Lindsay Lohan: 'I Am Addicted to Alcohol and Drugs'
Lindsay Lohan issued a statement shortly after her lawyer negotiated a plea deal for the actress in her DUI cases on Thursday, taking responsibility for her actions and saying she suffers from drug and alcohol addiction.
"It is clear to me that my life has become completely unmanageable because I am addicted to alcohol and drugs," she said in a statement.
"Recently, I relapsed and did things for which I am ashamed. I broke the law, and today I took responsibility by pleading guilty to the charges in my case. No matter what I said when I was under the influence on the day I was arrested, I am not blaming anyone else for my conduct other than myself. I thank God I did not injure others. I easily could have.
"I very much want to be healthy and gain control of my life and career and have asked for medical help in doing so. I am taking these steps to improve my life. Luckily, I am not alone in my daily struggle and I know that people like me have succeeded. Maybe with time it will become easier. I hope so."

She is just trying to redeem herself. This means nothing, the proof is in the pudding. She is just trying to cover her a$$.

I think the hour she will spend in jail will really have a huge impact on her to stay clean and sober!

Re: Lindsay Lohan: 'I Am Addicted to Alcohol and Drugs'
Ok, I honestly don't know if I buy her "I'm an addict" speech.
I feel like she's a spoiled, immature brat who thinks she is above the law when it comes to drugs and alcohol.
Yes, she obviously is partying too much and abusing drugs and alcohol, but is she really an addict?
Addiction is a serious problem and people who suffer from addiction to drugs and alcohol are very sick.
I feel like by saying she is "addicted," she is copping out, e.g. she couldn't control her actions because of her addiction.
Just my opinion - I'll step off my soap box now!
