        Wait a moment here. I am merely laughing at the fact that she and her victim complex are going to get what they deserve. She is an addict, plain and simple. She has been completely enabled and coddled by both the show and her family, and apparently Dr. Phil is gonna give her some cold hard truth. Now, that being said, I am an addict myself, over 5 years clean. The REAL kind of clean, not the Kim Richards kind of clean. I know addict behaviors, and I know the excuses we all have that point the fingers of accusation back at the people who are trying to help us. I am GALD GLAD GLAD that she might be getting the tough love that she apparently so obvoiously needs. No one else has helped her to help herself like this, thus far.

        And for the record, the laughter was at what I am imagining TT’s purple Pen commentary to be, NOT at Kim’s situation…. even tho she did bring it on herself.

          ​Babe, I am salivating at this interview. Dr. Phil is no Andy Cohen. He is not going to just nod and move to the next question when she lies.

          IS THIS AN INTERVENTION?

          Yeah, it is.

            In the preview clip she’s acting ditzy / cutesy like she’s done repeatedly on RHOBH. It makes me wonder if she’s ever even watched Dr. Phil. He does not do cutesy (but he does plenty of interventions). ☺

        Commenting on this blog regarding any of the Wives’ shows is no place for holier than thou browbeating of others. We all watch these shows. The morality of being part of this audience is dubious.

        I feel that the people who have had some actual shit happen to them, trouble with drugs or alcohol, serious difficulties in coping with life’s rigors a la depression, bulimia, etc., are also probably the ones who are gonna be the harshest critics of Kim’s behavior.

        Most of us have had to deal with those issues AND have jobs, go to school, support loved ones, carry on difficult romantic relationships and so on. We didn’t earn our paychecks by getting facials and go to the Bahamas to frolic on the beach and bicker with our friends.

        Speaking only for myself, I had terrible depression and I was bulimic. My family is very religious and conservative, so I just had to find a way out of my dark hole myself. Antidepressants didn’t help, but that’s another issue. Stiff upper lip and such. Part of the reason I was so depressed and hated my body so much is because I had a couple of people similar to Kim in my life. And no, my Kim’s were not drug addicts.

        It’s not an intervetion, Kim. It’s a friendly gathering with those that love you and Dr. Phil to reinforce the sympathy everyone feels for you because of the way Kyle, the 81 year old friend, your niece, Bravo TV, Eileen, and that evil Lisa Rhinna not to mention Lisa VP fucked you over.
        I’m sorry she has a horrible disease. With many diseases we have the choice to take the treatment and get better or at least manage it.
        People go on reality tv to make money, get famous, or stay on the B list. I have lost all sympathy for her, especially after her dealings with Kingsley and the dog bites.

        I don’t see how being amused that all of this is finally coming down on Kim more quickly than we thought and things just keep happening is wishing for her demise at all. If we wished for her demise we wouldn’t care whether she was sober or not. I feel for her children greatly but my sympathy for Kim is nonexistent. She has made a mockery of herself at this point. Being amused doesn’t necessarily mean we think this is hilarious either. It also means we are merely entertained..little vocab lesson for the day…which is the point of TV. Kim Richards puts herself on front street!! No one forced her to do Dr. Phil and she seemed eager to clear her name in the beginning of the interview.

        Kim has to take responsibility for her actions. Just like everyone else.

        I personally don’t believe addiction is a disease. It’s a choice. No one forced her to drink or take pills. She can turn her life around. But she has to stop blaming others, and be willing to do the work.

        I’m not a fan of any of these women. But, I don’t want to see anyone hurt.
        And that includes everyone here, whether you agree with me, or not.

      I did have to laugh about the screaming women who find out their baby daddy is someone else, and then run hysterically backstage. And I’ve lost patience with, and tolerance for, Kim and her never-ending bullshit. Showing up on Dr. Phil a few days after drunkenly kicking a cop is just absurd. She’s back to the delusional lies and it’s only tragic for her children who are collateral damage.

        Yes, holyterror44. I remember Baby Jane. Amazing movie. I’m reluctant to compare Kim to Baby Jane because of the twist at the end of the movie that shows Baby Jane to be a victim of her sister, the crippled one. Baby Jane is actually being guilted into taking care of her sister because she thinks that she’s responsible for her being a paraplegic, due to a drunk driving accident (Baby Jane was drunk driving). It turns out that she’s not responsible, and the crippled sister has taken advantage of the fact that Baby Jane’s drunken memory prevented her from remembering anything from the night it happened. If anything that movie should show us that no situation is as cut and dry as we think it is. Bette Davis was an incredible actress.

