Lindsay Lohan: Daddy's Girl

Putting the Pieces Together

Lindsay, who is currently in rehab (again) at the Cirque Lodge located in Sundance Utah, is reportedly taking a leave of absence from her $900 a day program to spend some time with her estranged father. Michael Lohan reportedly told E! that he and Lindsay will spend five days of one-on-one time discussing, among other things, the drug Vivitrol. This once-a-month injection is designed to suppress alcohol cravings and Michael Lohan thinks that it's something his daughter should consider. Spending time with her dad has got to be a sure sign that Lindsay is attempting to put the pieces of her life and career back together and begin anew. As a result, she will hopefully come out stronger, smarter and wiser then she was when she went in.

Continued Recovery

12-step programs are only effective if you actually work the program. Since Lindsay is seemingly working on step number eight, the step in which you make amends with those whom you have wronged while you were addicted, it seems as though she is taking it seriously this time. Unfortunately, everyone has heard this same song and dance before -- hopefully, it sticks this time for Lindsay, who is reportedly continuing her treatment on an outpatient basis while filming her new movie Dare to Love Me.

Growing Up

Over the past year, there have been a rash of young, beautiful and talented Hollywood starlets that have, for lack of a better phrase, run amok. Drinking, partying and abusing not only alcohol, but drugs as well. These ladies seem to have it all -- beauty, money, talent and fame -- but don't have a clue how to handle it. It's time to grow up ladies, you aren't kids anymore. Handle your responsibilities and deal with your problems like the adults you now are. It sounds like Lindsay Lohan is at least trying to do so.
