have
completed
treatment

alcohol
addiction;
something
I've
dealt
with
in
the
past
and
will
continue
to
confront,
I
want

live
life
to
the
fullest
and
be
the
best
father
I
can

"I
want
my
kids
to
know
there
is
no
shame
in
getting
help
when
you
need
it,

to
be
a
source

anyone
out

who
needs

first
step." Affleck

the
love

my
family

friends,
including
my
co-parent,
Jen,
who
has
supported
me

cared
for
our
kids
as
I've

I

recovery." The

Affleck
had
also
been
to
rehab
for
alcohol
back
in

"I
went
to
rehab
for
being
29
and
partying
too
much
and
not
having
a
lot
of
boundaries
and
to
clear
my
head
and
try
to
get
some
idea
of
who
I
wanted
to
be,"
Affleck
said
earlier.
"It
was
more
a
'let
me
get
myself
straight,' before
it
became
a
rite
of
passage."
