- yourapostasy 4y ago> ...his depression was probably the reason he was addicted in the first place. This was alluded to in another article about him [1]: The punishing schedule was necessary for the shows, but there was another reason Bourdain wanted to keep busy. "I know that free time is bad for me," he said. "If I have a lot of time to stare at the ceiling and think about the mysteries of the universe, it can be self-destructive." He was too conscientious in a medium that cannot live without artifice due to the economics it must be packaged through. I sometimes wonder if he would have found the artistic and authentic creative freedom he craved in a livestream medium.
