Jodie Sweetin: I Snorted Meth at Olsen Twins Film Premiere
Friday – October 23, 2009 – 4:50pm
"Life isn't like a Full House episode," writes Jodie Sweetin in her explosive memoir unSweetined (out November 3). She should know. In 1995, after an eight-year run as Stephanie Tanner on the ABC hit, she spiraled into a cycle of drug abuse, including ecstasy and crystal meth. And despite having daughter Zoie in 2008 and proclaiming to People and Good Morning America that she was sober, the two-time divorcee continued to snort cocaine -- and, one reckless night, drove drunk with her baby. Now 27 and clean, Sweetin discusses the book's bombshells with Usmagazine.com.
No. 1: Sweetin got so drunk at costar Candace Cameron's wedding in 1996, she vomited and had to be carried out.
"I probably had two bottles of wine, and I was only 14. That first drink gave me the self confidence I had been searching for my whole life. But that set the pattern of the kind of drinking that I would do."
No. 2: Sweetin graduated to ecstasy in high school and cocaine in college.
"I wanted to prove that I could get more trashed than anyone. There were times I did so much coke, I'd be there laying there, getting sick and thinking 'I'm going to die.' But I didn't care."
No. 3: During the premiere for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's 2004 movie New York Minute, she walked the red carpet "high as a kite" and snorted meth in a bathroom stall.
"I was pulling off the deceit. It was hard for people to believe I was doing that much drugs. I look at photos from that event, and I didn't even look strung out!"
No. 4: When she was 9 months old, Sweetin was adopted. She later learned her biological mom also abused drugs and her dad was killed in a prison riot.
"I would hear stories about my mom leaving me to go off and party. And for years I was like, 'F*** her. How could somebody do that to their kid?' When I started seeing my own addiction getting in the way of being a mom, I finally understood: If you're not in the right place to get sober, you're not ready to be a mom."
Which celebs say they want to be mothers?
No. 5: Though she bragged about her sobriety to Good Morning America and People in June 2008, she was secretly still getting high.
"I was selfish, self-serving, insecure, angry and fearful person living a double life. I covered up my problems by pretending to be happy and saying that everything was fine."
No. 6: She drove drunk with her baby daughter.
"That was the big rock bottom. I had two glasses of wine and drove with her in the car. I not only put myself in danger, but also my daughter, who I loved more than anything. I felt terrible."
No. 7: She's still battling with second husband Cody Herpin for shared custody of Zoie.
"I got sober for good on December 7, 2008. I was flying to L.A. and I ended up taking a bunch of Nyquil and drinking a s---load. When I got home, I got a call that there was an emergency custody investigation because of my drinking. From that day forward, I threw myself into going to AA and avoided people who do blow off their coffee tables. We're working on a custody agreement right now. But life is good. I'm happier than I can remember."

So very sad, she is not clean and sober, never will be, meth takes hold of you and it is the hardest ongoing breakup she will always struggle with. I do hope her child is in good care. -

WOW some people are just rude. CANDACE CAMERON BURE(her name isnt DJ) is not a "religious fanatic" she's just a Christian, like many people. Try seeing the best in people, I'd like to believe she's clean now and if not then I still wish the best for her and her family and I hope she gets better.. You're judging Mary Kate and Ashley because they have a blank stare?? Yeah they could be alcoholics but how do you know? Stick to facts and well wishes. -

October 25, 2009 - 2:12pm Full House Says:
All those kids from Full House are insane, DJ is a religious fanatic, this one is a meth head and the twins are either crazy or high on drugs, since they have that strange, vacant, blank-eyed stare going on. -
October 25, 2009 - 10:36am How Rude! Says:
She claimed she was sober before, but was still getting high. Why should we NOW believe she is sober. I don't believe her. -

Hard to believe that US overhauled their website for the greater good of legitimate posters. I have a load of trouble even logging on here, staying here without effing up my computer, (my posts are in comparison to most very polite and respectful) and spammers like cheesy Kaly seem to have no trouble whatsoever. I guess she's paying for the privilege, 'cause that is all this website is about now, the cheap, cheesy advertisements. -

She's bragging.... don't believe she's clean at all. Feel sorry for her kid. -
October 24, 2009 - 11:01pm Sad story... Says:
While I applaud her sobriety I hope the father gets custody and that her visits will be supervised until she is sober a bit longer. What a very sad story. I hope she is being honest now and that she never ever drinks or does drugs again. I hope that her baby girl can grow up depending on her mom to always be sober and be there for her. -

WOW she is more pathetic than Jon and Kate. -
October 24, 2009 - 7:01pm Stephanie Judith Tanner Says:
Notice how she said that when she drove drunk with her baby in the car, she mentioned that she put HERSELF in danger, then mentions her kid. And zero mention of the innocent drivers on the road she also put in danger. Typical spoiled hollywood brat. I never could stand her on Full House, it was so stupid was she used to dance on it. -
