She said she would be doing updates on a podcast. Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne's daughter assured fans she was "sober today" and would be sober in the coming days.
Though it isn't easy, she knows she can make it "one day at a time." Talking about her addiction, Osbourne told hosts Jada Pinkett Smith, her daughter, Willow Smith and her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, where it all started.
Her drug dependence stemmed from prescription drugs after a tonsillectomy aged 13. Hense began a lifelong battle against opiate-based drug addiction.
The Fashion Police alum says it was everything she needed - giving her comfort after hearing voices in her head talking about her insecurities. 'You're fat, you're ugly, you're not good enough, no one likes you, you don't deserve this, people only like you because of who your parents are," she said. The voices disappeared after taking Vicodin.
Pinkett Smith said: "Vicodin will do that." From Vicodin, The Osbournes star went to Percocet and, eventually, heroin "because it was cheaper."
