Keith Urban has spoken out about the dangers of alcoholism and his recent stint in rehab.
The 39-year-old wrote on his official website that his life had become "unmanageable" previous to his rehab visit.
"There was no big cataclysmic event that happened right before I went in," he explained. "It was a lot of small things that were happening in my life, a lot of small moments that were starting to accumulate that were telling me very loud and clear that I was a long way from my programme of recovery, and they were making my life unmanageable.".
He added: "Learning about abstinence was one thing, but then there was all this other area of my life to start learning about. And so 30 days became 60, and 60 days became 90, and with each week that passed I found myself really learning how to surrender."
