Paula Abdul Talks About Killing Herself After Prescription Painkiller Drug Addiction
Paula Abdul says “I could have killed myself.” when she talks about her years long struggle with prescription painkiller drug addiction.
AMERICAN IDOL judge PAULA ABDUL has broken her silence about her 12-year long battle with painkiller addiction.
The singer-turned-TV personality was left in debilitating pain after a 1992 car accident and 1993 plane crash that required 15 spinal surgeries and left her dependent on pain medication.
Abdul has been dogged by reports she had become an addict and continues to defend herself against allegations she filmed the TV talent show high on drugs.
But since a stint last November (08) at Carlsbad, California’s La Costa Resort and Spa, Abdul admits she’s come to terms with her dependency and is determined to stay sober.
Describing her withdrawal symptoms, Abdul tells Ladies’ Homes Journal: “I was freezing cold, then sweating hot, then chattering and in so much pain. It was excruciating. But at my very core, I did not like existing the way I had been.”
And Abdul insists she won’t be turning back to drugs after realising how close she came to death.
She adds: “I could have killed myself.”

Chronic pain is very severe and this affects people's life, long known to people who suffered from a strange disease, were strong back pains, which were intense and not let them work, as was what they said were the doctor and he prescribed oxycodone for pain, but knew it was a very powerful medicine, and moreover, anxiolytics, and worry that they were doing things that previously did not like eating too much, smoking, etc, and read in findrxonline that this drug is well and that we must be very careful with their use, and everything must be under medical prescription.
