Britney's Meth Addiction


Britney Spears' problems may have less to do with any diagnosed bipolar disorders, and a lot more to do with drug abuse. Specifically meth. The National Enquirer reports:
Britney Spears had been on a 24-hour meth binge before she was rushed to the hospital. Ironically, she was desperately trying to stay awake - because she was terrified that if she fell asleep, her family would "drag her off to a mental institution," according to a close source.

The drama began at 2 a.m. Wednesday when Britney and Sam Lutfi checked into the Beverly Hills Hotel and she began doing meth. In addition to her mental problems, Britney is addicted to crystal meth, and details her addiction in a front page story this week. Meanwhile, her meth habit played a key role in her recent hospitalization and friends told her mother, Lynne, that she hadn't slept since last Saturday. Her drug-taking went on all day, interrupted only by brief dashes to her home. Secret arrangements for her hospitalization had been made - but no-one wanted it to happen at the hotel."
Britney's behavior and appearance is typical of any long time user of speed, so I'm not sure why this news would come as a surprise to anyone
