Lindsay Lohan and more…

[CoachSue]

I believe the only thing left is death. She's been to rehab 5 times already, a couple of stints at the morgue etc. Prison might save her.

As a recovering alcoholic myself, I believe the only thing left for LiLo is for her to hit rock bottom - emotionally and spiritually. Rehab won't help - she's been there, done that. She won't get sober until she's ready, and for most of us, that means facing some type of consequences. Perhaps jail will do that for her - I'm not sure though, because of all the enablers in her life.

My suggestion would be to get her through a safe physical detox medically, then off to a sober living facility outside of both coasts (say, Montana maybe?) for at least a year. She needs to have NOBODY else to lean on, and then maybe she will surrender to her disease and get the help she needs. If not, I'm pretty sure we will read of her passing sometime very soon...

There are overweight people everywhere, and I assure you that I'm not one of them. I've always been very conscious about my weight and consider LL to be quite thin. When I was in my 20s, I was 5'4" and weighed 108. I didn't look as thin as LiLo looks in those photos.

I think she looks quite thin too. I follow celebrity info all the time. At one point, Lindsay did admit she had an eating disorder. I've read it on MSM articles as well as in Vanity Fair and other girly magazines. However, this was several years ago when she was rail thin (under 100 pnds). She appears to be on the thin/slender side now but still appears to be a healthy weight for her height. I worry with this drinking and violence nonsense, her eating issues may come to surface again. I want this Lindsay to come back!

IMO, she looked healthy and beautiful back in her "Mean Girls" days. You could even see the gorgeous glow in her face!

So sad.

Jail will not help her or any other alcoholic or drug addict. It never does, usually makes it worse upon release trying to make up for lost time. Also toss in that jail for stars is not what jail is for the rest of us.

Rehab will not help, unless she really wants to quit, again, rehab for stars is different than what it is for the rest of us.

What LL needs, and is probably looking for, is a very strong and caring person in her life. Not yes men, not enabling parents and friends. She is probably hoping a good man will come along, but that will not happen while she is a mess. She needs years of intensive and direct therapy, even though I must admit, it may not help heal or alter anything. Rock bottom is near, I just hope it is not death.

Intervention is useless when she has already tried rehab so many times. Only she can decide. If intervention pisses her off, she'll just party more.

In all honesty, the over dependence and use of drugs and alcohol is her way of a slow suicide. Self medicating ended years ago and turned into subconscious suicide. If only she had a real friend all these years.

As far as drinking that much alcohol to get to a .50, I have seen it before. It is possible. It is scary sad and can only go on for so long before your heart or liver stop.

I don't know what will help her. I just hope she actually SEES the signs immediately, just wakes up and realizes she has to quit, and does. I don't think she can see it. I don't think she will be able to if she stays messed up and everyone tells her her actions are fun, funny, or not serious. Such a broken soul.

I know she is an alcoholic, and a train wreck, but this time, I think she was scammed by the Gypsy fortune teller and her husband. I think they saw a drunk vulnerable celeb, and took advantage of it. Just like the pedestrian that falsely accused her of running into him when she was driving by. From now on she is going to be taken advantage like this all of the time. She will be accused of hitting people or stealing things and sometimes it will be true and sometimes it won't. JMO

haven't seen any posts re yesterday's news that the IRS has frozen LL's bank accts to recover about 100k in unpaid taxes

I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH for this post. I lost my sister to alcoholism almost 2 years ago. So many true statements in your post. Wow. Thanks. This is how it is people....Those who haven't had the experience of dealing with someone with addiction issues. They slowly kill themselves. With alcohol or what their choice is. And the people that love them stand by and watch, helplessly.

I absolutely think we will wake up one day and hear Lindsay is dead.

 

[gitana1]

The it's my parents fault excuse might be understandable at 17; age 26 is far past time to continue to blame her parents.

I haven't once heard Lindsay blame her parents.

I'm doing that, however. At least to some degree. I think psychology has shown that who we are raised by influences our personalities to a massive degree and can cause horrible harm - eating disorders, anxiety and depression, personality disorders, drug and alcohol abuse, etc.

Do you say that a girl who was molested all her life is suddenly a whole, healed human just because she turns 26 years of age, or 18 or whatever?

Now I'm not saying Lindsay's parents molested her but it is clear that they are horrible, horrible people who did not care for her and only wanted her money. I mean, just look at this: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbPLge9sF4w"]Lohan Family on Dr. Phil - Dina Breaks Down - YouTube[/ame]

And unless people who have been raised by creeps are assisted by years of good therapy and possibly friends or other family they can trust who tell it to them straight, they will not magically heal and they can often end up much like Lindsay. Not all, but many.

Yes, it is her responsibility as an adult to try to figure out what help she needs and to get it and not do harm to others. However, when a person has never been given the tools to be a normal, functioning adult, it's a catch 22. They have a responsibility but have a very difficult time understanding it and knowing how to live responsibly.

I don't mean to say that people with bad childhoods should be excused for the evil they do in life. But when it comes to self destruction, I have some sympathy.

