AceShowbiz - Lindsay Lohan is determined to stay sober following her release from Cliffside Malibu Treatment Center. According to TMZ, she has asked her mother Dina to put liquor away when she's at home. The recovering actress also bans alcohol from her hotel room.
Lindsay reportedly instructed staffers at the Beverly Hills Hotel to remove alcohol from her room's minibar during her stay. She also asked producers of "Chelsea Lately" to put non-alcoholic drinks only in her dressing room as she made an appearance as a guest-host on the show. In addition, the 27-year-old actress reportedly would be accompanied by a sober coach at least for the next week so that she would not be tempted to touch liquor.
The "Liz & Dick" actress finished her court-ordered rehab stint earlier this week. However, she was almost immediately instructed to enroll in a mandatory therapy by a judge after receiving a letter from Cliffside's CEO and founder Richard Taite. Experts at the facility argued that Lindsay needed the sessions to overcome the addiction.
"Our entire clinical team is in unanimous agreement that if these sessions are not required by the court and attendance not verified once a month to ensure accountability, it is a set up for almost certain failure," the letter read. The therapy sessions will be carried out three times a week by face-to-face meetings if her schedule permits, or phone and Skype if she's out of town.
