AceShowbiz - YBN Nahmir has gotten candid about his alcohol addiction. Taking to his social media account, the "Rubbin Off the Paint" rapper blamed the addiction for making him push away people he "cares about."

"Alright y'all, I feel like it's best for me to just get this out my system. For 3 years I've been struggling with an alcoholic addiction," the 22-year-old hip-hop artist tweeted on Monday, March 21. "I've changed so much due to it, & not in the right ways. I've pushed so many of my love [sic] ones away & the people I care about because of it."

Nahmir, whose real name is Nicholas Alexander Simmons, further explained that he's "constantly tried to slow down / stop [himself] from drinking, but it's not easy at all." The "Opp Stoppa" emcee added, "This year I want a new challenge & the challenge is for me to get clean. I never knew addiction was this hard. Before hand it was easy for me to block it out, but now it's taking a toll."

"It's just been a lot going on in my life behind close doors that I leave off the internet," Nahmir continued in a separate Twitter post. He then told his followers that "the only thing [he] wanna do now in life is get help, therapy or even rehab," before noting that he wants "to feel like [himself] again & get [his] family back." He also said "sorry," before admitting that he "slipped."

"If you're struggling with addiction it's best to seek help. That's all I'm trying to do," Nahmir stated. "I use to think this was just some 'normal s**t' until I realized I'm NOT THE SAME ANYMORE. S**t is one of the worst feelings ever."
