Lindsay Lohan suffers from alcohol and painkillers · 2007-06-01 17:30
Lindsay Lohan’s father says the actress suffers from multiple addictions, including alcohol and the painkiller OxyContin.
The 20-year-old checked into rehab Monday following a weekend that included crashing her Mercedes, being arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence and being photographed slumped in the passenger seat of a friend’s car. This is her second rehab stint this year, Hollywood reporter reports.
“I spoke to the people treating Lindsay, because I wanted to make sure she was getting the right care,” Michael Lohan told E! Online. “And I’m satisfied they are doing the right thing for her, helping her detox from the painkillers and things. That’s a very important step.”
Michael Lohan was released from a New York state prison in March after serving almost two years for driving while intoxicated and other charges. He said he is studying to become a drug-rehab counselor with the faith-based organization Teen Challenge.
