Mathew Perry rose to the peak of his stardom with the iconic role of Chandler Bing on Friends (1994-2004). Before his death, he was receiving ketamine infusion therapy to fight depression and anxiety, reported Variety. Ketamine is used to treat opioid use disorder. The actor has been vocal about his struggles with addiction and sobriety, which led to Perry setting up a sober living facility for other men with similar problems.
