American Pie star Jason Biggs has opened up about his past battle with drugs and alcohol - which was so bad he ended up doing cocaine out of a trash can.
The actor, 47, admitted to going on cocaine benders in a brutally honest interview on the Well with Arielle Lorre podcast this week.
'I knew when I needed to call the coke dealer because I was gonna drink too much, and how much Ambien to take or benzos to take based on how much coke I'd had so I'd come down but hopefully not die,' he confessed..
After shooting to fame at 19 in the American Pie franchise, Biggs boasted that he had, 'money in the bank, coke in my pocket and nobody saying no to me.'
'It was [amazing] but I was also aware of crazy that was,' he added.
Biggs admitted to getting so blacked out during coke and booze-fueled benders that he'd forget what he did the night before.
Sharing how dark his addiction became, Biggs admitted to hiding his drug use from his wife Jenny Mollen, who he married in 2008.
'I was drinking a lot by myself and using a lot by myself and not telling my wife,' he explained.
'I took advantage of her... I felt like I was able to put things past her and I did,' he continued, before admitting that he would stay up into the early hours of the morning drinking alcohol and doing coke after his wife went to bed.
At his lowest point, Biggs found himself doing drugs out of a trash can.
Sharing the unbelievable story, the actor said that he was up snorting cocaine at 4am while his wife slept when he decided to throw out the bag, which still had some coke in it, to make himself stop.
He tossed the bag inside the trash in his kitchen and tried to go to bed, only to return fifteen minutes later to dig it out and do another line.
In his second attempt to discard the bag, he went outside and tossed it into the large trash bins out the front of his Hollywood home.
He initially planned to pop an Ambien and go to sleep, but soon the temptation of another bump became too much to resist.
'I went outside and I climbed into the bin and got the bag of coke out and went upstairs and did another line,' he confessed.
Fed up with himself, Biggs then got into his car and drove down Sunset Boulevard until he found a random house.
Rifling through their garbage, the star found a discarded Starbucks cup with some coffee left in it at the bottom.
He put the bag inside and closed the lid, before tossing the filthy cup back into the bin and leaving.
Biggs drove home, before turning the car around and returning to the garbage to fish the bag of coke out of the cup so he could do another line.
'I drove back home and finished the bag of coke,' he said.
'I could've just easily opened the baggie and dumped it down the toilet, but I didn't. I knew I was gonna finish that bag the moment I got it, but I kept playing this game with myself.'
The father-of-two got sober in 2017 and celebrated his first year of sobriety with a touching post back in 2018.
'I first tried to get sober over 5 years ago, when the weight of my obsession with booze and drugs became too heavy for me to handle,' he wrote at the time.
'Turns out this sh*t is hard. After some fits and starts, I've managed to put together one year of sobriety. I'm as proud of it as anything in my life.
He concluded: 'If you're struggling, know there's help. Don't be ashamed. We can do this.'
