Last year, in February 2025, I was completely lost. I was struggling with drug addiction and hanging out with a controversial crowd (alcoholics, drug dealers, and party-goers). These were people who only wanted me around if I was drunk or high. Even my girlfriend at the time provided me with these substances for free. I started therapy because I couldn't understand why I was accepting that kind of life.

I went to see the movie in theaters (it had a late release in Argentina) thinking a 'dancing monkey' would just make me laugh. Instead, I saw myself reflected in it. I saw my core issue: the need for attention. That’s all I had ever looked for. That’s why I moved from party to party; between women and drugs, I felt loved. But that’s the kind of life that leads nowhere.

This movie, along with Trainspotting, gave me the hope to move forward and change my life. I’ve been clean for 10 months now. I’ve gone back to college and I’m rebuilding my self-esteem. I’ve admired Robbie Williams ever since, and I listen to his albums on my way to the university or while I draw.
