After baring her body – in a nude photo spread as Marilyn Monroe – Lindsay Lohan is now baring her soul out.
She openly states her fears and problems she faced in the past and her experiences as a rehab patient.
In terms of her well-chronicled, pre-rehab hard-partying ways, “I had a lot going on in my life and that was a way of hiding from it,” she explains. “I hadn’t seen my dad; I had a lot of work stress ’cause I was constantly working and never took time to stop.”
(She now considers the reconciliation with father Michael Lohan, who had spent two years behind bars on a DUI and additional charges, “good for my whole family; it’s healthy.”)
“Everything was go-go-go, and the easiest thing was to run away from it, going out and drinking at night,” she says. “You know, you don’t have to think when you let go sometimes.”
She adds, “But I didn’t realize it was getting in the way of my work – what I’ve worked for my whole life.”
That changed: “There’s not really much else to do when you’re sitting in a treatment center. It’s like, ‘Why am I here? Let’s think,’ ” she concedes.
“Right now I just want to find a great script, a great role,” says Lohan about the future. “I was so used to working and working and working, and for a good few months there was nothing for me to do. Now I know what it’s like to be an out-of-work actor, and how much it scares me.”
Lohan states that she has had a very tough time and is working hard and swears that she will not get back to her old ways.
We wish her Luck and success for all her undertakings.
