Annoying me that everyone is instantly saying METH, when Cara has a diagnosis of DCD and ADHD. Her erratic behaviour could be the result of either of these.

Whatever the cause I hope she is ok.

I was all set to say that it’s probably just her ADHD as she’s always seemed to have a nervous hyper energy about her and her not “looking after” herself, as I’m she as well groomed as she used to be, until I saw a picture of her smoking a pipe in her car, it unfortunately looks like she’s on meth.

  • as in she’s not as well groomed as she used to be

The video was of her on the way back from Burning Man. I'd be very surprised I drugs weren't involved.

I assume this video? My initial google didn't show this, just photos Confused

She looks coked up to the eyeballs. Not as fun when you're doing it on your own throughout the night and there's no music to disguise your erratic movements.

Yeah. That’s not coke

poor Cara. Can’t imagine the awfulness of my lowest points being recorded and publicised and commented on.

Lesserspotteddogfish · 16/09/2022 19:00

If that’s her dog, I feel sorry for it. She’s definitely not well in that video.

Chronicnamechangererer · 16/09/2022 19:00

Definitely not just coke

newnamethanks · 16/09/2022 19:09

Meth without a doubt. Hope she keeps her teeth. She is in desperate need of assistance, I hope she gets some quickly.

Harrystylestutu · 16/09/2022 19:34

I saw a video of her on stage in November at a concert and she fell off the stage and kept trying to take the microphone off the singer. it was quite uncomfortable to watch. I wish her the best.

why not just be honest and write ‘I fancied a good old gossip about this clearly troubled woman’?

Because that wasn't the purpose of the post. It was to highlight that the woman is neurodivergent and that may influence unusual behaviour.

That’s drugs. I hope she gets help soon.

She looks like a meth addict from those photos/ video.

She's moving about exactly like my teenage son does (same "disorders") when he's stressed. He is 100% not on any drugs.

Obviously there is a high possibility that it's drugs, but I just wanted to highlight the fact that sometimes this type of behaviour can be normal for a neurodivergent person.

FfeminyddCymraeg · 16/09/2022 20:18

ADHD or not, she’s absolutely on crack or meth. Maybe both. Poor girl.

Charlize43 · 16/09/2022 20:21

Totally off her tits! I was waiting for her to eat her dog.

The guy hanging around looks like he's seen it all before, then again it is LA.

No it isn't, and no you didn't.

I don’t know what the other one is, but I have ADHD. Even before I got diagnosed I realised I have to be far far more careful than normal people about any kind substances that can be addictive. All while having less built in impulse control than your average over excited puppy. I failed a lot at putting that into practice.

I made enough of a mess of my life, body & soul when younger to know that if I’d had fame, opportunity, potential for exploitation, funds.. I wouldn’t have made it to my 30s let alone now.

Two things can be true at once. If she has ADHD then a drug, or drugs could be what ails her. I know her name despite not being the right generation to know who she is. But I sincerely hope she gets rescued from the crumbly edge of the cliff, in time to leave her in a position to rescue herself from what remains after the initial crisis is over.

This.

DS has severe ADHD. With zero impulse control and an insatiable need to quiet and control his racing brain, he has also fallen victim to addiction, which in turn has had terrible consequences for his overall mental health. ADHD sufferers are at much higher risk of addiction than the general population.

I’ve not seen the CD footage, but as @AlienatedChildGrown said, it’s not necessarily an either/or situation. I hope she gets the help she needs because ADHD is absolute fucking hell on wheels to live with.

MermaidEyes · 16/09/2022 20:37

Yes, this kind of behaviour can be normal. But she's famous with shitloads of money. Half of LA and the fashion world are on something. So, statistically speaking, it most likely is drugs.

AgnesNaismith · 16/09/2022 20:40

That looks like ketamine to me. She’s not ok and I hope she accepts help soon or she will be dead.

LynetteScavo · 16/09/2022 20:57

Well she's managed to become a successful actress and model with adhd and dcd, but she's now behaving erratically (this isn't a one off) - she's self medicating with something, and the paparazzi are waiting to capture it all for a reason...they can tell when a celeb is off the rails and they're likely to get some juicy pics.

That’s really sad to see.

She looks incredibly erratic but I’m not expert so I can’t say if it’s drugs or medical problems.

No way is that ketamine, my friends and I used to do that back in the day and no-one ever behaved like that, I'd put money on meth or maybe crack

AgnesNaismith · 16/09/2022 21:13

🤷‍♀️ I’ve definitely seen people behave like that on ketamine. Regardless of the drug, the outcome will be the same.

Ohdofuckofdear · 16/09/2022 21:16

Bless her she does look very unwell,I hope she gets the help she so obviously needs and very soon.

consortiar · 16/09/2022 21:17

ThickCutSteakChips · 16/09/2022 17:16

Just looked up the video I assume you are talking about.

Yah.....that ain't no ADHD.

I really hope she gets help very soon, her friends seem very worried about her.
