"I was numb and I had lots of swollen lymph nodes, my heart was hurting and I had blood clots in my arm and leg." - on his drug-induced stroke. "I was working on The Lost Boys when I smoked my first joint. But a year before that, I was starting to drink beer on the set of the film Lucas. I lived in Los Angeles in the '80s, which was not the best place to be. I did cocaine for about a year and a half, then it led to crack. I started on the downers which were a hell of a lot better than the uppers because I was a nervous wreck. But one led to two, two led to four, four led to eight, until at the end it was about 85 a day - the doctors could not believe I was taking that much. And that was just the valium - I'm not talking about the other pills I went through".
