Steven Tyler, frontman for Aerosmith, has been totally public about getting clean and sober over twenty years ago.

So why did he end up back in rehab lately?

Turns out he had to have some surgery on his feet. That surgery ... and healing from it, too ... ended up being far more painful than Steven originally thought it would be. So, to give himself the healthy space and time to heal, he checked himself into rehab.

I can understand that. I quit drugging and drinking ten years ago, and while I don't ever think seriously about smoking weed anymore, the 12-step environment is still one of the safest, most accepting places I know.
