the particular lifestyle of constant travel, massive drug use to develop and maintain a cartoon body, the great adrenaline rush that comes from having hundreds and thousands cheer you, the tremendous pain that comes after the bouts and the inevitable "crash" as the drugs, excitement, and adulation disappear: all of that is self-destructive and addictive.
