Mark Hoppus Details Suicidal Struggles After Blink-182 Split

In his new memoir 'Fahrenheit-182,' Mark Hoppus candidly discusses the profound impact of Blink-182's breakup in 2005, particularly how it plunged him into a deep depression and suicidal thoughts. Following guitarist Tom DeLonge's exit, Hoppus felt lost, stating, 'I lost everything. I lost my direction, I lost my confidence, I lost my sense of self.' He describes moments where hearing their songs in public would compel him to leave, highlighting the depth of his mental struggle. Seeking help from a psychiatrist and medication eventually provided him relief, allowing him to regain clarity and perspective. Despite these challenges, Blink-182 reunited in 2023 to release their album 'One More Time...' and continue their music journey. Hoppus also reflects on his battle with cancer, further emphasizing themes of resilience and recovery in his life.
