I started sleeping better, I was handling stressful situations better, my relationship was better, my relationship with my family was better.

よく眠れるようになり、ストレスの多い状況にもうまく対処できるようになり、人間関係も良くなり、家族との関係も良くなった。

You just have to be bold enough to take that step to try it and once you get across the line you're like, wow.

その一歩を踏み出すだけの大胆さが必要なんだ。

I used to remember going to parties in LA when I, because at the beginning, you know, as a young kid you try to fit into the LA world and now that I've grown up a little bit and I know that it isn't my place to be, I don't try as hard to go out to the LA parties and mix with celebrities that I don't know.

というのも、最初の頃は、若い子供としてLAの世界に溶け込もうとしていたんだ。今は少し成長して、LAが自分の居場所ではないとわかっているから、LAのパーティに出たり、知らないセレブリティに混ざったりするようなことはしなくなった。

And I think mental health, you know, I took a break from social media once and felt the need to kind of announce it because I didn't want to, I didn't want people to worry that, you know, I had disappeared or something, I don't know.

精神衛生上、私は一度ソーシャルメディアから離れ、それを公表する必要性を感じた。

And that also was met with a negative reaction of like, oh you can't hack it, like you can't handle social media.

そしてそれはまた、ああ、あなたはそれをハックすることができない、あなたはソーシャル・メディアを扱うことができないというような否定的な反応にさらされた。

I just think that sometimes it's important to look up and engage with what's around you and and I find for me with social media I can easily sit on the couch for four hours and scroll and I haven't had Instagram on my phone.

時々、顔を上げて、自分の周りにあるものに関心を持つことが大切だと思うし、私はソーシャルメディアのおかげで、4時間ソファに座ってスクロールすることが簡単にできるようになった。

I'll download it to post something or download it if a friend of mine's post something and I want to like it for them but 99% of the time I don't have it on my phone and my life is so much better for not being completely glued to this felt false world that we have on our phones.

何かを投稿するためにダウンロードしたり、友人が何かを投稿して「いいね！」を押したくなったらダウンロードしたりするけど、99％の時間は携帯電話に入れていない。

But it's a shame and I really hope it changes because I think self-preservation is so important.

でも、それは残念なことだし、自衛はとても重要だと思うから、変わってほしい。

I think it's really disappointing that a young person in my decision who's lucky enough to have the power to say I'm going to take some time off for myself gets painted as, you know, something negative.

自分のために休暇を取ると言える幸運な若者の決断が、ネガティブなものとして描かれるのは本当に残念なことだと思う。

I think we all work too hard and we should put our lives first.

私たちはみんな働きすぎで、自分の生活を優先すべきだと思う。

I've always lived by the idea that I work to live, I don't live to work and I think that it's really unfortunate that that's what people took from the idea of me taking a break.

私はいつも、生きるために働くのであって、働くために生きているのではないという考えで生きてきた。

You know, pressure is only natural and pressure is a privilege to a certain degree but sometimes too much pressure is too much pressure.

プレッシャーがかかるのは当然だし、プレッシャーはある程度の特権でもある。

Only a fool would say to you you should work until you crack because if you crack it's going to take you longer to get back to full fitness and work at your top capacity.

ヒビが入るまで働け、と言うのは愚か者だけだ。ヒビが入れば、完全な体力に戻り、最高の能力で働けるようになるまでに時間がかかるからだ。

So for me like taking these strategic little breaks where you can rest and recoup and come back your best self is really important and something that should be heralded rather than chastised.

だから私は、休養をとって回復し、最高の自分を取り戻すことができるような戦略的な小休憩をとることは本当に重要で、非難されるよりも称賛されるべきことだと思う。

I didn't decide to put the booze in the rear view to begin with.

そもそも酒を後景に置くと決めたわけじゃない。

I just decided to do dry January and in doing dry January it really scared me because I had a really tough time.

ドライな1月にしようと決めたんだけど、ドライな1月にすることで、本当に大変な時期があって、本当に怖くなったんだ。

I couldn't quite wrap my head around how much I was struggling without booze in that first month and it really scared me so I decided as a sort of punishment to myself that I would do February as well as January and I would do two months.

最初の1カ月は、酒なしでどれだけ苦労しているのか、自分でもよく理解できなかったし、本当に怖かったから、自分への罰として、1月だけでなく2月も2カ月やることにしたんだ。

The second month was no easier, if anything like it got a little bit harder.

2ヶ月目は決して楽ではなかった。むしろ、少し難しくなったような気がする。

So then again I was starting to kind of panic thinking damn like I have a bit of an alcohol thing.

それでまた、僕はアルコール依存症なんじゃないかとパニックになり始めたんだ。

I'd had a you know quite an upsetting conversation with a doctor about my liver a year earlier and as a young kid I ignored the doctor as we all do and I started to think like oh wow maybe I have a bit of an issue here so then I started to go I'll do March and I got through March and started to feel a little bit better but was still really struggling so I said to myself if I can make it to June 1st which is my birthday and I can do six months without booze I will have then proved to myself that I don't have a problem.

その1年前に肝臓のことで医者とかなり動揺した話をしたことがあったんだけど、幼い僕はみんなそうであるように医者を無視した。

I'm just young and enjoying a drink and then by the time I'd done six months sober I really started feeling the benefits.

私はただ若くてお酒を楽しんでいただけなのに、6カ月禁酒する頃には本当に効果を感じ始めた。

I started sleeping better, I was handling stressful situations better, my relationship was better, my relationship with my family was better, my relationship with my work was better and I just sort of said to myself let's do a year.

よく眠れるようになり、ストレスの多い状況にもうまく対処できるようになり、人間関係も良くなり、家族との関係も良くなり、仕事との関係も良くなった。

Let's get through the first year and then that will be a wonderful achievement and then by the time I'd crossed that annual mark I was done.

最初の1年をやり遂げれば、それは素晴らしい業績となる。

I was like I'm never gonna drink again because this is the best version of myself and when I realised that alcohol wasn't masking my insecurity or bringing out my best self it was actually doing the opposite.

アルコールが不安を覆い隠したり、最高の自分を引き出したりするのではなく、実際はその逆をやっているのだと気づいたとき、私はもう二度と飲まないという気持ちになった。

I then started to feel this freedom of like oh I can just be myself and I have nothing to be insecure about.

そうしたら、ああ、私は自分らしくいられるんだ、何も不安に思うことはないんだ、というような自由を感じるようになった。

People think a life of sobriety is sacrificing the fun but it really isn't.

断酒生活は楽しみを犠牲にすることだと思われているが、実際はそうではない。

You just have to be bold enough to like take that step to try it and once you get across the line you're like wow. you

その一歩を踏み出すだけの大胆さが必要なんだ。
