I don't know what to think about the new meeting. I used to love seeing him working all the time, but after the rehab news I realized what a selfish fan I was. His health and happiness should come first. But he's thinking of going back to work as soon as his jaw starts to heal? Come on, Zac. Please take care of yourself...
i think the work itself is good for zac and he enjoys it so i'm not worried about him going back too soon or anything. i think some of the emotional aspects tied to this being such a high stakes and high profile game are probably what undermined his confidence, etc. that's what he kind of has to work on finding peace with and in that regard, i've always felt that if he came to a decision that he needed to take a break or walk away from it completely, i would 100% support that.
i think he has to find ways to survive in a toxic environment. hollywood is toxic for a number reasons, the most obvious being how prevalent drug and alcohol use is. but it is also psychologically challenging. he will frequently not get projects he wants to do, and often for unfair reasons (aka people pigeonhole him as musical boy). worse he is constantly scrutinized, by critics, bean-counters, gossip mongers, media, anti-fans. and even us stans. he lives in a fishbowl and while he has learned to play the game, playing the game fucks with your head long term. he has to find a way to survive that and have a fulfilling life. at some point there is a choice to stay or leave, whether the joy of acting is worth the pain of all the shit that comes with being a movie star. i don't think it will ever be a decision to walk away completely but i think even rob lowe said it somewhere recently that he had to make life and sobriety the priority over these other things.
We are discussing his mind and his personal life right here, right now, and if he were reading all this, he would no doubt be discomfited by it. Knowing we're all out here, scrutinizing him and passing value judgments, even though WE LIKE HIM, is part of psychological the burden he must bear.
I just hope he goes to hometown and takes a rest there until the TAM promo starts. Adam Shankman said he had been visiting Zac every day and Zac was photographed with dad around Thanksgiving, so I assume he hasn't gone back to hometown since breaking jaw? What I'm worried about is him staying in LA when not working. I wonder if he's getting enough treatment and therapy for the addiction problem. People believe his jaw injury is the result of partying, and I'm afraid they may be right.
Well if referring to that most people think that is ontd and the apparent blind items on zac, and apparently radar online just makes up stories about how apparently lily is taking care of zac and keeping him on track when they seem to ignore completely thst Adam and prolly his family and friends have been taking care and helping zac, so idk why radar online likes to single lily out and make it sound like she's the only girl for zac out there and make it known that she doesn't party or drink, so never got why that shit gossip site decided to single her out and etc,
nobody ignored adam helping him lol. there were like five stories about him to the one about lily. i, for one, am happy that zac has another person who seems decent and supportive to be there helping him out. he needs good people around him and she is alright.
The stories are from radar online tho? I feel like ppl are forgetting that? Radar online made a story about lily leaving a store with a bag of food and came up with the conclusion that lily is helping with that logic, so ignore its from a shit site?
I always take it as a good sign when we see his Dad with him. It's great that his family has maintained such a presence in his life. I'm sure his struggles have been hell for them too. And I didn't realize that he maintained such a bond with Adam. That makes me happy that he has people like him for support.
I think a part of me will always wonder in the back of my mind if the accident that broke his jaw was caused by partying but we'll never know. I'm no expert on the matter, but it amazes me that people think he's cured because he went to rehab. This will be a lifelong struggle for him but I'm so glad he's got people like Rob Lowe on his side who've been down this road and came out on the other side. I'm just glad he seems/looks healthier than he has in a LONG time(at least his face bloat is gone - that was a dead giveaway for me that he was struggling).
As for work, he should keep himself busy as others have said. But, if he decided tomorrow to take a break or walk away completely to focus on his sobriety, I'd applaud him and

Is face bloat really cause thr obvious with zac? It wasn't the constant partying? Because I'm trying to figure out on here how some fans knew about zacs issues had struggles? Yet I honestly had no idea he had problems like that because imo I always thought he had issues with alcohol because there was tons of sightings of him and clubs and I just assume it was that not a drug problem? Sorry if comment sounds rude.
None of the factors you mentioned alone means someone has substance abuse issues. It's always a combination of things and information.
Just because someone goes to clubs a lot, doesn't automatically mean that person has alcohol or drug issues. Neither does a chubby face mean that in every case. Eg. some legal prescription drugs also cause bloat, esp if you're predestined for it like Zac who tends to show any legit weight gain in his face immediately as well.
In short, there is no ultimate sign for you to know for sure. You have to take all information in context.
And if Zac in the future shows up with a bit a bloated face, it doesn't mean he's back on alcohol or drugs either; esp given his situation it's likely that he is now occasionally taking some completely legit prescription pills which might cause a similar effect. As I said, it has to be looked at in an overall context.
from what ive noitce on here and in some with other fans that they knew and im thinking uh it was never mention in any type of gossip site, mags and etc about these issues and same for ontd its like apparently everyone knew its like did i miss the memo on apparently knowing about these problems?
My parents came to visit me recently. They asked "How are you?" and I said, "I barely have time to go to the bathroom," and they said, "That's good! When you're not busy, that's when you get into trouble
( ... )
Zac always seemed insecure about himself. And I remember him saying he's a pessimist. Now that I look back, he has always said he thinks his chance at making it in Hollywood is very small. So sad.
