Getting Rid of Drugs: Jeff Conaway’s story
As we all know, Jeff Conway is a Hollywood actor who did a striking role in the movie Grease. Taxi and Babylon 5 were also his well-known TV serials. His personal life though was kind of a shocker. This guy came back to life after a serious accident in mid 80’s soon to start his new problem in life that of drug abuse.
Meanwhile there was a show in VH1 called Celebrity fit club. Jeff Conaway himself had appeared in this show, but for his drug problems, he was deliberately asked to leave the show. Thereafter he needed to be in a rehab, and later in 2008, he along with other celebrities was part of VH1’s show, Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.
In the show, Conway’s addiction to drugs like cocaine and some of the pain killers which were common in the prescription drug list like morphine and stuff were revealed. He was in a very bad shape on the show, which caught the attention of viewers. He came in with a bad back pain, which according Dr Drew irritated him the most. He tried killing himself many times on the show because of his humiliations and irritation resultant of his injury. Even though the show didn’t turn out to be a good one for him, his pain killer addiction was stopped after a 5th back surgery. No one knows the truth really, as the man himself made this claim in a personal interview.
