Eminem took to social media over the weekend to show-off his coin inaugurating 10 years of sobriety.

 

Em had long struggled with prescription drug addiction. In 2011, he revealed the extend of this addiction: “The doctors told me I’d done the equivalent of four bags of heroin … they said I was about two hours from dying.”

 

At the height of his addiction, the Missouri-born rapper said he was consuming around 60 valium and 30 Vicodin pills per day, an affliction that would erase huge chunks of his memory.

 

Longtime Eminem collaborating and friend Royce da 5’9″ was quick to congratulate his mentor.
