Justin Bieber has admitted that the first thing he used to do in the morning was wake up and take pills or smoke cannabis.
The Baby singer, 25, shockingly revealed that he was completely dependent on cannabis from the age of 13.
He divulged that his cannabis addiction then saw him go on to experiment with other drugs such as MDMA, mushrooms and a codeine-based cocktail.
Revealing how bad his addiction became, Justin said: “My security were coming in at night to check my pulse.
“People don’t know how serious it got.”

Justin said he finally stopped taking drugs out of fear of death.
He shared: “‘I was, like, dying. People don’t know how serious it got It was legit, crazy scary.
‘I basically said to myself, ‘God, if you are real, you get me through this season of stopping these pills and stuff, and if you do, I’ll do the rest of the work.’ I never did the actual work. I got off the pills but never went to the root of everything so I just circled back around which most people do’.”

Speaking on his YouTube Premium documentary, Justin Bieber: Seasons, the Yummy hitmaker added: “It was just an escape for me. I was young.
“My experience was in front of cameras and I had a different level of exposure.”
Justin also revealed that one of his coping methods for his recovery routine sees him going in an oxygen chamber, which helps him deal with his anxiety.

The bare-all documentary also explores the fact Bieber was wrongly diagnosed as bipolar, when in fact he was suffering from Lyme disease.
Commenting on the diagnosis, Justin said: “It feels good to now know why I felt so crappy all this time.”
Wife Hailey, 23, added: “He just felt so sick and there was no explanation for what was going on.”
