Addiction specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky feels that both Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton are experiencing similar downward spirals.
Here’s a statement from Dr. Drew:
“Paris Hilton’s current problems related to her drug arrest and subsequent criminal charges are very much similar to the Lindsay Lohan story. It’s truly Lindsay Lohan’s story in slow motion.├óΓé¼┬¥
More from Dr. Drew:
“There is no doubt in my mind that Paris needs to seek treatment, sooner rather than later. Whether it be in-patient treatment at a rehab facility, or out-patient, Paris needs help.”
And more:
“People don’t believe that someone can be addicted to pot, I’m here to tell you they are dead wrong. I deal with it everyday. The fact that she had several run-ins over the summer, and then was arrested in Las Vegas for possession of cocaine gives me cause to worry.├óΓé¼┬¥
Hmmmm!
Here’s more on addiction from the good doctor:
├óΓé¼┼ôAddiction is a progressive disease. It’s progression in the face of consequences and denial that are defining features of the disease. Paris meets that criteria.”
More on Dr. Drew’s thoughts about Paris’ addiction:
├óΓé¼┼ôRecreational drug users don’t have the issues that arise that she is currently dealing with. Paris could be using the cocaine because it might have more of a euphoric effect on her.”
And a final statement from Dr. Drew:
“I wish her only the best. I truly hope she gets the help she needs. She is facing a very serious drug charge and if this forces her to get help that she otherwise might not have, then that is a very good thing for her.”
Inneresting!
Do U think Paris and Lindsay are in similar situations?
