You don't have the judgment after you've had the drink. If something truly catastrophic had happened that evening, I don't know how I could have lived with myself. I feel like I've gotten a second chance.
I knew that by getting behind the wheel of the car and having had something to drink, the responsibility laid on my shoulders.
I remember that all of a sudden, the car felt like I couldn't control it. It was absolutely the most horrifying experience. We rolled over, off the freeway. I think there was something wrong with the car.
I will never have a drink and get behind the wheel of a car. It's not illegal to drink and drive, but there becomes a certain point where it does become a crime.
I'm not a religious person. I'm Catholic, so I consider myself more of a spiritual person. I believe in God.
I had years of therapy to recover from this. A lot of it had to with being a people pleaser, being the ultimate good girl. I wanted everyone to like me. I didn't really have a voice. I was afraid of growing up.
I've got a pretty good appetite right now.
I have faith in the justice system, and what will happen will happen. I'm just trying to do the right thing.
I've been so in my moment about my life.
You can stay in therapy your whole life, but you've got to live life and not talk about life.
You can't enjoy life if you're not nourishing your body.