      Seriously how can you be amused by watching someone’s life fall apart? Whether it’s her fault or not, it’s tragic. This isn’t a scripted soap opera. It’s someone’s real life and there’s nothing funny about it. If you hate her, hate her, don’t get amusement from her downfall.

        It’s amusing because she has put it on mainstream for everyone to see, protested fervently when anyone expressed concern, lashed out and verbally attacked anyone around her who tried to show her love (being concerned with someone’s sobriety enough to talk to them after a personal altercation is loving them) and is still deflecting and projecting. She did Dr Phil because I’m sure her family made it sound like it would help her public image but it was all u see the guise of an intervention which is obviously why they are there. I think Brooke, Kathy, and everyone who loves her can’t get to the point Kyle finally came to yet and can’t get through to her so this was another way. It’s not amusing that she has relapsed but it is amusing when she is STILL crying sober when her entire family is sitting there making it clear they want her to go to rehab. Accept the help already, Kim! No one ever pissed off their family members by going to rehab.

        I think what people are responding to is the theory that “karma is a bitch”.. she was beyond horrible during this season.. and Eileen and Lisa being newbies didn’t shy away from tip toeing around Kim.. I think everyone enables her by letting her get away with a lot of crap. It is hard to feel sorry for a person who puts a rumor about a woman’s husband and finds feels justified in hurting a family.. yet i’m going to stand by her antics? I know this is addiction talking but she was one vile human being.. outdid Brandi I think and that’s pretty hard. Yet do I wish her ill will? no.. but my reasons for her healing sadly is more for the sake of her poor kids than her “choices”…

        When I first heard about Kim’s arrest I felt a little bit of satisfaction that she was outed for losing her sobriety and lying on the show. That feeling lasted about ten minutes until I realized that people are suffering as a result of her sickness. It’s not amusing and it’s not entertaining…it’s horrific. Yes, I am guilty of being a voyeur and I will watch the interview. I guess it’s human nature to stop and stare at a car wreck but it doesn’t make me feel any better about myself for wanting to do it. I am trying to rely on my feelings of compassion rather than on my feelings of “I told you so” and it’s not easy after watching her this past season. Slowly, I am beginning to understand and I am hoping that doing so will make me a better person. So far, the snarky me has led the way and it doesn’t feel very good. Will she get help? Only if she wants too.I hope that she does.

      Once again, can someone explain to me why KATHY is not getting the blame for taking Kim to Dr Phil? Because Kathy has shown up and been supportive does not mean she is enabling Kim and it does not mean she supports the Dr Phil decision. Kathy did not want Kim to appear on Dr Phil or RHoBH. Kathy wants Kim to seek private help. Dr Phil was recommended by someone else.

      Yet somehow all of the commenters have now chosen to target Kathy as they once targeted Kyle.

      What the fuck?

      I’m trying to understand what Kathy has done wrong to make her a target. Again, not what her CHILDREN have done wrong, what SHE has done wrong.

      Please explain if you have an answer that doesn’t involve Kathy’s children.

        Angel, because sometimes in life you have to just “be there” for family members/friends even if you don’t support their decisions.

        It is a painful thing to do, watching a relative spiral out of control. But the healthiest thing to do is to let them know that you are there for them and pulling for them without enabling. It is a fine thin line.

        As to something someone read, because something is written in a bound manuscript doesn’t make it true.

        Sadly, you can’t separate Kathy from her kid’s bad publicity. The public has to wonder and do because their antics were/are so outrageous.

        Also, I think Kathy is a bit of a cypher, only shows up and is on film either making cutting remarks about a dress choice or talking about someone’s magic-trick-show. Very little is shown of her. Except Kim saying Kathy is a more supportive sister. Which leaves people thinking, hmmm, what is Kathy doing that is “supportive”.

        Maybe your question needs to be directed at Kim. Why is Kathy now the fall guy …. because someone OTHER THAN KIM has to be. Right?

      I’m looking forward to the Dr Phil interview too. Sequoia, Maybe you need to chill out. Sounds like Phil is going to give Kimmycakes the straight talk she’s been needing all of her adult life. Love him or hate him, Dr Phil is straight shooter. She may not like what he says but she won’t leave there wondering what he means. In my opinion, she needs to take his advice. And his free offer for treatment. Even if it means she misses Brooks second wedding and doesn’t get to see the same doctor that has been unable to successfully treat her in the past.

        holyterror44,
        I agree… From watching this trailer, it looks like Kim thought she was going to play it off as… “I had a bad week, RHBH reunion upset me, Monty is not doing well, etc…) and I downed a glass of vodka in a moment of weakness, and THEN REALIZED (after I was arrested and made an ass out of myself) What have I done??”

