I remained Ryan's companion on the Hollywood party circuit, growing inured to sex and drugs before I was in my teens.

I've overcome neglect and deprivation, abandonment and abuse.

Things get so sloppy when you're under the influence.

I've purged myself of bitterness and anger and remained open to love.

I was punished for blowing the whistle on my father's lifestyle.

I have a temper, but I wouldn't call me abusive.

Certain struggles never end.
