The Maine native drank for the first time at just 13 with her older brother Mike, then moved on to pot one year later. "We went to T.G.I. Friday's and in a haze I said, 'Do you guys feel like we're in a movie?'" she recalls.

At 14, the now 31-year-old headed to a rave (or 90's dance party). Despite the atmosphere, Kendrick's brother told her she needed to wait two years to dabble in hard drugs. "Mike told me I wouldn't be allowed to take Ecstasy until I was 16, which was fine with me since I found navigating new environments hard enough when I was sober," she writes.
