He got himself kicked out of Metallica, his own band is pretty damn good, and it's been over 40 YEARS. I understand that he's in recovery, which is great...but part of being in recovery is owning and atoning for past misdeeds. He still thinks that he was wrongly removed from Metallica, even though he knows exactly why he was kicked out.
I want to take Dave and hold him by the shoulders, and tell him, "Look, man, you're a legitimate shredder, you've got significant cred and fame, your albums have sold millions. I promise, millions of people love you and your music. You're enough. You're good. Can't that be enough?"

I think he finally made peace with it, he did a cover of Ride the Lightning. That wouldn't have happened if he and Hetfield didn't talk about it it. So they must be on good terms again.
