Doja Cat has opened up about her cocaine use, combating self-hate and image issues while growing up. The Grammy-winning artist hopped on TikTok on Monday (Aug. 31) for a stream-of-consciousness chat and a moment of reflection, with the blunt candor Doja typically brings.
“I have struggled with cocaine; I think it could’ve been, like, eight years ago, but I’m well past that,” she admitted, which would be around the time of her Amala era.
Doja also revealed she struggled with alcohol, but wouldn’t deem herself an “alcoholic,” although drinking became an issue for her. She realized that mixing alcohol with the negative thoughts in her head and bringing that to the internet and social media wasn’t a healthy choice.
“Using the internet as a means of validation to the negative thoughts in my head, which were then brought on by drinking alcohol,” she said. “I never had a problem with drugs, except for weed, but alcohol is something I’ve definitely had a problem with. I was never an alcoholic, but I definitely had problems.”
Doja Cat continued: “It’s not good to pair these two things together. Stay creative, take care of yourself; you’re not indestructible.”
Doja also addressed allegations of self-hate, which she confirmed to be true. “It was very obvious that I did. I would even verbalize it out loud when I was 16,” she revealed. “I think I hated myself since I was 8 years old. That was since I moved to my predominantly white neighborhood.”
The “Say So” rapper added that she wanted to be public about facing her issues head-on because she believes there aren’t many examples of that right now.
“I, personally, want to dead those allegations. I’d really like to because it’s a negative thing. The only way I can do that is go through it, so I’ve gone through,” she said. “I think also being public about this sort of thing is very important because a lot of people don’t talk about this s–t.”
A month from Tuesday (Sept. 1), Doja Cat will kick off the North American leg of her Tour Ma Vie world tour in Detroit on Oct. 1.
