Ozzy Osbourne is opening up about his opening up about his personal battle with addiction and revealed that he is not sober amid his ongoing health issues.

During the latest episode of his "The Madhouse Chronicles" podcast, Ozzy and his co-host/best friend Billy Morrison took a deep dive into their experience with drugs, addiction and their road to sobriety. During the episode, Ozzy said that he's "not completely sober" and added, "I use a bit of marijuana from time to time."

Ozzy went on to share how his wife Sharon has helped to stay on the sober path, explaining, "I'm lucky my wife kicked my butt, obviously. She would f***ing make life so difficult." He added, "Like with marijuana, she'll f***in' find it and get rid of it."

Despite his (and his wife's) efforts to keep himself sober, he admits that the feeling to do more has come back after receiving a small amount of ketamine from a doctor. He said, "I went to a doctor recently and started to have this ketamine. He put a tiny bit in me, but that was enough to spark me. That thing came back and weighted my brain."
