The 50-year-old Blink-182 bassist recalled a time after his lymphoma diagnosis when he was “in the living room crying” as he told his wife Skye, “I don’t know if I can do this,” according to a new interview with People. But the darkest depths of the musician’s depression have since receded and he has been back on track with his old life since doctors declared him cancer-free in September 2021. Dark days: Mark Hoppus, 50, revealed in an interview with People on Wednesday that he had considered suicide during the darkest parts of his cancer journey. appeared in November 2021 Hoppus explained how “dark” his thoughts had become after making his tearful confession to his wife. He was like, “So what are you going to do, kill yourself?” And that’s exactly what I was thinking. It was pretty dark,” he said. But he found his wife’s blunt question a “definite moment” that helped him distance himself from negative thoughts. I was like, “What if I say something.” But also, what a kind thing to say, like, “Snap out of it, baby. You’ve got a beatable form of cancer. It’s going to suck to get there, but get there.” I had to do the work.’ Saying it out loud: Hoppus recalled tearfully confessing, “I don’t know if I can do this,” to his wife Skye, who asked, “So what are you going to do, kill yourself?” Wake-up call: He found his wife’s blunt question a ‘snapshot’. I was like, “What if I say something.” But also, what a kind thing to say, like, ‘Snap out of it, baby.’” Although Hoppus’ cancer was already stage four when he was diagnosed in April 2021, indicating that the cancer had already spread from his lymph nodes to at least one organ — according to the American Cancer Society — lymphoma is more treatable at this stage stage from some other forms of cancer. However, she said the chemotherapy treatments she underwent were “brutal”. “I had no energy and ended up on the couch trying to get through the day,” she said. “I had the worst brain fog.” The pop-punk rocker recalled one time he was having dinner with friends when he realized he couldn’t remember the first name of one of his friends’ husbands. “And it’s been that way all along,” he added. “I still feel it once every couple of days – I’ll forget a word – but it’s much better.” Outside of it: “I had no energy and ended up on the couch trying to get through the day,” she said. ‘I had the worst brain fog,’ he said of his ‘brutal’ chemotherapy treatments Mark also revealed that discovering a tumor was what started his cancer journey. “I texted my doctor: ‘Hey, weird lump on my shoulder. It’s either a pulled muscle or a deadly lymphoma,” he said. “I was trying to make a joke out of it.” But his amateur diagnosis turned out to be right on the money. In addition to the tumor in his shoulder, doctors discovered several others, including tumors in his stomach and elsewhere in his abdomen, along with a worrying tumor on his neck that was the size of a grape. In the confusion and chaos of the early days after the diagnosis was when he accidentally posted gallows humor — a photo of himself with the caption, “Hey, yeah. A cure for cancer please” — on social media, instead of the friend he meant to send it to. But after five months of treatment and the cancer in remission, Hoppus is slowly but surely back to normal. “I’m doing well today. The recovery is taking a lot longer than I had hoped, but I am in a much better place,” he said. “I feel like I have a second chance at life.” On the upswing: Declared cancer-free in September 2021. “I’m doing well today.
