Jamie explained that she was addicted to opiates and said that she would have died at the time “if fentanyl was available, as easily available, as it is today on the street.”

“My worst day was almost invisible to anyone else,” she added. “I’m lucky. I didn’t make terrible decisions high or under the influence that then for the rest of my life I regret.

The actress continued, saying, “There are women in prison whose lives have been shattered by drugs and alcohol — not because they were violent felons, not because they were horrible people, but because they were addicts. And I am incredibly lucky that that wasn’t my path.”

“I was headed there,” she said.

Jamie previously spoke about her addiction in 2019.