I guess this hits close to home right now, in a way. A dear friend of mine is also a horrible heroin addict. He is a kind, good, smart person with a crazy big heart. But he was never loved.
His mother had him at 17. She tried to abort him but couldn't go through with it (back alley). She kept him but never hugged or kissed him. Never said one kind word. As a result of that and the food he should have been given being given instead to all of his mom's latest flings, he grew to be quite small.
His family is rife with addicts. His horrible siblings would come over when he was trying to get sober and cause extreme drama, sucking the life and energy from him and bringing drugs, just enticing him to use again.
I have watched him struggle with addiction for 8 years, an endless cycle. I just lost track of him as he hit the lowest point I've seen him at, losing everything, his job, his car, his place.
I believe he is going to end up dead of an overdose. But I understand why. He was irreparably damaged by a lack of love. Drugs gave him the comfort a parent never did. Watching him struggle I realize the impossibility of his task. To me it is very hard to understand unless you live it or witness it.

I agree katydid, and that's why she needs a bodyguard to run interference for her. People will scam celebs all the time if given the opportunuty.

I don't know if the woman is Roma ("Gypsy") but her surname is a typical American Rom name. So is that of her husband "Stevens."

ETA: Here she looks Romani:

Here, not as much:

But, I think those are actually two people. Take a look at this picture:

http://theblemish.com/2012/11/lindsay-lohan-punched-woman-in-face/tiffany-mitchell-victim/

The lady on the left looks like some of the photos of Mitchell and the one in the middle looks like others. Which one is she? In any event, in this photo, they both look Romani to me.

And her husband? Definitely:

I can't tell which one it is with Gloria Allred:

http://realitytvmagazine.sheknows.com/category/punkd/

In any event, I don't know if Lindsay was scammed. Most Rom are not scammers. I should know, I am one. Well, half. My dad is Spanish Gypsy from Spain (and my mom's from Holland). Almost all my family in Spain are or were in the entertainment industry (Flamenco). My screen name means "Gypsy" in Spanish. BTW, just for interest sake, its pronounced "Hee tah nah". I realized at some point that most people pronounce it "Gih-tah-nuh"!

 

[iluvmua]

Lindsay has been following the band The Wanted around; She was at their Philly, NYC & Boston dates and now she's currently in London with them and she's also going to dubai with them as well.

She has a court date tomorrow (which she isn't required to attend) plus, she major broke, can't pay her $8,000 monthly rent on her pad in BH.

And she went clubbing last night in NYC.

I'll be shocked if she makes it to 27.

LL is constantly blaming either her bad childhood or her parents.

I have NO sympathy or empathy for her.

 

[gramcracker]

also being reported this morning that she stiffed Bravo's Million Dollar Makeover program

she was cooperative in the beginning and filmed the "before" segments last spring, but has since reneged on completing the deal after accepting 200k worth of renovations

is not returning Bravo's calls and is not making herself available to film the "after" segments

If she was a little child, sure I'd feel horrible for her. However, she's a grown woman. I was raised in a horrible household, abused by both biological parents who were drug addicts, abandoned by both of them and still haven't seen my bio mother since I was 8 years old and I am now 28. I for one am living proof that just because you come from a bad or abusive family/background doesn't mean you're going to act out and become a nut case yourself. If anything, I would think the challenges Lohan had faced in her life would have made her a stronger, caring and a more compassionate person. I am just so sick of everyone blaming their actions on their past or on "bad" parents. Give me a freaking break. :twocents: There comes a point where you need to start taking responsibility for your own actions.

Yep, there are MANY people who, like yourself come from bad backgrounds but they don't sit on their rear saying " I've been delt a bad start in life and so my background is going to define who I am".

It seems to me this is what Lindsay is doing. IF she was 17, I might be sympathetic to her situation but she's a 26 year old grown woman.

you would think it would instead of her being a spoiled, rich brat we've been seeing for the past 10 years.

She thinks the world owes her a huge favor because of who she is.

No normal person would continue to get away with the constant crap she does, but since she is a "celebrity", they just let her skate on by.

I give her less than a year.

Lindsay Lohan Burns Bravo’s ‘Million Dollar Decorators’

by Tracy Phillips | December 11, 2012 at 11:35 AM | TV News

Lindsay Lohan can’t seem to stop making trouble for herself.

Lohan booked an appearance on an upcoming episode of “Million Dollar Decorators” but, according to TMZ, she has become difficult to work with and is refusing to film the “big reveal” of her renovated home for the Bravo show...

And she wants to call OTHERS scammers and thieves? :what: (Reference to her 'gypsy' comment, but I will not use gypsy in a derogatory manner in context in a sentence, sorry)

Ok, I'm coming back to amend this reactionary statement. We do not know the details yet. Bring them on. Then I'll rant. Hahah.

 

[SapphireSteel]

I read that she's just skipped another court hearing to go on the road with those One Direction boys.

Lindsay, you are 26...not 18!

At 26 I'd been married for two years with a house and a baby on the way, and trust me, I had no wild oats left by that stage.

This girl seems locked in perpetual teenagehood. Everything's a blast, where's the next drink/drug, until dawn comes and you've got a hangover from hell and don't know where in the hell you are.

Grow up.

I wonder if she's sold off some of the stuff to pay her bills so it's not there to film? Seems she's "Selling Her Own Clothes For Cash" so gotta wonder what else she's selling?

According to TMZ, Prosecutors want to give her 8 months in jail (not likely to happen) and they are also planning on revoking her probation tomorrow.

LL is not even half serious about her behavior. IF she really was hell bent on even trying to change, she would at least show up to court even though she is not required to appear.

at this point, only devine intervention will save her.

it's sad the path she has chosen but it's entirely up to her to change direction.
