celeb rehab

Did anyone see the rehab show last night. I can't imagine a rehab place letting women jump in a pool where it was so bad they couldn't show it on TV. I thought sex was not allowed in rehab and I considered that letting that happen was a big no no on the part of the rehab facility.

I also see that Daniel Baldwin wants to leave. I use to like the guy now I think he is full of sh@@. I also think he is using.

Don't they do blood tests to see if people are using??

I liked the show at first but now I have doubts about it. I wanted to see what a real rehab place is like.

I did like the movie 28 days with Sandra Bullock and I think that's probably more like things really are.

If you all caught the first episode, Daniel said he had been clean for some time, but he wanted to learn to manage his sobriety. I do believe he is clean from drugs, but I think he still has the drug mentality. He wants a maintenance plan. I think he should log into MedHelp.
He also told Dr. Drew that the sexual atmosphere will cause him to slip, and that's why he wants to leave. I believe him 100%. When we stop drugs, we stop the things we associate with drugs. I loved it when Daniel said that he wished he could go to a party, do a few lines and go home and go tto bed. He said if he does a few lines he's up for ten days. We are not like other people. I totally get it.

The sex stuff is absolutely ridiculious (sp) The one girl is in there because she's ADDICTED to sex for sh*ts sake!!  Shes in the porn industry and Dr. Drew told her on like the first or second show that in order for her to get "clean" she needed to get OUT of that business and tone down her dress (or lack there of) in the rehab facility!  Dont know if Baldwin is using or not, but they showed him talking to his wife cause he didnt want to hang out at the pool with the sex stuff and all.  He told her what was going on there and she was pi$$ed off, thats when he decided to leave.  At least thats how he made it look.  Cause at the end of the show for the previews of the next show they were saying he was texting with the sex pot girl and wanted her to send naked pics.  What an a$$ hole!  He said on last nites show his wife if 4 months pregnant.

I wanted to see how a "real" rehab operated, but I think that ones looking more and more like a joke.  

Also, they play the shows a million times during the week.  In case anyone wants to watch it.  I set my DVR to record it and almost every day I have an episode on there.

Right now, on the show, everybody's trying to leave and Chyna says she's now discovered after being there that she's not an addict.  People should know that this is often typical of people coming off drugs, esp. when it wasn't their decision.  They're more likely to throw tantrums and fight about it.  Hell, right now, they're admitting privately that even though they have to turn in their cell phones, Mary kept a "secret" one and she shares it with Daniel.

Yeah Hopsing, it's freakin' ridiculous that they let him leave.  An in-patient rehab needs to be just that, in house!  I mean there's in house and non in house for a reason, to the degree of need.  These people need to be supervised and monitored and in-house.

I agree with you totally.  I think the Baldwins in general tend to have grandiose personalities.  Bridgette is sincere, she is grappling right now, with what her addiction has done to her family, her life, and to her.  I really feel for her.  I totally agree about the "docs" too. Hell, "Dr." Phil, isn't even a doctor.  Since when can you call yourself one in this country?

Avis I'm sure he would be!!!! lol
Jacqui,whats up with letting him leave in the first place,this guy is battling a bad crack addiction and you let him leave,c'mon. I saw another show about him and basically it said this was his last chance or he was out of the business. His own family ( his brothers) wont have anything to do with him.

I saw them texting but didn't see trying to get naked pics. I think he's doing it for publicity. If that is so, he got some bad advice. He wants to be the center of everything.

The only one I think is sincere is Bridgette Nielson. I saw her on the surreal life when she was real drunk.

The whole thing has become a joke to me after watching last night. I think Dr. Drew was hoping to become the next Dr. Phil, which I don't think will happen. I don't like Dr. Phil much either--just in it for the money.

I can't believe the highly-charged sexual environment they've got going on there.  He is in for a world of hurt.  I think he doth protest too much to Connaway as a way of overcompensating because he's really mentally not where he says he is.  He says all the time how comitted, but I think he's there 'cause someone told him to be.  Not because he wants to.  One of the first episodes he had to leave to go be on a show.  Either that one, or another show told him to go in order to work, or his wife sent him.

personally for the money it costs I would want the girls in the pool but your right what the heck kind of rehab is this place. Dr Drew had to ask them if they were all sober when they got out of the pool. What the hell is that,don't you know doc.

I missed it last night, but have watched the rest and saw the clips you're referring to.  I immediately thought that Baldwin may still be using, or at least using that as an excuse to get out and then use.  I'm not sure what's going on there given that we only get glimpses, but I think that everyone thinks it's got to be good 'cause it's on t.v. and celebrities are there and the Dr. Drew is running it.  From the other shows I thought the place was largely unstructured and was concerned it wasn't what it should have been.
