Video After The Jump
During a discussion on The View about Charlie Sheen's recent drug binges, the conversation turned to Whoopi Goldberg's own battles with substance abuse.
"I was a functioning drug addict. I went to work because I knew if I didn't show up a lot of people would be out of work and I would be out of a check." Goldberg said
When asked by Barbara Walters how she overcame her addiction, Whoopi described a four day ordeal that finally opened her eyes.
"I ended up sitting on a bed for three or four days scared there was something under the bed," Whoopie explained. "I wet the bed, I pooped the bed, I did all kinds of stuff in my room. My roommate came back and said, 'what is going on?' I said there is something under the bed. I was so scared and that's when I knew."
Good to see Whoopie got the help she needed.
