The only difference between Ms. Lohan and my own entitled, miserable, demanding drunks and junkies is the level of income.
I have a quote from PK Dick that I keep taped to the desk.
"Drug use is not a disease, it is a decision, much like the decision to step out in front of a moving. car."
The disease model has screwed up effective treatment for years ... "Oooh, cool, it's NOT my fault. It's my genes, it's my alcoholic dad, it's my spoiled and pampered upbringing." None of those things forced your arm to go up and down to your mouth.
And she needs a new shrink ... no responsible doctor should be prescribing benzos or amphetamines to someone who already has an addictions diagnosis. That's another thing I see far too often. Adderall handed out like candy to speedfreaks.
She's got a whole new career in front of her, anyway ... next season on Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. I look forward to seeing her argue with Tom Sizemore around the pool.
