Speaking specifically about Demi's alcohol addiction, Tallulah says she feared the times her mother would relapse because of how much her personality would change, she explains:

"It's like the sun went down and like, a monster came…I remember there's just the anxiety that would come up in my body when I could sense that her eyes were shutting a little bit more."
