Actress Whoopi Goldberg released her new memoir, 'Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and Me' on May 7. It's about her early life, in New York City with her family, losing her mother and brother, the hurdles she faced as a young adult and a lot more. In her memoir, Goldberg opened up about her battle with cocaine addiction in the 80s. The 68-year-old actress also revealed that one day she realised that she needed to get rid of the addiction when a housekeeper found her lying on a closet floor.
Whoopi in her memoir, wrote that she didn바카라t know the effects of cocaine had on her until she reached a 바카라low바카라 where she was in a hotel room for two days. She said, "I had stayed pretty far away from drugs, except for pot, after getting cleaned up in the early 바카라70s'' and added, 바카라But Los Angeles and New York started to redefine what 바카라recreational drug use바카라 meant in the 바카라80s." She further said, "It was a really good time for about a year. Then I fell into the deep well of cocaine and sank to a new low. Nobody around me caught on to where I was at with it. At least, that바카라s what I wanted to believe. I would have called myself 바카라a very high-functioning addict.바카라바카라
The Oscar-winning actress got addicted to cocaine and she realised she was getting sloppy when she went to work. ''I was sitting on the closet floor, just putting it up my nose, all by myself,'' she said and added, ''I didn바카라t hear the housekeeper knock or let herself in the room to clean it up.바카라
The 'Sister Act' actress further revealed, 바카라I looked at myself in the mirror near the door and saw cocaine all over my face''. 바카라Get up, get out, and fix your life,바카라 she told herself. 바카라'You바카라ve been sitting in a closet for two days. It바카라s not good','' she recalled telling herself. ''I had already decided that I was willing and ready to stop, so I was going to do whatever I needed to stop putting drugs up my nose,'' said Whoopi.
