In the documentary God Bless Ozzy Osbourne (2011), Ozzy Osbourne reflected on his tumultuous past, stating, "Looking back, I should have died a thousand times but never did." He candidly acknowledged the extent of his substance abuse, revealing that by midday during his heyday, he would often be intoxicated with drugs.
This reckless lifestyle not only harmed his health but also resulted in incidents of domestic violence. Sharon Osbourne, in a 2011 CNN interview, recounted the fear and uncertainty she felt during those violent episodes. She described the terrifying experience of living in isolation, with her children asleep and no neighbours nearby, and the daunting question of what actions to take in the face of such aggression.
