Actress Tara Reid has been known for one thing – partying.  After spending 60 days in rehab, Tara is out and talking about what went wrong in her life.

It seems like this is probably more common for stars who get thrust into the spotlight and don’t know how to cope with the intrusion.  Being shy is what Tara said was the start of her downfall.

“I felt like everyone was  judging me and watching me.  I think I drank because it gave me a kind of confidence.  When I went out, everyone always wanted to have a drink with me – because I was known as this fun, party girl.  I became that person.”

Drinking for Tara was also a way to help her sleep.  Reed said her troubles with insomnia and struggling to get some rest, pushed her to become a night drinker who wouldn’t stop until she passed out.

Hopefully the actress has been given the tools to help her through this crucial transition time.  She will need to surround herself with friends who are willing to support her sobriety.  We wish her well.