        She was SHOCKED at the prospect of an intervention. She thought wrong. As TT stated above, Dr Phil does not play.

        I wish her well. She seems so fragile.

    I am feeling hopeful that Dr. Phil is getting help for Kim’s children. She may have walked out and refused help (as Miss Tattles reported so accurately!), but they may benefit from the experience. If Kim doesn’t want help, so be it, but her kids need to be freed from this cycle. I’m thrilled he questioned her parenting. How many times have we heard Kim say all she cares about is her kids?

        Phil is not a magician and he can’t perform miracles. I watched him during the Natakee Holloway investigation and he did so much harm to those trying to find answers that I lost all respect for him. As a small part of that investigation I will never forgive his interference in the process. He is a ratings whore and that’s how I view him..not as a doctor with the objective of “first do no harm”.

          I think you are confusing a doctor of philosophy in a discipline such as psychology with the medical dr’s oath of due no harm. Dr. Phil has a PhD, which makes him a doctor in his discipline, not a medical dr. He does not uphold to that oath.

        I realize that Dr. Phil is not a psychiatrist and, yes, I am well aware that a psychiatrist is a medical doctor, and a PhD is not. I don’t know why you would presume something else that based on my comment. I said I hope he “does something” for the kids. I gave no indication that I hope he provides direct treatment. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. My hope is that he directs them to someone qualified to assist them, just as he allegedly was offering to Kim. As for Kim, I suspect she DOES need a psychiatrist.

      That would be great for Dr. Phil to get help for her kids. I hadn’t thought of that, but I bet he does. They need to understand her addiction mentality, and how to handle her whether she gets well or not. And therapy for dealing with the damage shes done to them all these years. Sometimes its the people the addict has hurt that are forgotten in the equation. They need to be able to protect themselves going forward and enjoy their adult lives .

        That may’ve been exactly what got Kim to rehab – Dr. Phil giving the kids permission to fully hand the problem back to Kim. Stand firm with their bottom lines. “As long as you’re using, you will not be a part of our lives, period. We will no longer cover for you / coddle you / or allow you around us (including “our brother Kingsley”) or our future children”.

      In a more shallow vein (apologies in advance) pills & booze are hell on skin. Maybe another channel into her addled brain is through her vanity? Her habits are not doing her complexion any favors. (Arf, ouch?)

    I will watch it but it is so sad. Seeing her daughter there to witness this whole mess is even more heartwrenching. Unfortunately I believe Kim is mentally still the age she was when she started using. She stopped growing emotionally and it shows. I have a brother who is a recovering addict, with many times over in rehab, and I also have a fiance who is 4 years sober. They both make the choice every day to NOT use their drugs of choice. And some days are better than others. I will continue to pray for her and her family.

        I think its true to a certain extent about getting stuck in an immature mind set when you abuse drugs starting as a teenager, and then you throw some narcissistic personality in there, and you have a person who cant mature. I had an experience with a guy like that. I was dumb enough to date him even though he had never ever had a relationship. Nothing was ever his fault. When all else failed he said but im just a child really. He was in his forties. He had done every drug around since teens and was a meth head for 12 years. He came across as sweet and caring but he actually was not a nice person at all and was rather cruel underneath the surface. Sounds like Kim somewhat. Now seeing more of Kim I see why she hasnt made a go of any of her marriages and relationships.

Her children & family are like prisoners of war & I believe Dr. Phil will help them hand the addiction 100% over to Kim & help them move forward with their lives. No more sweeping this under the carpet / no more lies. If an addict can’t find their rock bottom, a good intervention will find it for them & free all the hostages.

    I’m confused. She pored a drink of this much vodka. Wait, do you get to pour your own drinks at the Polo Lounge? Kim go to rehab. Someone needs to say to her “You are not going to a certain event because I can not trust your actions at the present time.” It’s not going to be pretty when the reality of her situation hits her. Maybe no job. Maybe no sisters. Maybe no dog. Maybe a judgement against her for a million. Maybe . . .she is so close to loosing so much and doesn’t want to face it.

Maybe that’s why she did nothing about the court papers in the dog lawsuit.

