Despite ditching drugs, Pete still smokes and drinks alcohol and previously told Louis Theroux in an interview he was a "very sick man."
Over the course of his career, Pete has publicly battled issues with drugs but the musician now claims that he's currently more unhealthy than he was during the height of his struggles.
During an interview with The Guardian's Saturday Magazine, the Babyshambles star commented: "Then you get told alcohol and cheese and sugar are just as bad and you were healthier when you were on heroin."
Meanwhile, his own documentary, Peter Doherty: Stranger In My Own Skin, details his struggles at the height of his fame, showing him smoking drugs and dealing with the aftermath.
