‘Well, I, like a lot of people, being completely honest, during the pandemic fell off and felt really a lot of … and I would never sit here and go, “I’ve been f—ing sober.” I didn’t, and I fell off and I realized that I now am back on sobriety, two weeks sober, and I feel like I really accepted that time,’ she said.
‘One of the things I’ve used is, “Don’t get furious, get curious,”‘ she added. ‘So don’t be mad at yourself, but ask yourself, “What happened?”‘

The singer explained she didn’t want to talk publicly about breaking her sobriety in recent months but knows she feels her best when she’s not drinking.

‘I think everyone has to do what is best for them. I don’t have a problem with drinking. I have a problem with the decisions I make once I go past that level of … Even into, I’ve just been wanting to wake up 100 percent, 100 percent of the time.’

The Midnight Sky hitmaker admitted it’s not been too challenging for her to be sober because she has great self-control.
‘I’m very disciplined,’ she said. ‘Yeah, very disciplined. That’s why it’s never easy, but it’s pretty easy for me to be sober or in and out of sobriety because it’s like the day I don’t want to f***ing do it anymore, I don’t. The day that I do, I do. You know? But when I don’t want to it just is. I’m just very disciplined.’
In June, Miley revealed she’d been sober for six months after having surgery on her vocal cords.
