Full House star Jodie Sweetin (aka Stephanie Tanner) is a recovering meth addict and alcoholic. She appeared on the Today Show to sell her book, cleverly titled Unsweetened, and told Matt Lauer that she tried desperately to shake of the shackles of her squeaky clean Stephanie Tanner image. To do so, she turned to drugs and alcohol.

Sweetin told Lauer that she drank for the first time when she was 13 or 14 at a wedding. "It was the beginning of my drinking and using. I had always been looking, I guess, for that thing that made me fit in my own skin."

Sweetin then moved on to harder drugs and began using meth when she was in her 20s. She did a stint in rehab, then went touring college campuses lecturing on recovery, but she was still not sober. Lauer even alluded to the fact that she may have been high while giving her speeches, which he called an "amazing contradiction."

Sweetin has an 18-month-old daughter and has been sober for one year. In December of 2008, Sweetin's estranged husband accused her of of being an unfit mother and told the judge of an alleged incident where Sweetin drove drunk with the baby in the back seat. She lost custody and was allowed to have supervised visits with her daughter.

"I hope that she will never have to see some of the things that I did before," Sweetin said.
