If you quit for anyone other than yourself, you can lose your focus on why you quit at all and start up again.

It's sad you would only "quit" doing drugs or anything for "yourself' when you have children that depend and need you for their very lives. That is low but not uncommon in a hollywood lifestyle.

I wish her nothing but the best and I hope this is the time it sticks for her. I personally don't know the hell of
drug or alcohol addiction, but I do know what it took to quit smoking and that was bad enough for me. Keep up the good work Brooke!!!

Yeah, Brooke's going to do everythingto try to impress a judge because the prosecutor hasn't offered a deal and Charlie goaded the police after her arrest.

I really feel sorry for those kids. I doubt she'll stay clean.

OMG!!! Who CARES! Why is this chick and all her addictive problems even news worthy!

Not impressed. The only reason she's doing all of this is to stay out of jail. I don't believe her heart is in it. When she can stay sober a year ON HER OWN then I will say kudos.

Quiting in a controled environment is one thing. Permanently abstaining altogether is another.

I give Brooke credit she keeps trying. I wasn't a *first-time winner* either. You know what say, "If you don't get AA, AA will get you." Just keep coming, Brooke. And stick with the winners. All any of us have is one day. Good luck.
