Finally, becoming a mother gave her the determination and the courage to get sober. In this deeply personal, utterly raw, and ultimately inspiring memoir, Jodie comes clean about the double life she led - the crippling identity crisis, the hidden anguish of juggling a regular childhood with her Hollywood life, and the vicious cycle of abuse and recovery that led to a relapse even as she wrote this book. The harrowing battle she swore she had won was really just beginning. Even then, she kept a painful secret - one that could not be solved in thirty minutes with a hug, a stern talking-to, or a bowl of ice cream around the family table. Jodie Sweetin melted our hearts and made us laugh for eight years as cherub-faced, goody-two-shoes middle child Stephanie Tanner on "Full House." Her ups and downs seemed not so different from our own, but more than a decade after the popular television show ended, the star publicly revealed her shocking recovery from methamphetamine addiction.
