“I’ve been sober 22 years, off of an alcohol and pain pill addiction,” she said, adding that the “process of being a sober person puts you in the one day at a time mentality.”
“Try to stay out of the future and try to forget the past, because it’s over and you can’t do anything about it anyway. Try to live a present life,” she said.
She had earlier spoken about the affective of addiction during a chat with ET back in 2002.
“It kills people. It killed my brother. It kills young people, old people, it ruins families. It’s ruinous,” she added.
