The last of it was that I overdosed and my husband came down the stairs and found me at four o'clock in the

And that wasn't the end.

Actually, that wasn't the end for me.

That wasn't my rock bottom.

After that, I thought, well, okay, that drug's not working.

I'm going to take this drug instead.

Because again, I suffer with a disease of my mind and I wasn't in my right frame of mind.

Brought me to my knees.

It drove me down to six and a half stone.

By the end of it, I was picking stuff up off floors, thinking it was cocaine.

I lived in my sitting room, full of psychosis and full of paranoia.

The only time I ever left the house was to get drugs and that was it.

I do.

I've got four kids, the eldest being 24 and the youngest 13.

For many years, David, I stepped over my kids.

for drugs.

I, my family, my husband, you know, I didn't really care.
