<p>Louis C.K. is reflecting on the sexual misconduct allegations that torpedoed his comedy career.</p>
<p>The Louie comedian, who was accused of sexual misconduct by five women in 2017 and later admitted that their allegations were true, said a weight was lifted off of him after his misdeeds came to light.</p>
<p>"When life f---s it up for you, when it gets torn up, it's a relief," the comedian told Theo Von during an interview on This Past Weekend. "That's why I felt free, because I had tried to manage these problems I had inside of me for so many years. And I tried to feel like I was a normal person. Or that I was what I thought of as a good person, but I was doing s--- in the background of my life that I was ashamed of."</p>
<p>He continued, "All of that is, like, you can't manage it. And so when you're in front of the world and that's going on inside of you, it's real hell."</p>

<p>C.K. said he "was hurting other people" while attempting to "tell myself I wasn't" and that some of his misconduct was "on the edge," including "using another person, but you got their permission first."</p>
<p>"You're still using another person," he continued. "You're not being with them, you're using them. That took me a long time to learn about that stuff."</p>
<p>The comedian also said he looks at the fallout of the public accusations against him very differently at this point.</p>
<p>"All of a sudden, nobody likes me," C.K. said. "I was just spinning. It was really wild. But now I look at that thing as a beautiful thing. I look at that as, like, God's hands, or whatever you want to call it. That was just like a good, caring thing that said, 'Dude, you need to stop. You need to stop. You need out of all this.'"</p>
<p>C.K. also extensively discussed his time in Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous meetings, claiming that his story has helped other attendees in the program.</p>

<p>"When I go to a meeting in person and there's a guy who's really hurting, his life's f---ed up and I approach him and he's not sure about being in this program," C.K. began. "He goes, 'Oh, I ruined my life.' And I go, 'Do you know who I am?' And he goes, 'Yeah.' And I go, 'I'm doing pretty good, buddy.'"</p>
<p>He continued, "The fact that my wreckage can be a mountain for folks to lean on, take a little load off — that's a beautiful gift."</p>

<p>C.K. said that he wants to be able to apologize for his behavior on a large scale.</p>
<p>"I really wish I could have a simple kind of watershed where I can say just 'Yes' to everything that happened, and I'm sorry," he said. "I really am. And I'm just trying to do better, and I don't think I can prove that to everybody, 'cause it's a private thing. It's a one-to-one man thing. It's not a famous guy act."</p>
