Michael Jackson<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s daughter, Paris Jackson<\/strong><\/a>, opened up about her personal struggles while she suffered from addiction.<\/p>\n \u201cThe behavior is really ugly. It\u2019s really ugly behavior in a moral way, because I was raised to be kind \u2014 and not nice,\u201d Paris, 28, said during a Tuesday, May 26, appearance on Jack Osbourne<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cTrying Not to Die\u201d<\/a> podcast. \u201cI could give a s**t about being nice \u2014 but being kind and looking people in the eye and asking the waiter their name so you can write it down on the receipt later, just little things of, just like, how do you treat people?\u201d<\/p>\n Paris recalled going through \u201cyears and years and years of self-hatred\u201d before achieving sobriety<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201c\u2018Oh, I may be a liar, a cheater, a piece of s**t, a thief, whatever, but I do have a good moral compass, like, I was raised right in that way. What happens when I drink is that goes away,\u201d she said. \u201cThat goes right out the window and I become a very vindictive person.\u201d<\/p>\n Paris confessed she had other personal struggles before turning to alcohol and drugs.<\/p>\n \u201cI struggled with self-harm for a really long time before I ever had my first drink or drug. I had weird relationships with overeating and food as a young kid,\u201d she recalled. \u201cThere was this overall reachy, graspy energy that I only ever see in other addicts. Reaching for something outside of yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n Paris shared that she went to treatment \u201cseveral times\u201d before \u2014 and after \u2014 starting her sobriety journey.<\/p>\n Over the years, Paris has been candid about how she has struggled with addiction since her teen years. Last year, Paris revealed that she achieved a major milestone in her sobriety<\/a>.<\/p>\n
