Whoopi Goldberg is never one to back away from sharing whatever is on her mind and this morning was no exception. She opened up on ?The View? about her struggle with drug addiction.
?I was a functioning drug addict. I went to work because I knew if I didn?t show up, a lot of people would be out of work and I wouldn?t get a check and I wouldn?t have the lifestyle that I needed to buy all my drugs.
She explains the lowest point of her addiction ? when she realized that enough was enough:
?I winded up sitting on a bed for three or four days scared there was something under the bed. I wet the bed, I pooped the bed, I did all kinds of stuff and my roommate came back and said, ?What is going on?? I said, ?There?s something under the bed?? ?I was so scared and that?s when I knew. Not only did I hit bottom but I was like, is that me?? I was a grown woman and look at what I did to myself. I did films during that time.?
She stands as an example to others that addictions CAN be beat:
?Look where I am now, I?m straight as an arrow.?
Wow, I give her a lot of credit for being so blunt and honest about her experience. Did you catch the show this morning?
