91. Mackenzie, hang in there. I'm thinking of you. You are a brave soul. Keep the faith.

92. I find this annoying. She walks the walk and talks the talk as per several heart felt interviews on t.v. about how she's turned over a new leaf, is drug free, blah, blah, blah and it's all nothing but BS.

99. Why don't I feel bad about this? Maybe it's because MacKenzie continues to be self-destructive after being given a big break in life that most people don't get: being a co-star in a primetime TV series. I realize she came from a messed-up family, but that was long ago. Sorry, but drug use is a self-inflicted addiction, not an illness like Parkinson's or M.S. Grow up, MacKenzie, and spend your money in better ways!

100. This is what you get when you are raised in a drug infested environment. She was always around as a child with her father John Phillips when he was shooting heroin, so what does one expect? Sad that she fell off the wagon, get back on Mac, you can do it girl!

102. Its too bad she's fallen, but she can get up again. I had a friend who fell after 18 years clean. It happens, that drug is a killer in more ways then one. Good luck to her

104. This is a real shame. Mackenzie Phillips has been clean for such a long time, and after such a hard struggle, which included her addict father, Mamas and the Papas leader, John Phillips and his wife, Genevieve. Mackenzie has been a role model to countless in their fight to overcome addiction. Wishing Mackenzie love, strength, courage, and all the best with her recovery.
