A Father to His Men: Despite what he might say, Walter cares deeply about his crew. Hell, he takes on a bunch of cops to help a prostitute escape because she was nice to him.

The Alcoholic: Alcohol is Walter's primary vice. Harry carries around a flask and makes sure Walter has a swig every now and then as a pick-me-up.

comment
Functional Addict: Walter is in the grips of severe substance abuse but that doesn't stop him from doing his job. In the pilot he's seen abusing alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine (that's been spiked with speed). He's also seen taking an extra-large dose of Ambien (later revealed to be Oxycontin) having been told that the pills were actually a new type of amphetamine but still manages to film a segment while completely blacked out.
