75岁的流行摇滚传奇菲尔·柯林斯近日向媒体详述了他近年来的严重酗酒问题及随之而来的健康危机[1]。他在2023年11月因酗酒导致的器官损伤被住院，住院期间共持续七个月[1]。在住院期间，柯林斯的病情一度危急，他表示"我的肾脏在衰竭，我的器官正在停止工作，人们来向我道别"[1]。医疗团队曾考虑是否继续进行生命维持治疗[1]。
柯林斯表示自从出院以来已经戒酒[1]。这不是他首次与酗酒作斗争——2015年他曾公开表示，在2006年与第三任妻子奥里安娜·塞维分手后经历了一段酗酒期，当时声称已戒酒三年[1]。此外，他还在2016年被诊断出患有糖尿病[1]。除了酗酒和代谢问题外，柯林斯还长期饱受颈椎和脊椎问题困扰，这使他无法再演奏鼓，因此在2021年的Genesis巡演中仅担任主唱[1]。
Pop rock legend Phil Collins has opened up about a severe alcoholism crisis that nearly cost him his life.[1] The 75-year-old was hospitalized for seven months beginning in November 2023 after alcohol-related damage to his pancreas and kidneys.[1] During his hospitalization, his condition became so critical that physicians considered whether to continue life-sustaining treatment.[1] "My kidneys were packing up, my organs were just seizing up. People were coming to say goodbye," Collins disclosed.[1]
Since his discharge, Collins has remained sober.[1] "I haven't had a drink since," he stated.[1] Collins experienced a previous battle with alcohol in the years following his 2006 divorce from his third wife, Orianne Cevey, during which he had claimed to achieve three years of sobriety by 2015.[1] He has also contended with other serious health challenges, including a diabetes diagnosis in 2016 and spinal and cervical issues that prevented him from playing drums, limiting his role in Genesis's 2021 tour to vocals only.[1]
