A source told Us Weekly the actor looked 'happy' as he headed inside the facility.

'He was in such a good mood and looked refreshed,' the source said.

On Wednesday, In Touch reported Affleck was being urged by close friends to enter inpatient rehab, and many of those concerned are allegedly hoping he will check-in for his longest stint yet.

'He's spiraling out of control,' explained a source, who said the actor's drinking has 'gotten worse.'

The confidant believes it's 'only a matter of time' before Affleck returns to rehab, with the source insisting the actor desires 'nothing more than to be present for his family and girlfriend.'

'He knows he needs to check back into rehab,' said a confidant. 'The problem is that he wants to go on his terms. He wants to do it on his time, but like most addicts, that time keeps getting put off. This relapse has gone on too long already.'

The source added that whenever the actor is in treatment, he takes his recovery 'very seriously' and is also receptive to the advice of staff.

The website also previously reported that Affleck was drinking at an Emmy after-party, where Lindsay celebrated her Emmy win with a champagne toast.

'I want my kids to know there is no shame in getting help when you need it, and to be a source of strength for anyone out there who needs help but is afraid to take the first step.

'I'm lucky to have the love of my family and friends, including my co-parent, Jen, who has supported me and cared for our kids as I've done the work I set out to do.

'This was the first of many steps being taken towards a positive recovery.'

Affleck previously completed a stint in rehab in 2001.

The actor was married to Jennifer Garner for ten years before the couple announced their split in 2015 and filed for divorce in 2017.

They have daughters Violet, 11, Seraphina, 8, and son Samuel, 5, together.
