The actress shared her story on “The Drew Barrymore Show” while discussing the film “Blink Twice,” directed by Zoë.

Barrymore revealed how her excessive drinking affected her memory and how watching the film provided a new perspective on her journey to sobriety.

“I used to drink excessively, losing my memory while drinking. So watching this film was an extraordinary journey for me to forgive myself for that. Because I put myself in situations I shouldn’t have been in, and I felt a lot of shame about it. And I haven’t been drinking for five years”

Drew described the process of quitting alcohol as one of the greatest achievements of her life, reflecting on the negative impact addiction had on her journey.

The actress’s honesty was widely praised by fans, who congratulated her on her courage and five years of sobriety.
