Jaid told the New York Post that Drew slit her wrists for the attention. The attempt on her life ended up helping Drew make an effort towards fixing everything that was broken.
Drew acknowledged in her interview with Norm Macdonald in September of 2018 that being a child star was simply “a recipe for disaster.” She had been forced to grow up far too fast.
Despite her struggle with substances, Drew was incredibly able to turn her life around at a young age too.
“But you know what’s exciting? I got my s*** over with at, like, 14. Like, midlife crisis, institutionalized, blacklisted, no family, like, got it done, and then got into the cycle of being my own parent, figuring it out,” she continued.
Drew decided that the first step in getting her life together was emancipating herself, so she did just that.
The next thing Drew did was find her very own apartment in West Hollywood, which she detailed in her book Wildflower.
