It's tough for anyone to overcome an addiction, but when your vice is booze, and your job entails popping bottles in high-end clubs, changing your ways can be especially tough.
That's the struggle that Scott Disick is facing these days, as the father of three is struggling to kick the habit before he gets kicked to the curb.
The problem is, the Lord has a hard enough time staying sober just when he's hanging out at home (watch Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons online for evidence of this), and he still insists on doing club appearances, as though his family needs the money.
Scott went on a bender in Aspen just weeks after Kourtney Kardashian gave birth to his third child.
Shortly thereafter, the Kardashian sisters traveled to Vegas with Scott to make sure that he stays off the hooch while doing whatever he gets paid to do at a newly-opened casino.
Now, Scott is in the UK for a series of club appearances, and he's been trusted to travel solo. Remarkably, sources say he's been behaving himself...kinda.
"Scott has stayed sober and, unlike the last trip, he has been in constant contact with Kourtney," says one insider. "He knows she has people watching him like a hawk overseas. So far, so good."
Of course, Scott has a more liberal definition of "sober" than most recovering alcoholics.
"He is not 100-percent alcohol free all the time," says the source. "He is working toward a healthier self by eliminating the people and things in his life that were toxic."
Considering Disick almost died from alcohol poisoning last summer, we would think booze would be number one on the list of toxic things he should stay away from, but what do we know?
You know you're ballin' when you could afford therapists who just tell you whatever the hell you wanna hear.
