Summary
Delevingne said on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast that she was taking GHB every day and suffered seizures before realizing she needed medical detox and sobriety.
The 33-year-old said the 2022 Burning Man photos that alarmed fans were taken just after one seizure, adding that she was also using cocaine to stay awake.
She described addiction worsening in private even as her career thrived, saying fame, money and a polished public image helped conceal how severe her substance abuse had become.
Delevingne also said she became suicidal at the height of her success and traced her drug use to childhood trauma, her mother's illness and long-running mental health struggles.
Now sober and preparing new music, she said she chose to detail her GHB addiction publicly because she rarely hears people discuss that substance and hopes her story helps others.
