Jeff Conaway is on some VH1 Addict show.

All back to is that considered addiciton? If I didn’t need my job that’s all I’d do as well. If I win the lottery that’s probably all I’d do. But again, this is the word of someone with no credibility. She has had zero non porn movie or TV credits since 1993- do we know that these auditions even existed? And surely they weren’t auditions to be the next Bond girl, more like typist #2- easy to blow that off, pot or no pot. I say these are excuses for a career that ended early.

And she damn sure doesn’t get as high as Snoop Dogg has and since 1993, he’s done albums, movies, TV shows, tours, etc. In fact, aren’t there hundreds of successful rappers who brag about their pot exploits, and go to work every day and get rich? All can do it except this girl. Puh-lease.

And now it’s back to why are you so determined to label her not an addict? Your experience doesn’t prove that marijuana addiction doesn’t exist. Other people not getting addicted doesn’t prove that it doesn’t exist. She feels that she is addicted to pot, and needs help to quit.

I’ll allow there may be one person in a million who has something in their body composition that makes them addicted to a substance proven to be less addictive than caffeine. I’m also willing to allow there may in fact be one or two legitiamte aspirin addicts in the world.

But if I were laying my money on it, I’d say this is a washed up child actress looking for any way to get back in the public eye. Since she smokes pot and can show that she does she claims thats her addiciton. She doesn’t do the other drugs and thus couldn’t successfully claim an addiciton to an addicitve drug becasue she would have none of the symptoms and it wouldn’t show up in her body, so this was her only shot at getting back into the mainstream. Which simply ain’t gonna happen after porn anyway. If she is an addict and not using the TV show for fame, then why not get help anonymously?

So anythings possible. But this particular person to me has more reasons to be faking it then telling the truth. And fuck, could she have at least been logical about it- she says she smokes 12 blunts in a row? What would be the point? Could you get any higher than you would be after oh, about blunt number four? Isn’t that either just a waste of blunts five through twelve, or a lie? And how long exactly would it take to smoke twelve blunts- six hours? Wouldn’t you black out after blunt four or so as well? And an aside- wouldn’t that be like hundreds of dollars a day in weed for a jobless person?

I’d also like to add I find it odd the pot kept her from auditioning for legit jobs, but it didn’t stop her from auditioning for More Black Dirty Debutantes #32?

Yes, it’s definitely possible that she’s only doing this for the publicity, but I didn’t pick up anything in her demeanor that really twinged my BS-meter at all, so I’m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt on this for now. If you haven’t been through addiction, it can be hard to fully understand the psychological element of it; it’s a kind of insanity, and treatment, beyond the couple of days required for detox, is really almost entirely therapy. Even if she’s not really physically addicted to pot, treatment will help her if she is psychologically dependent.

I can see her, like Mary Carey as well, feeling like she doesn’t deserve better than doing porn at this point. Porn is what they know, and the prospect of going for legitimate work after that is probably pretty intimidating. There’s likely an element of self-sabotage, and she may be using the pot as an excuse.

I found this online due to the thread. It breaks my heart to see someone so broken down due to addiction. Jeff Conway is barely functional.

You are right, he has overcome an opiate addiction.

Speaking of, has anyone seen the good Doctor around recently? Or is he still on vacation over Christmas/New Year?

I’d just like to approximately quote Bob Saget in Half Baked:

Have you ever sucked dick for marijuana? I sucked dick for coke for six years! Addicted to marijuana? Get out of here.

The point being, there are crackwhores, but in all of my pot smoking, I’ve never met a potwhore (but it might not have been so bad if I did)

Watching this show, I can’t believe Jeff Conaway is still alive. His girlfriend on the show is a classic co-dependant and I doubt he’ll ever get better with her around.

Hi Jenny!

These VH1 Reality shows (this one, Brady, Baio) are pissing me off with their repetetive previews and endless repeats. I’ve probably seen the same 30 seconds of each show more than a dozen times, hoping to actually see something new. I seem to have the bad timing to keep tuning in at that exact same 30 seconds, every bloody time.

Then there’s the 20 Second preview of dramatic event at every commercial break and at least once every 5 minutes in between. When you finally get to the part in the show where that event occurs, the entire sequence is…25 seconds long! So you’ve already seen 80% of it a dozen times before you get the payoff, which usually amounts to nothing more than another five seconds of the same thing. No new drama, no release of tension, just more of the same.

Eh, someone covered it.
