Rehab Reunion: Julianne and Marriah's Road to Sobriety

I can look at myself in the mirror Today and before I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror, I was disgusted with myself, with everything I was doing and hiding it and lying and all of the crap that comes with it. And now I can look at myself and be like damn, like damn girl.
