LINDSAY LOHAN BLAMES FATHER FOR DRUGS

Lindsay Lohan


Licking Lindsay Lohan is blaming her father for exacerbating her drug problems, because she hit "rock bottom" after he began talking to the press about her private life. Michael Lohan first spoke up about his notorious daughter in 2007, and has subsequently become very well known for talking about his grievances about their relationship in public. Lindsay has entered rehab twice in 2007, is very insistent her dad's decision to talk about her in the media made her problems worse, and her drug taking spiraled out of control. She tells the British newspaper The Sun, "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. People need to know that. 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 can feel emotions because I choose to. I learned from my mistakes and now I'm healthy and happier. "I never want to be close to losing everything I worked for and aspired to my whole life. 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." She also says, "Mind-altering substances are so dangerous. If I can teach others, especially teens, by sharing my experiences, then that's what I will continue to do. I've made some dreadful mistakes but learned from them - that has probably saved my life."
