I’d been working my whole life and [now] I was doing nothing,” she said at the time. “I had a lot of time on my hands and I would ‘wake and bake’ and literally be stoned all day long. … [I was] hanging out with a seedier crowd and I isolated a lot…I got really into my drug usage and it became a really dark, sad world for me.”
