While working at WPGC, Beck met his first wife, Claire.
In 1983, the couple married and had two daughters, Mary and Hannah.
Mary developed cerebral palsy as a result of a series of strokes at birth in 1988.
The couple divorced in 1994 amid Beck's struggles with substance abuse.
He is a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, and has said he has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Beck later admitted that the family problems ranging from the divorce to his substance abuse had a severe negative impact on his children.

By 1994, Beck was suicidal, and he imagined shooting himself to the music of Kurt Cobain.
He credits Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) with helping him achieve sobriety.
He said he stopped drinking alcohol and smoking cannabis in November 1994, the same month he attended his first AA meeting.
Beck later said that he had gotten high every day for the previous 15 years, since the age of 16.

In 1996, while working for a New Haven area radio station, Beck took a theology class at Yale University, with a written recommendation from Senator Joe Lieberman, a Yale alumnus who was a fan of Beck's show at the time.
Beck enrolled in an "Early Christology" course, but soon withdrew, marking the extent of his post-secondary education.

Beck then began a "spiritual quest" in which he "sought out answers in churches and bookstores".
As he later recounted in his books and stage performances, Beck's first attempt at self-education involved reading the work of six wide-ranging authors, constituting what Beck jokingly calls "the library of a serial killer": Alan Dershowitz, Pope John Paul II, Adolf Hitler, Billy Graham, Carl Sagan, and Friedrich Nietzsche.
During this time, Beck's Mormon friend and former radio partner Pat Gray argued in favor of the "comprehensive worldview" offered by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, an offer that Beck rejected until a few years later. (
Later, after Beck's moving to  the New York City area, he had a consultation with Graham, which Beck said touched him strongly.)

In 1999, Beck married his second wife, Tania.
After they went looking for a faith on a church tour together, they joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in October 1999, partly at the urging of his daughter Mary.
Beck was baptized by his old friend, and current-day co-worker Pat Gray.
Beck and Tania have had two children together, Raphe (who is adopted) and Cheyenne.
Until April 2011, the couple lived in New Canaan, Connecticut, with the four children.

Beck announced in July 2010 that he had been diagnosed with macular dystrophy, saying "A couple of weeks ago I went to the doctor because of my eyes, I can't focus my eyes.
He did all kinds of tests and he said, 'you have macular dystrophy ... you could go blind in the next year.
Or, you might not.'"
The disorder can make it difficult to read, drive or recognize faces.

In July 2011, Beck leased a house in the Fort Worth suburb of Westlake, Texas.
In 2012, he moved his main TV and radio studios to Dallas, Texas.

On November 10, 2014, Beck announced on TheBlaze that he had been suffering from a severe neurological disorder for at least the last five years.
He described many strong and debilitating symptoms which made it difficult for him to work, and he also announced that he had "a string of health issues that quite honestly made me look crazy, and quite honestly, I have felt crazy because of them".
Beck related that a chiropractor who specializes in "chiropractic neurology", Frederick Carrick, had "diagnosed [him] with several health issues, including an autoimmune disorder, which he didn't name, and adrenal fatigue."
Over a period of ten months he had received a series of treatments and felt better.
A number of medical experts have expressed doubt about the legitimacy of Beck's diagnosis, treatment, and the credentials of the chiropractor, with Yale University neurologist Steven Novella dismissing chiropractic neurology as "pseudoscience": "Chiropractic neurology does not appear to be based on any body of research, or any accumulated scientific knowle
