Latest Shocking Entertainment News: Comedian Andy Dick Says 'F*** No' to Rehab Stay After Reported Overdose
Comedian Andy Dick has no interest in seeking professional help after his reported overdose.
“When you say professional, should I call Dr. Drew again? Do I need help? Do we all need help?” Dick, 59, said in a video obtained by TMZ on Thursday, December 11. “I’m surrounded by my two friends, [and] it would be hard for me to escape from them.”
When asked about whether he would enter an in-patient rehab program, Dick proclaimed, “F*** no.”
“No, I’m not going,” he added.

One of Dick’s two friends even told the outlet that they were supporting the TV star.
“We’ve both brought him to rehab so many times,” the unnamed pal said. “I think we would love to see him [go back].”
News broke earlier this week that Dick was administered Narcan medicine after an apparent overdose.
“I don’t mind doing some crack every now and then,” Dick told TMZ on Wednesday, December 10, noting that he is “100 percent fine.”
The Andy Dick Show alum has long been candid about his struggles with drugs and alcohol, even previously checking into rehab nearly 20 times.
“I had to stop drinking, or I was going to die,” Dick told Vice in 2016. “I could see it very clearly. I was bleeding out of my ass. I was going to die. I would always say that I didn’t have a problem with drugs and alcohol, but I would drink when I was happy, when I was sad, when I was anxious. Without drugs or alcohol, I was depressed, frustrated, angry.”

He further explained that drinking and doing drugs “just stopped being fun.”
“Honestly, it just stopped being fun when I was crawling around on the floor to find the phone, not able to dial because both my hands were shaking,” he told the outlet. “When I would get ahold of one of the recovery centers, they would hang up when they found out it was me. No one wanted to help me because I was unhelpable. Why would they bring me in just to have me die in their bed?”
At the time, Dick decided to enter treatment again after his son checked into a facility.
“He was going crazy from speed, trying to set things on fire. I was drinking heavily, saying, ‘That kid needs help!’ Three months into his sobriety, it hit me hard that I’m an a**hole,” Dick told Vice of son Jacob’s own addiction battle. “I couldn’t even come to terms with what a dick I was. I was obviously the one with the real problem.”
He continued, “I made a deal with him that I would stay in treatment as long as he did. He not only completed treatment, he works at the clinic as a technician.”
Later in 2016, Dick marked 15 months of sobriety that he saw as a “cause for celebration.”
“I’m one of those ‘special needs’ cases. Seriously, I was written off by most people, and rightfully so. I was slowly dying, and I was frighteningly OK with it,” Dick wrote via Facebook at the time. “I knew I was going to die soon anyways. That was 15 and a half months ago. Today, I can say that Soba [Recovery Center] has given me my life and my family back. We are all kicking butt and loving life and each other!”