    I feel for her kids and other family members. Kim will never find an ideal time to go to rehab, and will use any excuse to put it off. Sad that her daughter may rather her mother be in treatment than at her wedding, and even sadder that Kim can’t see that herself.
    No one in her family wants to be the “bad guy” telling the addict the truth because it’s hard and it’s painful. Dr Phil is an expert at it. I’m not his biggest fan but I do hope he was able to give Kim’s kids some good advice and coping skills they can draw on if she refuses the help he’s offering.

        I’m not sure that ANYTHING or ANYONE is stronger than the addiction itself. It takes over the brain and all of the functions so she can’t think like a normal person anymore. I doubt that she is deliberately harming her children but the disease is in control so she does what it tells her to do. At this moment, Kim is powerless. That’s why she needs help so desperately She can’t do this without help from qualified addiction specialists in a reputable rehab facility. She has tried and failed on more than one occasion so the prognosis looks grim.

I love that Dr. Phil put her in her place in front of the kids because I’m sure they haven’t been allowed to confront her and hopefully he will help them. Kim is not a victim- maybe in her own mind- but its her decision to go to Re-hab or not (my money’s on the latter) . The kids need to get away from Kim, until she gets sober, REAL-life sober.

        Dr. Phil is a big advocate for kids and young people who have had to live through parents fighting all the time ,or abusing substances. He allways says you change who they are (kids) ,by subjecting them to this abusive unstable, unsafe chaos. Thats a powerful message ,and one people forget or dont own.

      Agreed! Getting her to go doesnt cut it! If she doesnt hit some sort of bottom than she’ll never complete a full program. Then she’s probably so deep into it, Kim nothing will shake her other then death. Im not saying that to be cold, Im saying that to be real.

        Coco- you’re so right. She has the finances to buy her drugs and friends so there’s nothing the kids can do other than withhold themselves to make her hit bottom. The kids need to stay away unless she completes the program and goes to sober living. She is so deep that a 30 day program will not do any good. – We will see if she loves her kids more than she loves her drugs……

          Hell no 30 days is not enough. 30 days, 30 yrs = JOKE. She needs the long term rehab, maybe 90 days would be a great start. Yet Kim has to want it for herself. Then she might not anyhow.

    Kim getting in fights and insulting a business associate of Brooke’s husband. My stomach turns at the thought of Kim attending.

I know one has nothing to do with the other but after all this is Kim we’re discussing here.

        I think it was Brandi, who wasnt at the wedding, who said Kyle did “something heinous”. She was trying to pull “What did Harry do” on Kyle.

        Wedding one was hastily pulled together for close family and friends just for Monty to be able to walk Brooke down the aisle. The second is the destination wedding she was planning all along with all her friends and family.

        @ Lizbeth. Brooke originally planned a big destination wedding to be held in May. When they found out about the seriousness of Monty’s condition, they decided to have a small family wedding so Monty could walk her down the aisle and see her get married (or Kim needed a story line) because no one knew what his condition would be in May. IMO Kim is more concerned with starring as the mother of the bride at the big destination wedding than facing her issues. She knows she needs rehab on some level.

        @Kate62 I’ve been thinking about the Palm Springs house that you mentioned. I think you’re right. Something about that situation really steams Kim’s broccoli. Kyle apparently has the receipts to prove that everything was done fair and square, but Kim’s still bitching about it.

        By the way, I’ve been to Palm Springs. I really don’t get why anyone would ever want to have a vacation home there. It’s icky, and really hard to find good food. I’d rather have a place in the mountains or in wine country. Especially if you live by the beach in perpetually warm weather already. I guess Palm Springs is like California’s version of Boca Raton. Anyhoo…

        Maybe Kim thinks that Kyle highjacked the attention away from her at the wedding. Kim’s all about being the center of attention. I just can’t figure it out.

    Okay, I’m just gonna say after seeing that brief blink of an eye look on Kimberlys face when her mother said “is this an intervention?” Makes me absolutely detest this woman! The bewildered look on that child’s face was heart breaking, we have seen that
    very same look on Kyles face when confronted with her sisters’ volcanic eruptions. She has caused so much pain for her children. Kim I will make you a promise that IF you survive long enough to even see your first grandchild, you can count on never being a huge part of that child’s life. Brooke will have a husband that will put distance between your addictons and their child. How do I know this? Because my husband had to make the choice for our daughter regarding my own parents because my brain was so messed up on what was normal. What you are going realize is that while your children love you, one day soon they will have children that they will love more than you. You will end up being exactly where you have chosen to be, alone with your addictions. May God have mercy on you then, even though you won’t deserve it.

