize in alcohol and drug addiction.
In late September, Ben, according to the same source, asked him to help him pick up a rehab program in Los Angeles. This dealt with Jennifer Garner and actor's brother Casey Affleck. At the end of the program, Ben continues to visit the center to monitor his condition.

A friend of the actor claims that Ben is very serious this time:
"He knows that if not now, then it will be very difficult both in relations with children and in careers. We understand that the fight against addictions, not important to the narcotic or alcoholic, is a struggle of a lifetime. We will always support him. Now he is very serious and does his best to return to normal life. Treatment is hard work on yourself. "
