Mandy Moore’s New Album: Good Therapy

An artist always seeks solace in their work.  It is an outlet for emotions, and a safe place to get real with their inner self.  Mandy Moore’s new album “Wild Hope” was a much needed therapy session of sorts.

The Walk to Remember star credits the recording process as having pulled her out of a deep depression. Earlier this month she told press, “I’m a pretty positive person, but about a year and a half ago, I felt like someone dimmed the lights. I’ve said depressed before, but it wasn’t that I was incapable of going on about my day. I just felt sad and confused. I was asking, ‘Am I really the person I want to be? Am I really fulfilled?’”

When it comes to addiction, sometimes the issue of what’s right and wrong can get tricky.

According to Access Hollywood, Miss Lohan is going against the counsel of her rehab advisors and moving forward with plans for her 21st birthday blowout.  In addition, friends of Lohan are noticing a turning in her attitude, and sensing that she doesn’t want to be a resident of Promises anymore.
