It’s no secret that she’s had her battles, and Lindsay Lohan recently opened up about her struggles with substance abuse.
LiLo says she used drinking and drugs to help alleviate the stress and drama that was going on in her personal life.
“When my father was going public, that’s when I hit rock bottom. I abused substances too much and it wasn’t the answer to my problems. I tried to mask my problems with alcohol, cocaine, and mind-altering substances. Now I’m in a place where I don’t need to use anything and I feel emotions because I choose to. I never want to be close to losing everything I worked for and aspired to have my whole life. I’ve made some dreadful mistakes but learned from them — that has probably saved my life.”
Lindsay also revealed that she was introduced to cocaine by her father’s example.“I was only aware of cocaine because of my dad. I was terrified of it. But I tried it because I was stubborn, stupid and wanted to see what it was like. It’s not something I ever want to do again. It made me feel like s**t. It became uninteresting to me. I’m hyper anyway and I have that kind of personality, so I don’t need something like that.”
