With all this Lindsay talk, a very interesting article has surfaced, titled "If Lindsay Lohan is 'Pathetic', Then So Am I: What It Feels Like For a Drug Addict". The article takes a very interesting look at Linds' struggle, noting that her behavior really isn't that out of character for a recovering drug addict and that the media's treatment of the situation is down right wrong.
"Does Lindsay really “want” to get better? I don’t know, nobody knows that but Lindsay, and certainly Perez Hilton doesn’t — although that doesn’t stop him from scrawling “LOST CAUSE” over a LiLo photograph.
We act like kicking a drug addiction is easy. It isn’t easy.
I know this, because I’ve been there."
I have to say, I somewhat agree with the article. While I definitely don't agree with celebrities getting any sort of special treatment when the screw up (as Miss Lohan clearly has), I think that the media's constant deprecation of this young woman is completely wrong. When some one is in such a trying time, the last thing they need is everyone in the world offering throwing negative, degrading comments their way.
So in honor of this article, I say we all should just leave Lindsay alone!
