After hitting rock-bottom and surviving his suicide attempt, Jay says he turned his life around. When he appeared on the show, he shared that he's been off meth for one and a half years. How did he finally quit?

"I think that it's a combination of going to [12-step] meetings every day," Jay says. "Working with a sponsor … Telling the therapist and myself the truth … Doing the work that is required to face the ugliness of myself. I mean, I was the most self-absorbed, bitchy, materialistic little queen that you could possibly want to meet."

Today, Jay is working to bring education and awareness to the gay community—a mission he says helps keep him sober. And for those battling addiction, Jay offers a hopeful message. "Find somebody who has been sober for two years and get them to start a 12-step meeting," he says. "Take care of ourselves and start loving one another."