      I think they are allowed to do things like talk shows (to promote the show) without having to ask. I am sure they are pissed that Kim went out of NBCu for this story but I imagine it was an instance of “better to ask for forgiveness than permission.”

      As for their inbtween contracts, there are stipulations in the contract that run for a year after their last episode airs regarding mostly reality TV, but also other acting shows. ​

Her entire family needs to step away from her including her children. I’m really that if kim is left to herself she will end up dead. Maybe she needs a near death experience…what is her rock bottom?

      I have seen some intervention shows, where the person was really brow beaten into going, and didnt want to go at all. And surprisingly ,they ended up doing really well, once they were clear headed, and loved being sober so much. People are so unpredictable and so different , its probably a case of noy one size fits all. Exceot for co dependency and e nabeling. I think those approaches really never work. Truth be told ,theres probably not a high success rate. But theres allways hope.

I think the meetings are important too to get support on many levls. I kbe a woman who was alcoholic and doing well and counted on her new husband to keep her sober. When after several years he started cheating on her all hell broje loose. Within a year or so she was dead from liver failure. She couldnt take that betrayl and loss and it killed her literally.

I don’t know anything about Dr. Phil, but it sounds like from what TT said that this is his MO, so I am wondering if this was a calculated ploy on part of Kathy and the kids as they thought this was the only way of getting through to her.

      Kim knows a lot of “family secrets” for sure. Kyle, Kathy, Maurecio, et al are pretty much blackmail victims of this “loose cannon”. They must be worried that she will spew secrets as well as LIES to get her way. This seems true of Kyle anyway. Maurecio probably advises Kyle how to deal with her sister. Kim is controlling the whole family with her addiction. I would assume at this point the daughters have had enough and may have more to do with the intervention (hopefully that is what this is) than is realized.

    Major denial, manipulation & deflection going on. Very familiar to me. My family – when they were still alive – reeked of it. I had read about “personal exception” awhile ago, and it makes perfect sense in Kim’s case.

    The theory is that personal exception is a mindset of most addicts when they are in the thick of it. Their “logic” goes something like this. (using *blah as a filler for drinking, drugging, lying, bad behavior etc)

    If *blah is not acceptable to the “ordinary people” in my life that’s THEIR problem not mine.

    I am NOT ordinary – I am special.

    Therefore, my *blah is exempt because MY circumstances are different/special.

    Check out Kim’s expression around the 15 second mark. It has stifled smirk written all over it.

When Eileen tried very nicely to bring Kim a nd Kyle together at the lunch she invited them to, Kim wouldnt even look at Eileen, while she was talking about her sisters deaths ,and how you cant get that time back. That was so odd to me. It wasnt even a talk about addiction and Kim was like a stone wall. But with Brandi Kim lights up like a Christmas tree. I think Kim finds Brandi to be fun. Peopke who drink and use drugs tend to be all about the fun. Thats what they seek more than anything. They dont really care about whether the person is a good person or not. Thats been my experience anyway.

      Interventions can be very powerful. Caring families will do this on tv for many reasons. Two positive reasons are because often times the production company will alleviate the costs for treatment. Treatment is very expensive. Second, the family hopes to bring awareness to other family members that they cannot do it alone, that often times they are enabling the addict, and they receive support through social media after to help them stay strong. Persons living with addictions can also see that their addiction may be causing the same problems and they get to see how it affects the rest of the family. Yes there are fame whores and yes it appears as if people are exposing everyone’s secrets for ratings or money but that is a large part of the addiction culture. Keep your secrets secret. Just let the addict do what they want, eventually they will choose family over substance, or worse let them hit rock bottom. People living with addictions do not have to hit rock bottom in order to change. There are many reasons for quitting and many relapses that take place. It is a healing journey. I appreciate the families having the courage to ask for help and I appreciate Dr. Phil answering their call. AND MOSTLY I appreciate TT for creating discussion forums about these shows so that people can experience varying perspectives for what ever reason you read and respond and watch.

        If nothing else comes out of this hopefully the family will realize that what will make Kim want to change is to have all of the family members state to Kim that they are aware that they HAVE been enabling her and will no longer; that they will break contact with her until she takes steps to change her behavior/addiction. Sometimes this is enough to make the addict take positive steps to change; sometimes. Looks like the daughters are ready to take this step. Like all of the other posters have intimated; the daughters will then find out if they are more important to her than the alcohol/substances.

