When Exactly Did Eminem

[Wreck]

do drugs/experiment with drugs? Any info on that?

I remember from a lot of interviews, with DJ Rec, who was a good friend of his, and produced for the Slim Shady EP and a few others, that he never really did drugs or alcohol, and that he was just seeing Kim. He was working at Gilbert's Lodge then. But when exactly did he first do drugs, and when could we also say he became a druggie? Because for example, just because somebody does weed or coke once, doesn't mean they are a druggie. Just wanted to know, thanks.

he started taking drugs when SSLP dropped, then his drug addiction got worse when he filmed 8mile, the when proof died, he nearly died from an overdose,

He's said in recent interviews that he's been using drugs since he became famous but it wasn't something he would go looking for. If someone had drugs on them, then he would use them. Vicodin and Valium are the ones he started using on a regular basis.

When he became famous iguess.
He said that he didn't buy drugs,I mean, he didn't have drugs,he took drugs if some of his friends had them
and he also said that his mother gave him valuim when he was a child, and thats why was so hard to stop taking it

He said in an interview that he didn't really start doing drugs before he started rapping about them, which will then be when Slim Shady LP was in making I guess...
And probably a little before that, because he was high on E when he got his blonde hair.

Yeah he talked about the first time he took drugs in the The Way I Am book. Or I don't quite remember if he just spitted it out.
