Lindsey Lohan Interview Was Sad To See [View all]

[TheMastersNemesis]

Even though Lindsey Lohan has created a lot of her own problems, I was really sad for how fragile she seemed. Her demeanor reminded me of Marilyn Monroe and her psychological fragility. It is easy to criticize but when you resort to drugs and alcohol it is more of a symptom of other problems that have not been addressed.

I have dealt with such people in my years as an employment rep at DOL and it is very hard to work with such people whose vulnerability and problems run so deep. And it is difficult in the face of the fact that it is hard to find a strategy that will help such and individual help themselves. The failure rate is sadly very high.

For whatever reasons addictions are so hard to treat or reverse and shows how far we have to go in treating mental health issues. Somehow it seems like we are caught in the middle ages where "casting out demons" through exorcism was the usual treatment.

For all those people who want to see someone like Lindsey beat her demons it is hard to standby and watch someone erode before your eyes.

I was surprised that Lettermen seemed to be so hard on her. Somehow being relegated to being part of a low grade movie like Scary Movie does not seem like a success to me. Many 1950's B movies are better than that trash.
