Lindsay Lohan Confesses To Oprah: Wanted To Go To Jail During Her Addiction, Cocaine Helped Her Drink More

Lindsay Lohan confessed that, during the worst of her addiction, she wanted to go to jail.

In a remarkable new interview with Oprah Winfrey, Lohan told Oprah that she subconsciously wanted to go to jail.

"I think it was just to find some peace and just have no choice but to just sit and be," Lohan, 27, told Winfrey.

However, in rehab, she dealt with her addiction to drugs...and her addiction to chaos.

Lohan says that 84 days behind bars in 2007 wasn't effective in changing her "addiction to chaos".

LiLo said this rehab stint was different, though. And she's getting her life together.

Alcohol, she says, was her main drug-not cocaine. "That, in the past, was a gateway to other things for me," Lohan said.

The actress said,"It allowed me to drink more. I think that's why I did it," she said.

Now, "The Canyons" star said, she's only on vitamins-nothing else.

Lohan says she surrendered to her team at rehab-and this stay was different than any other.

"I wasn't fighting at all," she told Winfrey. "I just let go and was able to just be like 'OK you probably do know what's best,' because my idea of doing what's best for me has not worked in the past.'"

"I came into it just really willing, really craving more spirituality. Really open and ready to get really honest."

She says she's rekindling her relationship with her parents, Michael and Dina Lohan, and learning. She feels they've caught a lot of flack and aren't to blame for her addiction.

"They're just parents at the end of the day," she said. "I don't blame anyone for my mistakes."

Lindsay says she's growing up and is different. She says she feels "whole again".

"It's a process of growing up and recognizing and being just so tired and exhausted by the chaos...I have had no right in my past to complain about being followed by cameras and people making up stories, but there's something to be said about me moving forward that if I'm going to put myself in a public situation - that's open season for people to say what they're gonna say. I can't control that but I can control not putting myself there."
