Ever since we have seen Tara Reid the last time, she has been trough a lot of problems, especially with her alcohol addiction. It seems that at one moment she decided to admit to herself that she has alcohol problems and that helped her to entirely change her life. "When I go back to when my life went wrong, it all came back to alcohol. I wasn't myself completely and I wasn't happy. I numbed my feelings. It was no life to live" , she declared.

And now it looks like she wants to go on with her life. We will just pass over the fact that the surgery procedure that she did left Tara with a odd looking stomach. But comparing to the fact that she was an alcohol addicted, that isn’t so bad.

In order to put her life on a right road, she tries to spend as much time as she can feeling good. So recently she was seen on the beach in Santa Monica with her tiny pet dog. She looked almost skinner then before, but the fact that she decided to show up in public it is a sign of rehabilitation and self trust. So we will just hope that she will recover completely very soon and that we will see her on the screen at least as wonderful as she was in 'American Pie'.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Tara represents the Goddess of Wideness, Peace and Protection.
