AceShowbiz - Often times, Miller used drugs to cope with his depression. He once said that dealing with fame at a young age was difficult. "...I think it started [with success]. It's funny because you talk to people and they say, 'You know, what do you have to be depressed about? You have money and [stuff],' " he told Larry King on "Larry King Now".
His 2014 album "Faces" reflected his past mental state as he said that the record was "super depressing." Though so, the record producer, who worked under the pseudonym Larry Fisherman, claimed in August 2015 that he's "not as depressed anymore." He explained, "Making music when you're depressed is great therapy, but I wanted this album to be in a different headspace."
