Poor thing.

Diff’rent Strokes star Todd Bridges has opened up about his past as a victim of sexual abuse and drug addiction in his new book, Killing Willis, and now has revealed he became a drug dealer at 22 to work off his $30,000 debt!

However, he couldn’t stop doing the drugs he was selling!

Bridges says:

“I worked four different hotels and I had five girls that worked on the streets. I hated myself. I hated the way I looked in the mirror. I believed everything people said about me.”

We’re so glad he was able to clean up his act and get his life together! That’s a lot better than most in his position seem to do.
