As Radar previously reported, the 52-year-old was charged with a misdemeanor count of driving while under the influence of drugs, after concerned onlookers reported him to Los Angeles police .

“I had a horrific DUI, which I’m so embarrassed by. I could’ve hurt somebody. It’s really stupid and ignorant of me, and I hated myself for that,” he told Stern during their candid interview.

“I had to stop this up and down. I was on some medications, antidepressants and that damn Ambien,” Stamos continued. “I’m so happy to be off of that. My memory was starting to get really [bleeped] up — that was the hardest thing to kick, by the way.”

The hunky star also revealed that leading up to his June arrest , he’d been struggling with his mother’s death, calling her “the love of my life.”
