Drew Barrymore started taking drugs at a very early age
Drew Barrymore recently appeared in Demi Lovato’s documentary, 'Child Star', where they discussed their not-so-pleasant experiences as child stars and how they were introduced to drugs and alcohol at a very young age.
The ‘50 First Dates’ star said, "Having a 10-year-old daughter now, I just, it's unfathomable. But that's just how I grew up."
She revealed, "I used to get high with my mom's friend at like 10. And I thought she was so cool, and she would give weed to me and her son."
Barrymore, however, added, "Those were all my actions, those were my reactions. That was my coping mechanism. I'm very accountable, I don't blame other people."
