Is Macaulay Culkin still struggling with his drug addictions? The "Home Alone" actor is reportedly using methadone as a substitute to heroine "fix" despite his rep's denial on claims of his heroine use in the past, according to Radar Online.
A source close to the actor tells the site, "When Mac wants or needs to get sober, he goes for the occasional fix of methadone at Mount Sinai Beth Israel hospital in New York City. As far as I'm aware, he has yet to enroll in a full-time program meant for long-term sobriety. Unfortunately, using methadone randomly and not in a controlled environment has its own inherent risks, in that it can also be addictive if abused."
According to the site, Macaulay looked frazzled while navigating a busy Manhattan street on March 30. "If you saw Mac, you'd think he was a homeless bum or a drifter," an onlooker says. "He certainly looks the part!"
The source claims that the 35-year-old actor is drenching his days in alcohol. "Mac's a regular at Warehouse Wines & Spirits located on the same block as his apartment," the source reveals. "He likes a variety of booze, and goes in there at least twice a month to buy alcohol by the case."
Macaulay is reportedly so paranoid that he hides out at his New York City home most of the time.
A representative for Macaulay hasn't commented on the report yet.
