The partying stops as everyone sobers up in detox, with withdrawal kicking in. Dr. Drew describes withdrawal, in some of the most severe cases as with Mike Starr, as “the worst flu ever” and the physical equivalent of feeling as if your limbs were being squeezed in a vice.
In group therapy, Dr. Drew has each of them discuss their “bottoms” – and by that, he doesn’t mean Mike Starr’s abscessed keyster. By “bottoms,” he means moments where they hit their biggest lows. Mackenzie Phillips talks about her most recent bust at LAX, standing on a baggie of heroin that fell out of her pants and telling the fuzz she wasn’t holding. Mindy McCready didn’t want to put her boyfriend in jail, even though he beat her repeatedly, to the point that he almost killed her. In the midst of all of these revelations, Rodman refuses to acknowledge that he ever had a bottom, painting himself as a Zen master in Ed Hardy. The group calls him on being completely full of crap.
