How does a boy who grew up living a normal, average life turn chaotic? When How I Met Your Mother star Josh Radnor was growing up, he took the bus to school, watched the same TV programs that any other kid raised in his generation watched, but then he became a famous actor. That sounds like the big story, right? WRONG!

The real story is obviously about the time he ended up doing hallucinogens with a shaman in Brazil!

The book One Big Blissful Thing written by Josh Radnor tells everything from the stories of his younger years in Ohio to ayahuasca ceremonies in the Amazon in 2007. Ayahuasca is a hallucinogenic plant used in some Amazonian tribes’ rituals.

By releasing this book, Josh Radnor adds his name to a list of celebrities who have opened up to the public about their history of drug use. While it sounds like this book will have a funnier, more entertaining twist to it, several celebs have taken the more serious route by pouring out their drug and alcohol abuse issues for the world to see. These stars include Steven Tyler, Keith Richards, Courtney Love, Anthony Kiedis, Darrell Hammond, Russell Brand, Steve-O, Scott Weiland and Billy Joel.
