Eminem reveals near death experience post drug overdose: Report
Eminem has been opening up about the moment that changed his life.
A new report of RadarOnline.com mentioned that the 52-year-old rapper revealed in a new documentary Stans what led him to get sober.
Reportedly, a near-fatal drug overdose became the wake-up call for the rapper to get his act right after years of prescription pill abuse.
“I got into this vicious cycle of, ‘I’m depressed, so I need more pills,’” the Real Slim Shady crooner admitted.
“Then your tolerance gets so high that you end up overdosing. I woke up in the hospital and didn’t know what happened,” he explained.
He went on to recall, “I had tubes in me and I couldn’t move — I wanted to get up, but I couldn’t.”
It is pertinent to mention that by that point, Eminem had been taking up to 20 pills a day a habit that started in the late 1990s and lasted until around 2008.
The overdose left those closest to him fearing brain damage and uncertain whether he would ever rap again.
The turning point came when he realized just how much of his family life he was losing.
“I cried because it was like, ‘Oh my God, I missed [Hailie’s guitar recital],’” the Oscar, Emmy and Grammy winner shared of his now-29-year-old daughter.
“I kept saying to myself, ‘Do you want to miss this again? Do you want to miss everything? If you can’t do it for yourself, at least do it for them.’”
“My writing had gotten terrible,” he confessed.
“I had to find that rhythm again — like rebuilding a muscle,” he remarked in conclusion.
To mark the Christmas season, “Sunday Morning” presents a performance by the Young People’s Chorus of New York City, of “Jolly Toyland,” arranged by Francisco J. Nunez.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle’s Archewell foundation under suspicion over making big numbers
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Archewell empire is back in the spotlight and this time it’s the numbers doing the talking.
Fresh financial filings for 2024 paint a messy picture behind the glossy rebrand to “Archewell Philanthropies,” with donations plunging, vague expenses exploding and end of year liabilities shooting up in ways that have left charity watchers openly baffled.
Contributions fell sharply from roughly £3.96 million in 2023 to just £1.57 million in 2024.
Insiders pointed out that almost the entire year’s haul appears to hinge on a single $2 million donation routed through the Silicon Valley Community Foundation believed by critics to be linked to the same mystery donor who quietly funnelled £7.5 million to Archewell back in 2021.
Despite the cash drop, grant-giving stayed stubbornly steady at around £975,000, with the Sussexes’ pet causes still well fed.
The biggest slice went to the “Welcome Project,” split across a dozen groups, while headline cheques included £112,000 to Screen Sanity for online safety, £94,000 to the NAACP and £75,000 to the Hopelab Foundation.
Notably missing this year was Ashley Biden’s wellness project, which had previously benefited from Archewell largesse.
Where things really get spicy is spending. Employee pay remained eye wateringly high for a charity of this size, with top executives pocketing six-figure salaries even as reports swirled of staff being quietly let go during the rebrand.
By the end of 2024, Archewell’s liabilities had surged by more than £600,000 compared to the previous year.
While the foundation insists everything is above board, watchdogs note that the foundation still clears the threshold requiring it to file public IRS disclosures.
Prince Harry and Meghan who preach transparency and compassion, Archewell’s latest figures read less like a fairy tale and more like a financial cliffhanger.
