Lindsay Lohan is in trouble again. According to a recent article, she was picked up at 1:30 a.m. after a car chase with police and was arrested for suspicion of drunken driving, cocaine possession, bringing a controlled substance into custody and driving on a suspended license. This is just weeks after her stay at a treatment center in Malibu, California. She’s obviously not doing much for their reputation as a successful drug rehab center.

Out of jail on bond, Lindsay is currently under medical care, her lawyer said. He didn’t specific where, or whether she was in another drug rehab center.

I’m sure many people are wondering what it’s going to take to get Lindsay drug free. She has been in two drug treatment programs this year alone, she currently has several legal charges against her which could land her in prison and, as a result of her addiction and legal problems, her career is suffering. She had to cancel a Jay Leno spot, and the movie she was slated to make with Shirley MacLaine has been delayed since May. The producers said they are going to announce a start date very soon, so it looks like their going to do it without Lindsay.

Despite her celebrity status, Lindsay is not much different from millions of others addicted to drugs and alcohol.  I’ve known people who have done as many as nine treatment programs before they finally found one that worked. There’s a lot to be said for finding a successful drug rehab program the first time. Let’s hope Linsday’s close.