          I agree about the tv part for most people, but clearly it had zero effect on Kim. If you or I had seen ourselves strung out and belligerent like she was on poker night, it would have probably been a come to Jesus moment. I just don’t understand that she wasn’t humiliated by her behavior, and even went on to be both aggressive and defensive during the reunion. The real karma moment came when she accused Lisa of … what is that called, hmm …battery! That certainly came around and bit her in the ass.

        I would like to say something on a serious note. Kim will never choose alcohol or drugs over her children. She will always love her children. Addiction just over powers a person. However, Kim may not love herself enough to get clean and sober. It sounds cold but sometimes it just becomes too late for the addict and they die. It happens. It does not mean that they did not love their children or their family. Trust me I know from personal experience.

          Your point about her loving her children is true. It is easy for me to think that the person living with addictions loves their drug over their family but in reality they have little control over saying no. I say little control because many addicts identify that in order to change they need to start making choices (hard choices). I suspect the guilt and shame of addiction prevents the addict from seeing the love that is offered, but does love their family very much.

        “Keep your secrets secret”

        I commend the family for confronting Kim and not keeping her secrets. Should something happen to Kim – like an overdose or suicide – they might be able to take a tiny step forward knowing they tried to get her help. Secrets often continue, even after the addict dies. Help is help, no matter what avenue they took to get it.

        Dr. Drew allways says hitting rock bottom ,is too often likely to be death. So he doesnt advcate waiting for rock bottom. My niece staged an tervention fir her mom and made all the arrangements for the rehab to be in pkace for her to go ahead of time. Her mm went and was much better for a year but she died in her sleep later on. Guess the damage done was too great or she relapsed. Im not sure. She was bipolar as well.

      It’s like the old joke: How many psychologists does it take to change a lightbulb? One. But the lightbulb has to WANT to change.

    I wonder if Brandi is upset that Kim’s situation is getting all of the press rather than the launch of Brandi’s wine line.

      I thought the same thing. It’s probably not helpful when your BFF’s addiction overshadows the launch of your wine line.

    I am a sick puppy and cannot wait to watch this. I could care less about Kim and the choices she continues to make. I feel bad for helpless animals and children who have no control over unfortunate situations – rich-ass spoiled former child star who can’t seem to stay on the wagon or deal with her psychoemotional issues? Not so much. Meh…

    I guess it’s possible Kim is already tucked away safely in rehab. Guess we’ll have to wait until after the interview airs to find out.

    Everything out of Kim’s mouth is a lie. She doesn’t even know what the truth is anymore. It’s really sad. GET HELP!

    Well Monty took full responsibility for Kim’s “first” relapse, and as soon as Kingley gets a twitter account, he’ll take full responsibility for her “second” relapse.

      That’s enabling right there. Nobody is ever responsible for your relapse other than yourself, and the “relapse” cycle begins LONG before you pick up the drug or drink. That’s the final step in the regression. If you really know the signs, the road begins well before- when you start behaving like Kim. No accountability, no responsibility, no program, no sponsor, etc. I learned in treatment, and it has proven true to me in my 3 yrs sober- an person’s behavior will tell you everything you need to know about themselves and the state of their “recovery”. Kim’s actions speak for themselves.

    Sigh. In an effort to save $ I decided to become a cord cutter. Now I don’t know what the hell is going on and will have to wait to see the show.

    Even so, Kim’s substance abuse seem more like self-medicating. Kim has other, deeper and perhaps intractable issues going on. God it would suck to get sober work hard to apply the steps only to find you are still crazier than a shithouse rat.
    But at least you’d have a shot at grappling with the read issue, if you’ve got the guts. And I don’t believe Kim does.

    Appropos of nothing, last time I watched Kyle it struck me that even though she can be very annoying, she’s the most grounded and least pretentious of her siblings. It’s kind of scary when Kim gets her to-the-manor born mask on and Kathy does the same from what I’ve seen of her. Sorry for the rambling. Hope it made sense. Ish.

      Apropos of nothing, he said his name was William, or Will, or Mac, or Buddy – and he’s plain ugly to me. I wonder if he’s ever had a day of fun in his whole life.

      I’ve realized Kim is totally into drug culture, like Monty. She’s a very bad addict with the pitbull, the druggy boyfriend, being constantly loopy and thinking it’s funny. Not saying she doesn’t have other issues, because she does.
