Selma Blair has cut alcohol out of her life. The ‘Legally Blonde’ actress reflected on her past relationship with the substance and how she used to drink to cope with her multiple sclerosis pain before ultimately breaking the habit. “It’s wild the times that I’ve gone, even as a very young girl, to alcohol,” Blair said on the Oct. 20 episode of ‘The Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg Show,’ which host Jenny McCarthy explained was recorded before Blair’s recent flight incident. “I was, even at a young age, using it for the headaches, using it to calm down.” Then the 54-year-old realized that drinking felt like the only solution to the nerve pain from her MS, an autoimmune disease that attacks nerve fibers, according to the Mayo Clinic. As she put it, “It was the one thing that could take you from this to chill.” However, Blair soon recognized the depths to which she was going to numb the pain. “Then, you know, one glass isn’t enough; two glasses isn’t great,” she shared. “Three’s better, four is horrible, and five, you know, I [was] just depressive.” So, Blair accepted, “It just wasn’t going to lead me to the right place.” And while the ‘Cruel Intentions’ star emphasized she doesn’t live a “sober, sober lifestyle with AA,” she noted, “Drinking I cannot do. Alcohol is not good medicine for me.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1437345/selma-blair-explains-why-shes-stopped-drinking-alcohol-amid-ms-pain
