Both Rose To Fame In A Number Of Movies

During their time in the spotlight, it would seem that the two would unfortunately become victims of the now highly publicized issue of child molestation. But at the time that they were young, and practically defenseless against the people doing the harm, they were also silent. They were afraid to tell on those who were also in charge of their careers and could ruin them in a second.

How The Drug Addiction Began

According to Haim, it was during his young days that the drugs began. He shares, “I was working on ‘The Lost Boys’ when I smoked my first joint. But a year before that, I was starting to drink beer on the set of ‘Lucas.’ I lived in Los Angeles in the ‘80’s, which was not the best place to be. I did cocaine for about a year and a half then it led to crack. I started on the downers, which were a hell of a lot better than the uppers because I was a nervous wreck. But one led to two, two led to four, four led to eight until at the end it was about 85 a day – the doctors could not believe I was taking that much. And that was just the Valium – I’m not talking about the other pills I went through.”
