Cara Delevingne is opening up about her shocking drug spiral that led to those infamous post-Burning Man photos -- admitting she had no idea just how serious things had become.

Speaking on "Call Her Daddy," the British model said the shocking 2022 images served as a major wake-up call ... especially because she'd convinced herself she could have one last blowout for her 30th birthday before getting sober.

Spencer says he never expected the reality TV gravy train to come to a screeching halt, so he wasn't treating the money like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Plus, as he points out, he wasn't spending anyone else's money but his own ... and definitely wasn't touching taxpayer dollars.
