Lindsay Lohan "Healthy & Happier" Without Cocaine

Starlet insists she has cleaned up her act in a new interview with a British paper. Are you buying it?

Her troubled past has been well-documented, but according to Lindsay Lohan, things are a whole lot better nowadays.

"I tried to mask my problems with alcohol, cocaine and mind-altering substances," the 23-year-old tells The Sun, tying her breakdown to her father's habit of talking to the press.

(For the record, Michael Lohan tells E! News that Linds' problems are due to his divorce and her prescription drug use.) 

LiLo continued: "Now I'm in a place where I don't need to use anything and I can feel emotions because I choose to."

In addition to revealing she's been in rehab three times, Lindsay also admits to seeing a therapist once every 14 days.

And the self-admitted "healthy and happier" starlet hopes her tale is a precautionary one.

"If I can teach others, especially teens, by sharing my experiences, then that's what I will continue to do," Lindsay says.
