Drew Barrymore opened up about the last decade, including the 'cripplingly difficult' period she went through after her divorce from ex-husband Will Kopelman and how she coped.
Over the past decade, actress turned TV-hosthas experienced an abundance of change and suffered through"cripplingly difficult" periods of her life.
In a new interview with People magazine, Barrymore opened up about how her long envisioned dream of a family slowly crumbled after her"After the life I planned for my kids didn't work out — I almost think that was harder than the stuff [I went through] as a kid. It felt a lot more real because it wasn't just me. It was about these kids that I cared so much about. And then I probably cared so much that I was only giving to them and not taking care of myself.
In an effort to give her children as much of a traditional family life as she had intended, Barrymore moved from California to New York to be closer to her ex-husband's family. She recalls thinking at the time,"'This is a family, so nobody's going anywhere.' I was determined to make it work because we all loved each other so much."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER
"It just took me down," she said of her first winter in New York."There are times where you can look at someone you think is a strong person and see them so broken and go, 'How the f--- did they get there?' And I was that person. I broke.""It was just trying to numb the pain and feel good—and alcohol totally did that for me…The drinking thing for me was a constant, like, 'You cannot change. You are weak and incapable of doing what's best for you.
