Tiffany Haddish is finished with fame, but she will be able to’t wait to see what’s next in her life.

As she prepares for the May 7 release of her recent memoir, “I Curse You with Joy,” the sequel to 2017 New York Times bestseller “The Last Black Unicorn,” the comedian and actress is opening up about her journey to find peace amid controversy – which she says began with her decision to remove alcohol from her eating regimen People Magazine.

“This is my challenge to people. Stop drinking for six months and just see how your life changes,” Haddish said. “You will get your kidnapped body back, you will notice that your relationships will probably be higher, and you’ll stop hanging out with people you haven’t got to cope with.”

“My problem was,” she said, “I woke up next to ugly men.”

Police arrested the “Girls Trip” star in Georgia in January 2022 after finding her asleep at the wheel. She was charged with driving under the influence and improper stopping. In November, police found her sleeping in her automobile in the middle of a Beverly Hills intersection, leading to one other DUI arrest in Los Angeles.

“I’m very sober,” she said recently, noting that it’s a key component of her happiness. “I have never had a drink since (the November incident). When I sit and have a look at my life, every thing crazy that has happened is because someone or I had alcohol in our system.

The actress revealed that she can also be celibate, although she is dating.

“They went together,” Haddish said, advocating cutting out alcohol and sex at the same time.

Haddish’s memoir also forced her to reveal the heartache she experienced during her reproductive health battle, People reported.

The Grammy-winning comedian learned last 12 months that she suffers from endometriosis, a condition in which endometrium grows outside the uterus and may cause pelvic pain.

“I’m pretty sure the devil exists,” Haddish said, “because the first day of my period, regardless of what, the devil goes berserk. “I feel like my life is being turned upside down.”

Although Haddish has learned to deal with her heavy and painful periods, the most serious potential side effect of endometriosis for her is pregnancy loss. The “Haunted Mansion” star revealed that she has suffered eight miscarriages, and although she is not completely convinced about getting married a second time or becoming a mother, part of her wants to.

“I have all this love in me,” Haddish told People, “I should give it to someone who can grow with it.”
