You forgot the best part. Before doing that he was (and probably still is) against medicating yourself out of addictions because it's the "easy way out". His entire shtick is about the right way of living and then he acts contrarily to his own teachings.

My favorite is when someone asked him "Do you believe in God" and he was caught between his reputation as an "intellectual" and the fact that the apes he grifts are gonna hoot extra loud and fling extra poo if he says no. Recognizing that he was between a rock and a hard place, he gave one of the most amusing non-responses I've ever heard in my life. What he said was, from memory, "That depends on what you mean by 'do', 'you', 'believe' and 'God'." He then blathered on for a minute about how he thinks of God as a symbol for the human capacity for goodness and he believes in that, and no one asked why the symbol for the human capacity for goodness hates trans people and needs money, so everyone left satisfied.
