Her honesty is her strength

I’m just glad she finally got to take that sip

I completely agree with Drew that it's better to let go of the pain from parents otherwise it tortures both of you. And I've forgiven as well. Drew is literally a role model to me in that respect.

Drew is a phenomenon. She's absolutely amazing

Great interview. She has definitely been through hell and come out the other side. Her best line is that she is not her daughters friend - she's her mother. Bravo!

I feel like I've watched Drew go threw so much in life. We are the same age and I've loved her since E.T., Firestarter, and Cats Eye.. As a teenager I remember all the magazine headlines of her doing drugs, being bad, and I think there was one thing that even included guns. (Ironic, she did a movie called Gun Crazy) And now she's one of the most inspirational actresses. Good movies, her own production company, talk show... She's awesome and a beautiful person. I'll always admire her.

One of the rare child actors to come out of it ok. I have new respect after hearing this.

You listen to Drew talking and it’s hard to not fall in love. She’s so personable and likable and nice. Qualities that seem to lack in most people these days.

This is why I love this show, Drew gives her heart and it’s just so great to hear. Baba booey

This was deeply moving, I certainly appreciate your honesty dearest Drew on such a sad and dark/unfortunate chapter that we all generally have and still go through. I’m adopted and was abandoned by my biological mother we are still estranged till this day. She has not made or taken any initiative to be in my life, my dad sadly was different and tried to be more loving to me but his addiction ended up taking him in the end.🥀 I made it this far, perhaps I can and will still go even further than I could imagine...😔💛🌏 Thank you Drew for the movingly encouraging words...

Wisdom. She paid a high price for it, but boy does she have it.

My daughter was admitted to a psych facility last week at the age of 10. It's horrifying

lol that is literally all my mom says! she's always like "im not your friend, im your mother" and honestly I wouldn't have it any other way. I didn't need a friend, I had friends and ive noticed the friends I had who had parents that were the "friends", those kids have had some issues growing up and being independent and being mature. now my mom and I are friends at 25 and its great because she's taught me what she needed and now we can just get along. I think the parenting approach of "im going to be your friend" isn't a good one in general unless you have a balance and certain boundaries. Obviously Drew is a special case since she was also in the public eye at such a young age

I am seriously so proud of Drew

Very intense interview... Easily spot how emotional Drew got talking about her Marriage, kids and Mother...

People don't understand we are all human.

Good for Drew. I fell out with my mom for a period a few years ago and now we text periodically. I had to forgive her for myself, not her. Especially since she won't own up to her neglectful ways during my childhood.

I remember watching Barrymore in E.T. We're the same age, and the first time I watched it, I didn't fully understand it. And she lived it!

so mature. love this woman

She is one of a kind ❤️

She is such a strong woman!

She's always great with Howard.

One of the great truths of the human condition is: "Adversity builds Character, so that Character can then challenge and reshape Adversity." Nietzsche phrased it this way: "Out of life’s school of war - What does not kill me makes me stronger (Friedrich Nietzsche, "Twilight of the Idols," 1888)." Good for you, Drew! (Amor Fati / Dancing in your chains / Glass half full / Cloud silver lining)

So glad she got through it

Considering that Howard used to have Jaid on his show, for the entertainment, Drew shows a lot of equanimity about all this with him.

She is fantastic

Some people are happy and lucky to have met each other, some of us not so much. Love and accept YOU and maybe it happens if not is ok

Letting go is key

Drew Barrymore Rocks

What a lovely woman...

Love Drew 💖💖💖

❤🙏✌ Love you all ! Happy belated birthday Drew!

Just wow. I'm going to save this.

After the Jade Barrymore visits and hearing how they didn’t talk, it’s nice to see this saga end with healing and their relationship back on track. Sterns been around so long he has these sort of sagas play out and come full circles over 30 years

I love her

Wish we lived in a country where certain words could be said on both satellite radio AND daytime television. You know she'd love to say fvck even once on her show.

Maybe her mother is a narcissist. She should still beware

my mother also says that she is not supposed to be my friend

Love Drew ! She's got such a great attitude and heart. If I was a guy I would definitely be on that app trying to date her ! 😆 lol

I hate the language Drew. Love your shoe, more gracious. Love your maturity.

Didn't Howard have her Mother on the show all the time?

💕💕💕💕💕

I institutionalized myself, best decision I ever made. #thebipolartruth

❤👏

😢

Am I the only one who can't listen to her any more without thinking of SNL's Chloe Fineman's dead on impression?

howard stern the therapist

Drink from the cup !

Get this i was put in drug rehab twice two different summers in a row and the kick was i wasn't on drugs🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 fun times, fun times

13 is way too young to be locked up

✌

That's traumatizing to put a 13 year old in that...I know how it is to be a mother..I would never do that to my kids..never! What Drew's mother did to her..sorry..that's too much!

Psych hospital are the worse experience in the world

Bro

1st

With all due respect ... "babababababababababababababababababababababababababababababababa"
