Kim -- who admitted she's an alcoholic during a segment on the show's recent reunion special -- told US magazine Thursday the positive lessons she learned going through rehab “doesn't make me want to walk away from anything. 

"It makes me want to step out in front of everything and just say, 'You know what, anybody can do it,’” the 47-year-old socialite aunt of Paris Hilton said.  “I don't want to walk away from anything in my life. It's part of life: facing it!"

“My family and friends--without them I just couldn't do it. My fans have been so supportive. People walk up to me and they just hug me and cry. That's so rewarding to me” Richards said. “It was a rough road to get here, but I'm really, really good. 

“I'm really taking the time for myself."
