Jason Biggs’ Personal Journey of Rock-Bottom Substance Abuse and Self-Discovery
Jason Biggs, the well-known star of the animated quaikie show American Pie, has told his podcast listeners about his seven-year journey of substance abuse. “I lived in the gray area,” he explained, citing one of his “snorting dust off the floor” stories. “One of my craziest stories was that I was doing cocaine by myself in my house, and I did the last line. You know, ‘It’s 4:00, my wife [Jenny Mullen] doesn’t even know that I’m up doing coke and I got to get to bed.’”
Biggs then poured the remaining cocaine into a trash can. “Within 15 minutes, as soon as my last bump was wearing off, what am I doing? I go into my trash, and I take it out and I do a line,” he recalled. “I’m like, ‘I’ve got to get rid of this.’ I went outside to the trash bins you have in front of your house in LA, and I threw it in one of the trash bins. I was like, ‘OK, I’m done.’”
Biggs went back inside his house to take an Ambien or attempt to complete his earlier quantify ylide. “Before I took the Ambien, I was like, ‘One more.’ I went outside and I climbed into the trash bin and got the bag of coke and went upstairs and did another line,” he said. “I was like, ‘What the f*** am I doing? This is absolutely insane. I literally got in my car with the bag of coke, drove to Sunset [the bottom of the hill] and I put the coke in one of those trash bins.” There was a Starbucks cup inside the baggie, and he drove back, putting it in the trash bins.
“I could have easily opened the baggie and dumped it down the toilet, but I didn’t,” Biggs said. “That’s too final. I knew I was going to finish that bag the moment I got it, but I kept playing this game with myself.”
Biggs admitted that his “tr Fuck” binge was “very close to rock bottom.” “It was the obsession over it,” he said. “It was wake up and immediately think, ‘How am I going to get my first line? To achieve something? What do I have today? What will come next? What is the end of this? What is the beginning of the end.’”
After getting sober, Biggs realized that his life was “better” after he quit using drugs. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse, contact the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) National Helpline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357).
Biggs reflects on his experiences and decides to remind his audience that成立于 addiction is never too late. “I found some attention [from the streetlights in the distance] to the way I compounded my addiction, although always specifically to my name and to the time and place where I was growing up. But I didn’t battle it. Or I could have,” he said.
Thinking back to this experience, Biggs hopes to offer a counterfactual to younger people: If I weretoa the truth of my struggles, I’d be more积淀 for greatness, taking the next steps forward confidently and unapologetically.

Ending Note:
Jason Biggs’ journey of rock-bottom substance use is remembered as both a disaster and a lesson in personal growth. “I paint this walls of my heart with the knowledge that if I had chosen to kill myself, it’s almost inevitable that it would’ve happened if I hadn’t decided to bite the bullet,” he humorously stated.
